Brief info
I am Kaitlyn, an energetic and caring babysitter from sunny Australia, travelling the world with my partner and exploring new cities along the way. With a background in Primary Teaching and a Bachelor of Education, I have worked with young people full-time for 6 years. Alongside my teaching, I hold certifications in Child Protection, Mental Health, Cultural Appreciation, and Trauma Awareness, so I bring a well-rounded, thoughtful approach to caring for children.
I have spent time working with little ones in various settings, from bustling city schools to the vibrant Australian Outback, so I bring a wide range of activities and creative ideas to keep kids engaged and happy. Whether it is dancing, cooking, painting, or going on little adventures, I love sharing in kids’ curiosity and excitement for the world around them.
You will often find me cracking jokes, sharing funny stories, and encouraging children to explore through play, creativity, and even a few "science experiments" in the kitchen (they are always a hit!). Families I have worked with describe me as caring, supportive, and fun-loving, and I strive to be a positive, enthusiastic role model kids can feel comfortable and safe around.
In my free time, I love staying active through sports, especially touch rugby, where I have had the chance to coach children and run a program for young players in the community. Playing sports with kids is always a highlight for me—whether it is rugby, soccer, or just a fun game of catch, I enjoy helping them build confidence, stay active, and learn teamwork skills in a supportive, playful environment. From celebrating little victories to simply having a blast together, sports are a great way for kids to grow and have fun!
As a Nanny, I enjoy setting up activities that build motor skills, creativity, and confidence. From block-building to arts and crafts, I am all about making our time together memorable and fun. I look forward to the chance to create a joyful, engaging environment for your family!
“I would not hesitate to recommend Kaitlyn to anyone. My children thoroughly enjoyed their time with Kaitlyn as she was always engaged and cared for them to a high standard. Kaitlyn’s nature is extremely fun, outgoing, reliable, and trustworthy. There were times when plans would change and Kaitlyn was always flexible and ready to help when needed. Nothing was too much to ask and she became an important part of our family. Kaitlyn was always on time and went above and beyond to help with tasks that were not expected. Kaitlyn has an outstanding knowledge of education that showed through her care with activities and games to keep my children busy and happy.”
“We met Kaitlyn last year when she was our son’s teacher. She was an outstanding teacher for R, he wasn’t a very driven student & was struggling in most subjects, however he greatly improved throughout the year & has a new love for school. R’s older sister was also at the school & Kaitlyn guided her through some tough times which we are very grateful for. When Kaitlyn finished working at the school we maintained contact & used her regularly to look after the kids, mostly at the kids request! We truly believe Kaitlyn would be a great asset to any family & you will have some very happy kids at the resort.”
