Maria
Hi, I’m Maria. From Spain, I move to the beautiful land of Australia four years ago and it quickly became home. Four years ago, I made the move to beautiful Australia—and it quickly became home. Since then, I’ve been working in an early childhood center and as a support worker, combining my passion for education with a deep commitment to helping children of all abilities thrive. Working with children fills me with joy. Their energy, curiosity, and sense of wonder are absolutely contagious, and I love creating playful, enriching environments where they feel safe, supported, and excited to learn. Whether we’re playing, laughing, or working through a new challenge together, I find such meaning in every interaction. One of the most rewarding parts of my work is supporting children with diverse needs. I’m especially passionate about modeling positive behavior and helping each child feel confident and empowered. Watching them grow, celebrate their wins, and overcome challenges is a privilege I hold close to my heart. I look forward to meeting your family

Angie
Hi, I’m Angie.I’m 34 years old and originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Where I grew up in a big, lively family. I have 7 nieces and nephews ranging from toddlers to teens, and they’ve been a huge part of my life and inspiration! I’ve been caring for children ever since I can remember, from babysitting my little cousins and nephews to working as a nanny throughout my university years. Being around babies and kids has always come naturally to me. I genuinely love spending time with them, whether it’s helping with daily routines or jumping into imaginative play and creative activities. As a designer, I especially enjoy arts and crafts and coming up with fun, hands-on games to spark curiosity and creativity. I would describe myself as fun, compassionate, and above all, patient. I approach every family and every child with kindness and empathy, and I believe building a strong, trusting relationship is at the heart of great childcare. My goal is always to make children feel seen, heard, and safe, while also making sure we have lots of fun along the way! I look forward to meeting your family.
Grace
Hi. I’m Grace. I am passionate about working with kids. I’ve been babysitting on and off since I was 15 years old. I am also a qualified classical ballet teacher with 10 years experience teaching children from 3 years of age through to 18! When I am looking after children my focus is fun for the kids and peace of mind for the parents. I like to play games, read stories, make up dances, colour in and sing songs. I have experience with newborns all the way through to teens. I lived with my sister for the first 6 months of her daughter’s life to help care for her and now I babysit my niece once a week. My outside interests are dancing, yoga, cooking, live music, playing with my dog, swimming in the ocean, bike riding and reading. I look forward to meeting your family x
Irene
Hi, I’m Irene. I hold a university degree in Early Childhood Education. My passion for working with children has shaped every step of my career. I’ve spent two wonderful years teaching in public preschools, leading classrooms of curious five-year-olds through play-based learning, creativity, and discovery. One of the most meaningful parts of my journey has been working with a Spanish association supporting families of children with disabilities. From infants to teens aged 0 to 18, I provided both care and educational support to children with physical and intellectual disabilities, an experience that taught me so much about empathy, adaptability, and the power of individualized care. With over five years of experience as a nanny and babysitter in Spain, and now continuing here in Australia since early 2024, I’ve cared for children of all ages. I also teach Spanish to kids and adults, blending fun activities with language learning to create a truly engaging experience. Since childhood, I knew I wanted to be a teacher. Watching children grow into themselves, learning, laughing, and building confidence, fills me with joy. I believe childhood should be full of imagination, wonder, and gentle guidance. I adore crafts of all kinds and love incorporating creativity into playtime. I also enjoy physical games, reading stories, and imaginative role-play. A fun fact about me: I used to work in a theater and even studied children’s theater at university, so don’t be surprised if your little ones are acting out stories or directing their own plays with me! I look forward to meeting your family.
