Hi, I’m an Early Childhood Teacher, currently taking some time off, and looking for casual work. My availability is very flexible so don’t hesitate to get in contact to see if we can make something work.
I love kids and have experience looking after newborns through to teenagers. I’d love to meet you first if possible to go over everything and help the children in feeling safe when time comes for me to babysit.
I have a car, I’m reliable and have all the required qualifications for the job. I look forward to meeting you :)

I have an interest in early childcare and also do some casual babysitting.
I can have fun while still being responsible.

Lover of Babysitting
I am currently a 4th year student completing my Bachelor of Medical Radiation Science (Radiation Therapy). I am a big sister to 3 siblings and have always looked after them as well as two nephews (ages 3 and 1 year) who i often look after. I love spending time with little kids and helping them learn about the world and seeing joy on their faces when they see their loved ones at the end of the day. I also love to see parents being able to have time alone from their kids as a break and some stress relief and i believe every parent should have that chance. I am very happy to negotiate pricing if you feel like you cannot afford the rate i am offering. I am happy to do any cleaning and extra chores you need done (washing clothes and dishes etc) and am happy to cook for your little ones. I can make a large variety of meals, healthy and tasty that kids will love. My older sister (mum to my nephews) says I am her dream housewife and I am happy to take some stress of her shoulders and look after my nephews so her and hubby can enjoy a little date night every once and awhile. I am happy to take the kids to a park or any after school duties needed and am fully licensed with a car. I can also fit carseats or am happy for you to do this if you are more comfortable. I am able to do nighttime routines and help your kids with dinner bath and bed of an evening. I am also able to look after them during the day and happy to do overnights if needed. All of which i have done multiple times for my sister and nephews. I also have a current working with childrens check. I am happy to ensure that your parenting style will be adhered to as to give the kids a good routine in life. I am an organised, trustworthy and bubbly person and kids usually seem to adore me. I have been able to deal with babies (2 and under) during the day and overnights and keep a cool collected and calm presence if they are unsettled. I have also dealt with my nephews when they have a fever and am happy to look after your kids when sick if needed. I am comfortable and confident completing all tasks needed and hope to one day be an amazing mother myself (in a good couple of years). For the time being i just want to support mums and dads in raising little humans to love this world and feel loved.

My name is Hayley, and I’m 19 years old. I am in my final year of studying an advanced psychology degree at the university of Newcastle. I have lots of experience babysitting children between the ages of 2-8 years old. However, I will only be accepting jobs where kids are above the age of 4 years. I love working with children and I find that I am naturally able to entertain them.
