Highly experienced school teacher and nanny looking for babysitting work
| My name is Phoebe and I am a highly experienced nanny and teacher. I have worked with children of all ages as well as children with disabilities for over ten years now. Prior to teaching, I was a full-time nanny to multiple families, caring for children from their infancy through to teenagers. I am a qualified teacher with a dual degree from the University of Queensland and I currently work full-time as a high school drama teacher at a wonderful school in Cairns. I am available most evenings and weekends for casual babysitting as well as school holiday care. I am located in Cairns North but willing to travel. I have my own car and license as well as a blue card and first aid training (infant and CPR included which is updated annually). I am a registered carer and am a registered teacher with the Queensland College of Teachers. I am very much an 'older sister' style nanny. I incorporate play, reading, dancing, singing, and cooking into my care. I appreciate when there are clear guidelines, routines, and goals that both you and I can work towards as a team to ensure happy, healthy, and clever kids. If you think I may be a good fit for your family, feel free to contact me for more of a chat.
Phoebe was fantastic with our kids, and they loved having time with her. Highly recommended and we would absolutely use her again if she moves back to Brisbane."

I am currently available for interviews until the 5th of May.
| I am currently studying in South Africa, where I am originally from, at The Modern College of Montessori to become a directress (teacher). I have a passion for teaching and working with children as they are our future and I believe I can learn as much (if not more) from them as they learn from me. I discovered my passion for teaching in 2020 (my Grade 10 year) whilst volunteering at a special needs school back in South Africa and went on to start babysitting for some family friends in 2021 until present. I completed highschool in 2022 and earned my matriculation (equal to SSCE) but ended up taking taking gap year as I was waiting for my Australian visa which has since been issued. I recently got my South African driver's license, however I do not have my own car but I am willing to walk (if in range) or take public transport. I also have a NQF level 3 certification as a first responder (first aid) which I completed last year (2023). I strongly believe in the Montessori teaching principles as children should be treated as equals and with respect, the same as any other person or living creature. I am a passionate, hard-working individual who is goal-oriented and responsible.
