I’ve been babysitting since 2015 and absolutely love it, I think there’s something fun and different to love about kids at every age! My favourite things to do with kids is definitely art, I’m very creative myself and seeing kids make masterpieces really inspires me. I’m a psychology Honours graduate so really value helping kids to explore their emotions with gentle curiosity, and also have a lot of experience soothing difficult feelings. My dream is to one day become a child psychologist.

"Jessica is wonderful and was great looking after our 6 month old daughter last night. She was very reliable, a great communicator, and is clearly a natural with children. Our little one took a while to settle but this didn’t phase Jessica and she kept me updated just like I had asked. We would definitely select her again - thank you!"

Childcare Experience

I have experience babysitting kids of all ages - I have volunteered at the Royal Children’s so have looked after premies, and I have looked up to every age from then until high-school, including experience volunteering at kindergartens. I’m very skilled in tailoring my approach to match the age of the children and their individual personalities, temperaments and needs. I have experience in multiple types of jobs, such as school drop-offs or pickups, morning and evening routines, late nights, long days, activities outside of the home, and so on. I am also happy to help with some light cleaning and tidying around the house as I am a very organised and neat person:

Tutoring Experience

I have tutored a late high-school aged student since 2018, helping with general study and organisational skills, as well as helping to complete assignments. I helped with all subjects, but provided extra help in sociology, humanities, English, psychology, and Visual Arts. I completed the IBDP myself so I have experience in how the program works. I also have experience in tutoring catered towards neurodiversity, namely ADHD and autism. I am able to provide emotional support to manage the extra demands of neurodiversity and how it impacts study, and also teach organisational and study skills tailored to the unique qualities of the student’s neurodiverse experience.
