Working with children is a huge career passion of mine, and I enjoy being creative, active and fun with children of all ages. I aim to be very flexible for "my family" and provide the best possible care for the child/children. I am very patient, reliable, have a great sense of humour, and feel I have the welfare of children in mind at all times.
Since this is my career path, you are guaranteed to have me on board as someone who is very reliable, worldly, and consistent. I pride myself on providing the utmost care and flexibility to families. I used to be an avid swimmer and field hockey player, and I still love to bake and be creative. Exploring and being outdoors is something I absolutely love, especially time at the beach.
My husband and I are located in Glenelg, SA. But we are willing to move for the right family since he can work remotely.
My rate is $40-60 AUD per hour (depending on your families requirements) and I would love to secure a permanent role 2 days a week from the new year. In the meantime, I am available on certain days with my schedule confirmed a month in advance. I am happy to help in the evenings, including Saturdays.
Available Monday to Friday Open to occasional weekend work when needed for date nights or events, too.
I look forward to hearing from you very soon. Please feel free to send me a direct message and I can send over my contact details.
Note: Fees are negotiated according to various factors including weekday/weekend, daytime/evening, number of children, age range of children, one-off/regular booking, last minute
