Gemma ~ Prahran

Hi I'm Gemma. I've recently moved to Melbourne on a permanent basis.

I'm currently employed as a nanny looking after two very lovely families - full day Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday evenings so I am looking for positions at any other time.

I've been previously employed as an English Teacher in Vietnam before coming to Melbourne. In my capacity as an English teacher I have a wealth of experience in looking after young children from the ages 2-12 and moreover I have an extensive knowledge of educational games and activities that I would bring to your child’s daily experience if required.

Coming from a large family with most of us living in the same town in Suffolk, England; and being the oldest of many cousins, I have been babysitting children as young at 8 months on a regular basis since I was a teenager.

I am extremely comfortable with young children and very aware of the importance of a stable, steady routine in establishing a positive environment for a child’s growth.

I have completed a St John’s Ambulance emergency first aid course.

I am hard-working, responsible, contentious, positive, outgoing and energetic and I believe I would make an excellent nanny for your family. I would be very happy to hear from you if you want to get in touch.

*Looking for full time work to start January 2013.
I have been an enthusiastic teacher for the last 7 years. I have taught senior students, coached primary aged kids, babysat a huge variety of ages for the last 13 years, have nannied in the past and have enjoyed becoming apart of each family along the way! I will very flexible with working hours as I am looking forward to a 'break' (ha ha) from teaching. I am a creative, loyal, trustworthy, organised, efficient & bubbly person who does not mind getting dirty with the kids! Most of all I love shaping children into creative and wise beings, am experienced & can cook! :)
I am interested and currently teach health, psychology

waitress/cook/kitchen-hand/management duties, and retail. A variety of skills.
I fit in positively wherever I go. While teaching, I have started an informal cleaning company and currently clean for families- so attention to detail is automatic.
I live in Prahran, and ideally a family close by (or I'm prepared to move to Fitzroy or equivelant- this would mean I am even more flexible with hours). I am available to start full time as of Jan 2013 and would love to meet your family before this. I am prepared and
have many ideas to shape your child's development. I'm
ready for outings, multiple duties, family holidays, etc...I own a house in the country, so if you are a family that can at the least match my current teacher wage- please give me a buzz!
Any questions, ask away!

Jade ~ Prahran

I am a 30year old, Australian and have nannied for nearly a decade now in five countries. I've covered the field. I have lived in and out, cared for children aged between new born and twelve years, one at a time, or in twos and threes and even nannied children of same-sex parents. Experience apart, I am honest, reliable, proud of what I do and every day approach my privileged job professionally. It goes without saying that I am fond of infants, toddlers and children. My priorities are the safety and wellbeing, trust, development and affection of the little ones I care for. Working with and looking after children, observing and assisting in their growth is serious business.
I'm able to look back proudly along a line of growing children with whom I've spent important times and find it hard to describe my feelings at their progress; at emerging awarenesses and skills - progress since I cared for them that was then 'potential' … once upon a time - developed since from the learning experiences I helped their parents to give them each and everyday.
