Hi families! 👋🏼 My name is Orlaith and I’m a qualified primary teacher from Ireland who has recently relocated to Melbourne. I’m a warm, reliable, and enthusiastic caregiver who genuinely loves caring for children and supporting their development in a safe, fun, and nurturing environment ✨. Alongside my teaching background, I have many years of hands-on experience nannying and babysitting children of all ages, from small babies to older children. Back home in Ireland, I also worked with a professional nannying agency, which strengthened my ability to adapt quickly to different family dynamics, routines, and parenting styles while always maintaining the highest standards of care. With my background in education and childcare, I bring a calm, structured, and caring approach to every role. I understand the importance of routines, patience, and positive reinforcement in helping children feel secure, confident, and happy 🤗. I’m confident caring for multiple children at once and supporting everything from feeding, nap times, and bedtime routines to homework help, school runs, and engaging play. I’m highly responsible, organised, and attentive, and I always prioritise a child’s safety and wellbeing. I love planning age-appropriate activities that encourage creativity, learning, and fun — whether that’s arts and crafts, reading, outdoor play, or imaginative games — while also being mindful of each child’s individual needs 🧩. Families often describe me as kind, trustworthy, and dependable. I take great pride in being someone parents can fully rely on and someone children feel comfortable, happy, and safe around. Clear communication with parents and respect for each family’s values and routines are very important to me. I’m excited to meet lovely families in Melbourne and would love the opportunity to provide high-quality, professional, and genuinely caring support in your home 🥰. I look forward to becoming a trusted and positive presence in your child’s life and your family’s routine! Qualifications & Certifications: ✔ Qualified Primary School Teacher (Ireland) ✔ Bachelor’s Degree in Education ✔️ Working With Children Check ✔️ VIT Registration ✔ Police Check ✔ Protecting Children - Mandatory Reporting Certificate ✔️ ASCIA Anaphylaxis Training Certificate

Dear Host Family, Hi, How are you? I hope you’re doing well. First, let me briefly introduce myself. My name is Marina Yamamoto and I’m from Nagoya Japan. I used to live in the United States for 2 years. I was taking care of 2 boys(5&8years old) and 3 girls(4,7,10 years old) I was an au pair! I’m a very hardworking and trustworthy person. My child care experience is fun and exciting, I have experience in volunteering and after-school care. I took care of a total of 70 children. And that's a total of 2390 hours. Children's ages range from 2 to 14 years. I played with the children, helped with their homework, made various things with origami, went to the park and play there, and saw the cherry blossoms. And of course, we take care of them and keep an eye on them all the time. I like taking care of kids because they are so cute I also learned something with every kid that I’ve taken care of. If you are interested in Japanese culture, I can teach you the correct pronunciation of Japanese, the order of writing kanji, and calligraphy. Many Japanese people have an accent, but I can speak the standard language. I studied at a voice actor school for about 3 years, so I can speak beautiful Japanese. I took very strict lessons to become a voice actress, so I don't have any bad sounds in Japanese. And I can speak the Osaka dialect and Nagoya dialect because of my parents' influence. Let's study together if we have the opportunity. Nowadays, I have many opportunities to teach kanji in after-school care, so I am also good at teaching hiragana, katakana, and kanji. In addition, I have been learning calligraphy for about 15 years, so I can write beautiful Japanese. I would be happy if I could share more about my life experience with you. I'm looking forward to meeting and talking with you. I think I meet all the criteria for becoming a nanny. I promise to share my knowledge with your children and do my best to help your kid to grow as an independent and strong child like me. I am planning to go to school for EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION. I hope to see you soon. Thank you very much.

Hi mums and dads! my name is Makenzi and I’m a 24-year-old completing my third year of a four year double degree in Arts and Primary Education at Monash University. I’ve already completed a Bachelor degree of Criminology and Criminal Justice at Swinburne and during this time I realized my passion is actually teaching young children. I love the early learning of young children and aspire to be the best example and teacher to all young children. I commenced my own studies at Firbank Grammar in the early learning centre and was a Firbank student right through until I completed year 12 in 2019. For the past three years I’ve been working for a family based in Glen Iris commencing when their young daughter was 10 months old as sadly her mum Amanda is a paraplegic after a tragic accident. My role included looking after Eadie from 7.30 am to 5.30 pm multiple days a week and ensuring her well being physically and assisting with her growth, learning and behavioral needs throughout the day. I also assisted around the home with  any tasks required including cooking, washing, general tidying, running errands and providing support to Amanda  when needed. I also casually assist a family with two primary school aged girls as both parents are busy working doctors. This role includes school drop offs, sometimes pick up’s and after school activities. I am a caring, responsible, thought-provoking, energetic, empathetic and passionate young woman who strives to teach and care for young children with their best interests always as the priority. I would love the opportunity to discuss this further with you in the role that you have advertised on babysitting.com so if you’d like to reach out and have a chat please contact me on 0403 725 850 My availability is: Monday all day Tuesday 10 - 2:30 Wednesday 10 - 2:30 Thursday 10 - 2:30 Friday 10 - 2:30 I do school drop off and school pick up Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday for eadie hence the hours. I can supply references on request. Regards Makenzi Blackman
