Experienced child carer
| Hi my name is Ali, I have over 30 years experience in childcare from babysitting, teachers aid, daycare centres , nanny overseas and in Australia and residential care. I have a blue and yellow card, first aid and cpr and a police check
We had an amazing experience with Alison. Our son warmed to her straight away, and it was clear she has a natural way with children. She was always quick to respond, keeping us updated with wonderful photos throughout. It’s evident that Alison is incredibly experienced and well-prepared—she made us feel so at ease knowing our son was in such capable hands. Highly recommend! Will definitely be back. Thanks Alison"

Reliable & Caring Nanny/Babysitter & Home Educator
| Hi, my name is Cassandra and I am a 36 year old Cairns local. I am an experienced nanny with my blue card, police check, First Aid and CPR Childcare certificate, full drivers license and my own reliable car. I can provide you with great references, including my most regular family whom I cared for their 2 year old son 3-4 days per week for 1.5 years (I currently still care for him once per week). I am also a mother of my wonderful 10 year old son who I homeschool and he usually comes with me when I babysit. He is gentle and kind and loves children of all ages and we always receive feedback that the children enjoy being babysat so much more because he is there to play with, and he is a great role model. Being a home educator I am also able to help your kids with homeschooling or school work while I care for them if you like. I am very reliable and you can count on me to have prompt communication with you. I am available to care for your children at my home, or at your home, or take them out on adventures in my car if you provide their car seats. I am also happy to do school pickups/taking to sporting commitments or appointments.
Cassandra helped me immensely, she is a warm and genuine person and my son had the best time at her place. Would highly recommend and have engaged her again."
