Leanne was perfect for what we needed. We came to Port Macquarie not knowing anyone and we were very lucky to find Leanne. She is super professional and took care to make us feel at ease by presenting in a very organized way all her information, work already done and recommendations from other people. With L she was extraordinary. L is a very shy child and doesn't open up easily to anyone. Leanne respected his time until she managed to earn his trust and spent the entire morning playing, reading and talking with L. We were very satisfied with her work and we would certainly hire her again as many times as needed. Thanks Leanne."

Enthusiastic Child Carer with five years experience dedicated to the development of children.
| I have had five years experience working with children including After School care Work, Babysitting and outreach work with teenagers. I therefore enjoy working with children of a variety of ages and feel passionate about contributing to their unique learning experience. I previously worked in an After School Club where I worked as a room leader and was responsible for taking care of the children's welfare and creating stimulating activities for the children to engage in. I feel I am a highly emotional intelligent individual and I am therefore sensitive towards children individual needs and know how to adapt my communication effectively. I am also aware of the practicalities of working with children as I have worked with babies as young as one month, so I am prepared for how demanding this work can be. I feel I have been creative in my work with Children in that I incorporate my own interests and skills for example I enjoy singing and promoting outdoor activities with children and feel this has a positive impact on their social and practical skills. I would welcome the opportunities of a babysitting job and would look forward to the further opportunities it would offer.

A very loving and experienced nanny ready to create beautiful connections with your family.
| Hello families! I'm a qualified childcare educator with 9 years experience in childcare centers and as a nanny. I have recently moved to Lake Cathie and am looking for part time hours to balance with my new Reiki Healing (for adults, children and domestic animals) business.

I adore the children that I care for & am grateful that I stay close with them and their families, as they start school and into the future. I am now available your family, securing a stable & emotional bond, guiding your children under your family umbrella. I'm adaptable & model your standards & morals to create a smooth transition for your children. I love helping children to feel ready to take on the world around them confidently. I love music, art, cooking and outdoor adventures. I hold my full drivers license & have a reliable car. I look forward to hearing from you & getting to know your family. Please call with any queries incl. previous families references.

Passionate & driven young girl looking for childcare work
| I have a Statement of Attainment in Early Childhood Education and Care, a First Aid Certificate in an Education and Care setting. While I was doing the ECEC course I did work experience in St Agnes Childcare Centre from January 2017 to May 2017. I'm also the second oldest of 7 kids which meant growing up I was responsible for babysitting and caring for the young ones while my parents worked. One of my younger sisters has severe non-verbal Autism which means she is entirely dependant on us as her carer so I take on the role as her primary carer a lot as my parents work long hours. I am confident in caring for children with disabilities. I absolutely adore the joys and experience of caring for children, I find it an honour to be a part of a young person childhood and taking part in their growth and development. I'm on my red provisional license so I'm able to do pick up's and drop off's, I'm always happy to help out with housework and homework and my cooking skills are somewhat limited I'm always happy to do my best! More of my passions include music, animals and books. I am also completely willing to get a Working With Children Check if a family requests one.
