Coastal babysitter

Melanie

Hi, I’m Melanie and I’m a mature nanny & babysitter with extensive newborn experience. 

I have worked as a career nanny for many well-respected families in the community. I was born and raised in Queensland and love our culture of outdoor life in nature. I love taking children to the park, pool or beach. I went to the library playground, read, and did many other fun activities.

For me, babysitting is like being an aunt figure to the kids. I want the children to feel nurtured, safe & heard. I set the needed boundaries and have high professionalism and respect for the child and family. I would describe myself as a cheerful, happy, affectionate & patient babysitter. I am very diligent in carrying out my duties.

Before nannying, I lived in Asia for 10 years as a teacher, study consultant and nanny. I love the company and crazy imagination of kids and have built my career around helping them grow and succeed.

Looking forward to meeting your family.

Located in Brisbane.
