Experienced and organised child carer

| As a dedicated babysitter with over six years of experience, I have developed a strong skill set that ensures a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for children of all ages. My background includes: - Child Development Knowledge: Understanding children's developmental milestones allows me to create age-appropriate activities that promote learning, creativity, and physical activity. - Safety Conscientiousness: I prioritize safety by maintaining a clean, hazard-free space and am trained in first aid and CPR, ensuring peace of mind for parents. - Strong Communication Skills: I communicate effectively with both children and parents. - Creative Activity Planning: I organize fun, educational activities that stimulate children's imaginations and keep them engaged, from arts and crafts to outdoor games. In addition to providing attentive care, I effectively use children's downtime as an opportunity to maintain a tidy and organized home environment, including: - Preparing dinners that cater to child and parent - Cleaning the kitchen - Unpacking the dishwasher - Organizing and preparing children's lunches for school - Handling laundry - Vacuuming and mopping

We had a fantastic experience with Ally. She was not only friendly and professional, but wonderful with our toddler who had a ball playing with her. Ally was punctual and kept us informed throughout the evening about how things were going. Our little one had a great time and we felt at ease knowing he was in such capable hands."

Kind, caring and responsible child minder in the South Melbourne area.

| My name is Lisa. I am 25 years old and from Dublin Ireland. I have a degree in Logistics and Supply Chain Management with plans to change career and pursue a Masters in Primary Education. I have over 8 years experience babysitting and nannying and I am confident in my ability with children. I am also currently working as a nanny part-time for a family here in Melbourne. I have been a dancer since the age of 4 when I began Stage School for singing, acting and different types of dancing such as tap, jazz and hip hop. I am also a retired competitive Irish Dancer. In both my Irish dance school and stage school I spent many summers helping at camps and at weekly classes with the younger students. I am also a calm individual but also love to have fun with the children through games, crafts, singing and dancing. I love to cook healthy meals for myself and my partner and I am also not afraid of any housework that may need to be done. I can also provide references upon request.

Lisa nannies for my 11 month old daughter each week and we are very happy with her. Lisa is responsive, warm and caring and my baby took to her straight away. Lisa is the first person outside of family members that my daughter has been left with and there were no issues at all, she has been very happy in her care. I would definitely recommend Lisa as a nanny."

20-year-old French-English bilingual university student studying Science living in North Fitzroy

| Hi parents and carers!! If you are looking for an enthusiastic, reliable, nurturing and attentive, bubbly, playful and responsible babysitter who takes initiative and has experience, you've come to the right place! I am currently studying Biomedicine with the intention of going onto (paediatric) medicine afterwards, so I have a passion for caring for and spending time with others, especially the ever-creative mini-humans of the world. I've grown up as the eldest sibling and cousin, always the assigned caretaker and babysitter and thus have spent endless hours caring and playing. My professional experience includes babysitting children from 6 months to 13 years old, both during the day and at night (including putting to bed, etc.) in both English and French (having grown up speaking both). I love exploring, going on adventures, storytelling, reading, using my imagination, getting creative and creating (stories, lego buildings, paintings, songs, you name it!) and spending as much time outdoors and with nature as possible! Furthermore, I have been first aid trained and have a valid WWCC. Hope to hear from you soon :) Thalia
