Nanny | Baby & Toddler Specialist | Babysitter | Family Support Rates below | *Please see my reviews and references* I provide warm, reliable care for babies from 8 weeks, toddlers and children through kindergarten and beyond. Babies and young children are my specialty. I offer calm, nurturing care tailored to each child and family, including support with transitions into childcare. I also help households run smoothly with meal preparation, children’s laundry, general tidying, organisation, shopping and pet care. Experienced with neurodivergent children and diverse family circumstances, I bring a calm, consistent approach built on trust, clear communication and reliability. I’ve supported a wide range of Melbourne families, including medical professionals, sole parents, LGBTQ+ and surrogacy families, high-profile households and families navigating separation. Non-smoker and non-drinker, I’m organised, proactive and dependable. Families describe me as calm, trustworthy and a genuine addition to their household.

We now have a second baby, and I’ve felt completely comfortable leaving our 8-week-old with her. She is incredibly experienced, caring, proactive, trustworthy, and somehow manages to refresh the kitchen and household while caring for the children. I feel our children are in very safe hands. This is the highest praise I can give.” Dr Sian R. & Dr Dave H. – Veterinarians (Elwood 5 years) “Liv is a true professional with a wealth of experience. She is kind, thoughtful, honest, reliable, mature, highly organised, and wonderful with children. She goes above and beyond in every aspect of her role, and any family would benefit enormously from her experience and expertise. I would recommend her in a heartbeat.” Peter & Lou – (Albert Park 2 years) “Liv has been with our son since he was 8 weeks old. She is organised, innovative, loving, hardworking, and completely trustworthy. We’ve relied on her for full-time care and overnight stays, and we’ve never worried for a moment. We cannot recommend her highly enough.” J & M Cannon September 2026 To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to provide a reference for Liv H, who has been working with our family as a nanny since August 2025 and continues to do so. Liv currently cares for our youngest daughter, M, one full day each week, and during school holidays she also looks after our eldest daughter, B. Our girls are now 18 months and 5 years old. Throughout her time with us, Liv has also cared for both children together for full days and has completed multiple overnight stays with both girls in her care. She has always demonstrated a calm, capable and nurturing approach, and our children are extremely comfortable and happy with her. Liv is confident with all aspects of childcare, including preparing and serving meals, food preparation for the family, bathing, settling, and ensuring the children are engaged in age-appropriate activities. She is incredibly creative and always has thoughtful ideas for play, walks, outings and activities that keep the girls entertained, stimulated and well cared for. One of Liv's standout qualities is that she consistently goes above and beyond. When the children are settled or napping, she is proactive around the home and happily helps with household tasks such as washing, kitchen clean-up, tidying, and food preparation. She also has an exceptional ability to declutter and organise spaces, including cupboards and drawers, and has genuinely made our home feel more manageable and organised. Coming home after Liv has been with the children is always such a nice feeling because everything has been taken care of, allowing me to focus on spending quality time with my girls. Most importantly, Liv is reliable, punctual and completely trustworthy. Her overnight care of our daughters has been particularly memorable for our family. On several occasions, we have been able to go away knowing the girls were in exceptionally capable hands. This was especially meaningful when M was still very young and required overnight feeds, and Liv handled everything with confidence and care, giving us complete peace of mind. In addition to childcare, Liv has also assisted our family with pet sitting while we have been away, including caring for our dog both at our home and at her own. Liv has become a trusted and valued part of our family, and I would not hesitate to recommend her for any nannying position. She is an outstanding caregiver whose warmth, initiative and professionalism make her a wonderful asset to any household. We feel incredibly fortunate to have her supporting our family and would rehire her without hesitation. Please feel free to contact me via email if you would like any further information. Warm regards, JC. LIV HART • NANNY PACK • SEPTEMBER 2026 If you’re looking for an experienced, calm, and dependable nanny who genuinely enjoys supporting both children and parents, I’d love to hear from you. Please feel free to get in touch to discuss your family’s needs or arrange future bookings.

"We engaged with Liv at the eleventh hour to help nanny our 6yo and our 6 month old. From our very first conversation over the phone to meeting in person some 3 hours later, she’s been so warm, genuine and lovely to deal with! My 6 month old who is a Covid baby and usually quite wary of strangers immediately warmed up to her. Liv also made us feel really comfortable and assured by sending us hourly updates, pictures and even made a list of the baby’s feed and nap times for me since it was our first time working together. She also found the time to clean out our very embarrassing refrigerator and cutlery drawer! I highly recommend Liv and would not hesitate to engage with her again! Thanks once again, you were a lifesaver Liv!"
From Lausanne - Kooyong
"Liv was absolutely amazing. Straight away we could tell she was experienced and comfortable. Our two year old is a covid baby and gets upset when we leave. Liv knew exactly how to ease the situation by taking her out on her bike when we left. Our ten year old said Liv was his favourite babysitter ever. Liv cleaned the kitchen and did some much needed reorganisation of the cupboards. We couldn’t recommend her more. We came home to a house that was cleaner than when we left and two very happy children. "
From Inamul - Prahran
"Liv was amazing with our 2 year old. She made an extra effort to get to know him via facetime as it was a once off babysitting while we were in Melbourne. He was really happy and went through his normal night time routine. Liv kept us updated frequently and even unpacked the dishwasher which was highly appreciated! I would highly recommend Liv. Thanks again!"
From Joanne - Docklands
"Our daughter was asleep, but Liv had such a warm and gentle personality we can’t wait for her to look after our daughter while she’s awake. We felt so comfortable leaving the house with her there, she even tidied our fridge and cupboards, did the washing up and hung out some washing from the machine! Absolute gem."
From Rhiannon - Millers Point
"Liv is absolutely amazing! Cannot rate her highly enough. She has been with Bobby and I since he was 8 weeks old and we would be lost without her. She is super organised, innovative, loving, honest, hard working. She is always thinking ahead to his next stage of development. My home has never been so organised!!"
From Peter - Albert Park
"Liv is lovely. She’s so easy to deal with and made us feel comfortable straight away. Our daughter was very happy to be around her. She kept us updated throughout the evening with lots of photos and even bonded with our two little doggies. Highly recommend. "
From Marlon - South Yarra
"Liv has been really good. Although my children didn't meet her as it was a night shift, I am sure they would love her lovely and gentle manners. Liv was very punctual in reply to my messages and she sent us regular updates about how the night was going."
From Giorgia - Albert Park
"Liv was great, the kids warmed to her immediately and we felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. The kids had a great time and we would not hesitate to use Liv again."
