Hi Mums and Dads.
I’m a mature aged mum of four beautiful young ladies who I’m so proud to call my daughters. Im also a grandmother to one very special and sweet little princess and 4 adorable grandsons.
I come from a European background. The youngest of four. Born and have lived in Sydney, Australia my whole life.
I’m also an Aunty to 9 nieces and nephews and a great Aunt to 12. Many of whom I have looked after from time to time.
I recently stopped working my full time corporate role.
I enjoy going to yoga, cooking, painting, gym and I’m currently trying very hard to learn piano and expanding on my vocabulary.
Im also greatful for a very loving and supportive partner who makes me smile every day!
I have been part of Juggle St for the past 6 years and have met so many sweet wonderful children and their families.
Naturally I also look after my grandchildren when their parents are in need.
When I became a mother, I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to leave work and be at home to raise my daughters until the last one was off to school.
Whilst my own mum worked and lived some distance away and my husband ran a family business from dusk til dawn, I was pretty much the primary carer of our 4 girls. Raising them while juggling the household chores, cooking meals and running around between swimming lessons, dance classes for different age groups at different times and birthday parties. I do understand the pressures, ....that guilty feeling of being torn between spending quality time with your children versus LIFE...and the chores. I recall what relief an extra pair of arms were for my sanity and piece of mind :)
Having said all that, I don’t have any formal childcare qualifications, but I think I’m safe to say that Im well seasoned and pretty much completed my training on the job in real time and situations. There is nothing, no text book that beats first hand experience. My daughters are a testament to that and my greatest pride.
Friends and family know me well for my patience and my gentle placid nature.
I do have a natural tendency to nurture and protect. My love and admiration for children and their ability to often fascinate me and teach me, YES, teach me :) with their knowledge can cause me to break out into laughter at their insights, questions or their funny little ways. Equally, there is a time to be serious, rational and to listen to what could be causing them some distress and gently helping them manage their way out of that.
Caring for children particularly now that mine are grown, rewards me in a way that still makes me feel needed and gives me a great sense of being able to contribute in a positive way to those children and parents who may be looking for a helping hand. If you are looking for a caring, positive and very young at heart grandmother who has some wisdom and some of those good old foundations and qualities that can only come from lifes experiences, then I’m sure you won’t be sorry.
Will share with you what one very wise woman told me when I was raising my girls. “Today’s children are tomorrow’s leaders. Don’t be afraid to show them love, warmth and care, but along the way also be mindful to instil in them ( the tools that we have been given to to teach them with ) ie: respect, consideration, discipline and understanding”. These are some life gifts that every child deserves from the adults in their life particularly in those first years. And although it’s “not always easy” as my mother often said, they will be sure to thank you one day, and you will be proud to see your children living a happy and well rounded life as as adults.
Nothing more rewarding than being able to smile knowing that all the years of hard work were well worth the effort. It can be a challenge balancing and juggleing the two, but I guess too that considering the enormity of a human life....and putting that into perspective....no one that has been successful raising children has ever said it was easy :)
And I can honestly say, that after all these years with my own daughters, my mum was absolutely right!
So easy to get caught up in little ones cuteness, so easy to forget just how important a job we have as adults to give them the best foundations for what will be the majority of their life as adults.
At this stage, I welcome casual opportunities to parents who are in need of a babysitter in the late afternoon/evenings weekdays. I’m also open for babysitting on weekends.
I’m friendly and easy going. Open to building to a trusted friendship.
Please note that my new rate in 2025 is $40 p.h.
I have extensive experience in childcare, supported by a formal Diploma in Early Childhood Education. Throughout my career, I have worked with children of various age groups, fostering their development in safe, nurturing, and stimulating environments. My role has included planning and implementing age-appropriate activities that support cognitive, emotional, and social growth while ensuring children's well-being and safety at all times.
I have worked in the childcare industry for more than 10 years. I have worked in various settings such as schools, preschools, childcare centres and also babysitting in homes.
I’m a gentle, happy, calm, easy going educator who likes to have fun. I believe the best interests of the child should come first. This means the children’s safety and health are a priority.
Hi mums and dads, I have several years of experience caring for my nephew, niece, friends’ children and recent experience working as a nanny and babysitter.
I regularly help with babysitting, after-school pickups, driving children to activities, supervising play, reading together, assisting with homework, cooking meals, bath time, and packing lunches for the next day. I truly enjoy looking after children of all ages — from babies and toddlers to school-aged kids — and I love making our time together fun, engaging, and comforting. Creating a safe and happy environment where children can learn, play, and feel supported is really important to me.
I have a WWCC and I am first aid and CPR certified having completed the training this year.
I’d love to help your family and look forward to hearing from you.
Hi,
I am the eldest of 5 children in my family, therefore have always been around young children. Growing up in these circumstances has inspired me to want to care for and work with children. I am a fun, loving, caring and respectful university student, who has been raised with great family morals and values, which I always live up to and share with those around me. I come from an Italian family background, therefore I can speak, read and write in Italian. I am also very creative when it comes to my personal interests and passion for music and dance!
Hi mums and dads, I have over 20 years childcare experience. I have worked in centres and homes caring for and nurturing children.
Hi everyone, I have experience taking care of my friends’ kids and consider myself a patient person, so I’m quite comfortable around children.
I am studying in early childhood education and care, and I have a first aid certification.

I have worked as a travel agent and business owner for over 18 years before becoming a dedicated support worker. I have been working as a support worker within Mable since 2018 and have experience working with a wide variety of customers. I enjoy supporting my clients achieve their goals and overcome the challenges they may have, I believe everyone has the right to enjoy life regardless of disability, illness or circumstance.
I connect with my clients by sharing my culture and love of cooking. I have always been a caring person by nature and find great joy in helping others & I love children enjoy playing times & encourage them with homework and activities according to their ages.
I am proud of the work I have achieved so far and have been regarded as “one of Mable’s most highly recommended support workers. My position on the disability advisory council is to represent the views and experiences of support workers.”
Also becoming an ambassador for Mable has given me great experience attending seminars, disability Exposition where I’m able to share great times with real people.
Being a support worker has been a rewarding career, if you care you are half way there!!

Hi I am Monica - A little about me, I am a Nanny and Mum I have always had a strong interest in learning about child development. One of my passions has always been soccer, and sharing that with junior teams was such an enjoyable experience. This experience really showed me the importance of viewing something from the child's perspective in order to effectively explain the concepts of the game.
I am now a qualified Early Childhood Educator with experience in Long Day Care Centres, Nannying, Babysitting and now as a Mum! I enjoy getting to know children and their current interests whether they like craft, reading stories, constructing lego or a visit to the park. I aim to support younger children achieve developmental milestones while taking time to assist older children's growing independence with their routine tasks throughout the day.
