Hi there, my name is Mariah and I have recently moved back to Australia after being in New Zealand for 8 years. I was a private nanny while I was studying at University for two boys - aged 2 and 10 when I first started with them. I am also one of the eldest out of my cousins so have a lot of babysitting experience with looking after my younger cousins but have also started looking after my young nieces too. As a private nanny, I would do pick up and drop off duties - both to school and kindy in the mornings and afternoons. As the eldest did a lot of after school activities, I would take him to his activities and take the toddler to the park and would also set up educational activities with him if we had to leave the elder one at his after school activities. I would also help prepare meals for the two kids, help with bathing for the toddler too. and when I would stay home with the toddler if he was sick, I would care for him, help with his nap routine.
