Hi mummies and daddies, I am a friendly and experienced carer from Singapore, fluent in English (first language) & Mandarin. I am passionate about combining positive psychology with early childhood education to give children the best start to their lives, integrating kindness, resilience, positivity and curiosity in my approach.
I have a valid WWCC, full working rights and NSW drivers license, current First Aid + Cpr in childcare (renewed every year from my full time work). I've been living in Bondi with my French-Australian partner for 7 years.
Cert III in early childhood education and care. Have been working full time in several early childhood centres and babysitting around Bondi and Eastern suburbs since 2019. Completed my postgraduate diplomas in Applied Positive Psychology, Psychotherapy and Counselling, with a permanent family visa (no restrictions on work). WWCC + police background check cleared.
I am happy to help out with cleaning, feeding, entertaining, homework, reading, song and dance, some housework during downtime and more :)
I have almost 20 years of paid/volunteer experience in babysitting, private tutoring and storytelling, as well as afterschool playgroups/childcare, children's events and activities, adventure camp counsellor, children's ministry/ sunday school and more!
I am currently working full-time in an early childhood centre and doing regular babysitting in Bondi and Eastern suburbs as well as tutoring academic subjects. I'm interested in casual or regular babysitting work preferably on weekends (or weekdays 6/7pm onwards).
8 hours minimum duration for weekdays (during working hours) Flexible duration (3 hours minimum) for weeknights and weekends. Minimum hourly rate of 30 for 1 child (around bondi area), 35 if located outside Bondi or for 2 children. Would appreciate any street parking information/time limit restriction.
I love reading, storytelling, singing and dancing, art and craft, physical activity and engaging in various educational, hands-on or sensory activities with children. Languages spoken are English (fluent), Mandarin (conversational), as well as basic Cantonese and French.
If you've got animals at home, I'm also great with animal tasks, with many years of experience of keeping more than 10 species of animals of my own.
Fitness and health (physical, mental and emotional) are really important to me so I am often exploring outdoors, exercising or attending various sports classes in my free time.
At present, I live with my French-Australian partner in North Bondi. I love children but he doesn't want any, hence I channel my passion into work :)
