Childcare Educator / Babysitter
| Hello lovely family! My name is Ceyda, but you can call me Jay! I’m a reliable, family-oriented Childcare Educator/Babysitter, aged 25. With three years of experience in childcare, I’ve had the pleasure of immersing myself in Australian culture while caring for children from different families. •My recent experience was with a family with two boys aged 8 and 12. —I have references available upon request. Currently, I’m studying for a Diploma in Early Childhood Education because I’m passionate about guiding children to grow and ensuring their happiness and well-being. I’m friendly, energetic, passionate, reliable, and knowledgeable about caring for children of all ages. Aside from childcare, I care deeply about sustainability and psychology. I enjoy doing arts and crafts, fun activities, and stimulating play to engage children. I’m also happy to help with household tasks like dishes, cooking meals, and tidying up. (I am good at cooking). -WWCC -Non smoker -Own transportation -English,Turkish,Italian I’m excited to hear from you and be part of your child’s journey! Warm regards, Jeyda
My 7-year-old daughter enjoyed spending time with her. The babysitter was punctual and kept me informed about their activities throughout the day. This was great because I knew that my daughter was getting along with her and was doing well. I also appreciated that the babysitter took the time to learn about my daughter's interests before coming to care for her. Any family would be fortunate to have her as a babysitter."

Early Childhood Teacher seeks nannying on mondays or fridays
| I am only available on mondays and fridays and fridays. I have worked in childcare for ten years, the majority of which time I have been a Room Leader. I have a Bachelor of Education (birth to five years). I am a strong advocate for children and their rights, and believe in personalised care and education. The family are the most influential people in a child's life, and I enjoy listening to your expertise and sharing my own with you. I believe we must work together in order to do what is best for your child/ren so they can achieve their best. This is crucial because the most development of our entire lives occurs in these early years. My priority is to ensure that your child/ren is/are happy and that I have a trusting and reciprocal relationship with them. Only then will they be able to play and learn. My extensive experience and academic background will allow me to plan and implement a range of engaging experiences that are based on your child/ren's interests, skills and developmental needs. For more, please see my fb page, Phoebe - professional nanny.
