Home Sweet Home Childcare: Loving and Respectful Care for Your Little Ones
| I am Paula , a 27-year-old Chilean journalist who, for the past 4 years, has been formally dedicated to the respectful and nurturing education of children. I am proactive, attentive, energetic, and very responsible. Likewise, my professional studies have equipped me with communication tools for effective interaction with children. In recent years in Chile, I worked at an alternative methodology free school, "Lefebre Lever," called "Almeraki." My strong performance in the first year led me to become the director of one of its branches for the last four years. The services I can offer include delicate childcare, Spanish lessons, assistance with school tasks, designing games and recreational activities, and help with light household chores. Currently, I am in Australia with the goal of improving my English and gaining a wealth of experiences and tools to later return to Chile and share them with my students.
Paula is a friendly and kind person. She is lovely with our children, trustworthy and reliable."

Childcare worker with 7 years experience
| Hello! My name is JoJo and I'm a caregiver with 7+ years professional experience within the childcare industry! I'm incredibly experienced when it comes to working with youths! During high school I worked as a counselor at two summer camps for young children. Throughout college I expanded into babysitting, and ended up providing consistent care for two children beginning at ages 5 and 7, and going until the kids were 9 and 11. During this time I also worked in a local afterschool program teaching kids between kindergarten and 5th grade how to read, write, and do math. After graduating from college I worked for a year as a kindergarten instructor as part of an afterschool program for children with special needs. When working with kids I love to play boardgames, walk in nature, be active (I played soccer for over 10 years!), do arts and crafts, cook fun meals, read, and generally be silly! I'm ideally looking for a longer-term babysitting job with a family though I am also open to doing single gigs! I'm super flexible on time and can work around pretty much any schedule. I look forward to meeting you and your child!
What an absolute delight! My 7 year old was thrilled to spend quality time with Jojo. She found common interests and was very attentive. A great success. I highly recommend Jojo."

The fun and reliable child carer :)
| I’ve been babysitting casually for about a year, caring for children in both my family and local neighborhood. Through this, I’ve gained hands-on experience with kids of different ages and personalities, helping them feel safe, engaged, and supported. I offer a wide range of childcare services, including preparing meals and snacks, school lunch prep, feeding, playtime supervision, creative activities, reading, bedtime routines, and light housework. I’m happy to adapt to the needs of each family and enjoy creating a fun and nurturing environment. I’m known for being warm, reliable, and approachable, and I genuinely love spending time with kids—building trust and meaningful connections with them is something I find incredibly rewarding. Whether it’s helping with schoolwork, calming bedtime nerves, or just having a laugh during playtime, I always strive to make children feel cared for and at ease.
