Hello Mums and Dads! If you are looking for attachment parenting, gentle parenting, and the Shichida Japanese learning style method, look no further. Shichida is a method of learning that I used to help my 5 year old son learn to read from very young. Your child can learn to read early too! God has blest me with 2 beautiful children aged 6 and 8. I was a stay home mum right up until my daughter started kindergarten as I wanted to practice the Aristotle type of teaching to help create a strong family bond and to practice attachment parenting. I have good memories babysitting children since I was a teenager. I remember helping look after my little brother and sister who are 13 and 14 years younger than me. I am the eldest child of 5 siblings. I even remember looking after my sister who is 7 years younger than me too. I was acting as 'Go-Care' for my mother who had a family day care private practice from her home for a decade, so she could leave me with up to 4 kids to go to the shops or the bank. As a teenager, I was a primary school tutor in my neighbourhood. I also was a professional private nanny in my mid 20s. A couple of my neighbours who I know and my mother and sister and I, have a reputation in our street as child educators/nannies, so if I am unwell and cannot come to work, I always give parents the contact details of one of my friends who are also on the Juggle Street app or are local babysitters. I won't come to work if I am sick, so I hope you have a backup plan. Don't worry, I look after my health very well and I have a strong immune system, so I don't usually get sick. I have helped out amazing families since I was 17- 40 years old, whether it was tutoring, babysitting or as a live-in nanny. Sometime parents ask me to drive their children to extra curricular activities like gymnastics or other classes, and I do so. I'm flexible, I even look after children from my home in Ashbury along with a friendly 5 year old boy, so if you are looking for a mummy nanny, I am able to help your family out at a reduced rate. I am forever grateful for the privilege to look after children, and it's pretty special bumping into these children when they are e.g. in uni and seeing them all grown up into mature adults. I love children of all ages and believe the whole world would be a better place if we all had the good qualities that children have! I especially enjoy caring for 0-2 years old, because it's so easy to keep them happy and teach them to read. I find it rewarding teaching them during the genius period of their life (0-3), as I know it will give them a head start to kindergarten. I enjoy meeting their needs and keeping them 100% happy all the time, and when I hold a baby, I feel like I'm holding a bundle of peace in my arms. I care for children to be in a mould free and clean environment. If your house is dirty and your child is a crawler, and you leave baby wipes or vinegar lying around, I won't be able to resist the urge to give the house a wipe down. If you are looking for a deep clean of your whole house, I have an ABN and charge differently as cleaning is a very physically demanding job. If you are looking for someone to do homework with a child who doesn't like to do homework or if you need help disciplining children, I can refer you to someone who is a primary school teacher and nanny on Juggle Street. I have also worked as an overnight babysitter and am happy to do this again, as I have a good support network. My kids have a super auntie and super grandmother which allows me to work as a professional full time nanny. Sometimes parents ask me what my overnight rate is, just a friendly reminder on Juggle Street, parents choose the rate, so please feel free to choose. I am not a fan of screen time for children, and definitely not a fan of control crying with babies. I believe you can't spoil a child under 2 years old and crying is bad for a babies brain. A baby always cries for a reason and we must always respond to a child's needs. I'm happy to limit the amount of screen time your child has, as I prefer to educate or play with kids, and I know that the more screen time a child has, the more chance there is for the child to develop ADHD. I'm happy to do baking with your children or take them on exhursions, train your children how to make friends or how to wash and dry hands properly or to pick up toys at the end of the day, or anything else you want, so I hope you let me know. When a parent gives me a list of ideas/expectations or their child's program, I always follow the checklist. I understand that parents sometimes prefer to interview several nannies before they decide on one nanny to find the best fit for their family, so feel free to text where and when you would like to meet, or text the time you would like to chat via video call. I prefer to travel to work by car, so I hope there is street parking for me đ I have a Working With Children Check, First Aid Certificate, Police Check, ABN and public liability insurance and NDIS screening check. Send me your email address, if you would like me to email you my resume and character references etc. I am available from 6.30am Monday to Saturday. For any further information please do not hesitate to contact me on 0406 363 131.
I gain my childcare experience from both work and life. I am the eldest of 5 siblings, have 2 children of my own, as well as have babysitted the children of an amazing Doctor who taught me so much as well as other families.
I have a certificate IV in Workplace Assessment and Training. I have 5 years of experience helping children 6 months old up to 6 years old to develop a strong photographic memory through the Shichida Japanese style of learning. I find it particularly exciting working with children around 3 years old and under, as this is the "genius period".
