Hello Families! Making the choice to leave your children with a sitter can already be a daunting task - that’s where I come in! I am a diploma-qualified Early childhood educator who is regularly engaging with children aged from 6 weeks to 12 years, for close to a decade! I have a full time management position in OSHC (before and after school care) after making the switch from early learning. I regularly participate in weekend and after work baby sitting (depending on availability). I enjoy fostering a unique connection between myself and each child to ensure they feel a sense of belonging during their time in my care. I can’t wait to hear from you all and please reach out if you have any questions!

"We are so grateful for Kristy who was terrific with our kids (6 and 9) who hadn't had a babysitter for over a year. She helped us out at short notice and was flexible and so easy to deal with. She was friendly and disarming from the get go, I felt confident leaving them. Kristy played games and got them off to bed with no dramas at all. The kids were so happy in the morning, my daughter said "she is the most amazing babysitter!" Definitely recommend. (But don't book her out because we will definitely want her back again 😁)"
From Angela - Preston
"Kristy arrived right on time and instantly connected with the kids. She was super friendly, very professional and capable. It was our first time using an external to family babysitter and we all felt instantly comfortable with her. The kids had a fun day playing and as parents, we had so much peace of mind knowing that the kids were well cared for…..and as a side benefit, the house was much tidier when she left then when she arrived! We would absolutely have Kristy babysit again and happily recommend her. "
From Lyndall - Coburg
"Kristy was professional, calm and confident. Hazel loved her and I felt very relaxed about her being in our home and caring for our 7mo daughter which was especially important given it was our first experience with a sitter. I would highly recommend. "
From Christie - Coburg
"Kristy was fantastic! She greeted the kids like she had known them for years and they took to her immediately. We will be using her again without hesitation. 5 shiny gold stars, thanks Kristy."

"Kristy was great. Took about 10 seconds for our 3 year old to settle in with her and start showing her room. Was able to handle bed time with ease. Would recommend."

Special Needs Experience

I have supported children with ADHD, ASD, GDD and speech development delays in my early learning career and have attended training to support their development.

Childcare Experience

I have provided exceptional care for children ages 6 weeks to 6 years for close to a decade in an long daycare service. I have recently made the change to working in before and after school care (OSHC) and am enjoying the change and challenge. I have also provided baby sitting services for multiple families on a regular basis, for children aged between 6 months- 12 years, creating intricate relationships with children outside of a childcare setting.
