Hi mummies and daddies, I am a friendly and experienced carer from Singapore, fluent in English (first language), Mandarin and basic French. I am passionate about combining positive psychology with early childhood education to give children the best start to their lives, integrating kindness, resilience, positivity and curiosity in my approach. I have a valid WWCC, full working rights and NSW drivers license, current First Aid + Cpr in childcare (renewed every year from my full time work). I've been living in Bondi with my French-Australian partner for 5 years. Cert III in early childhood education and care, have been working full time in several early childhood centres and babysitting around Bondi and Eastern suburbs since 2019. Completed my postgraduate diplomas in Applied Positive Psychology, Psychotherapy and Counselling, with a permanent family visa (no restrictions on work). WWCC + police background check cleared. I am happy to help out with cleaning, feeding, entertaining, homework, reading, song and dance, some housework during downtime and more :) I have almost 20 years of paid/volunteer experience in babysitting, private tutoring and storytelling, as well as afterschool playgroups/childcare, children's events and activities, adventure camp counsellor, children's ministry/ sunday school and more! I am currently working full-time in an early childhood centre and doing regular babysitting in Bondi and Eastern suburbs as well as tutoring academic subjects. I'm interested in casual or regular babysitting work preferably on weekends (or weekdays 6/7pm onwards). Minimum hourly rate of 30 for 1 child (around bondi area), 35 if located outside Bondi or for 2 children. I volunteered regularly on a weekly basis at Hop and Bob at Bondi Anglican Church from 2019-2021 (until I started full time work). It's a song and dance session for mums and bubs, open to the public. I'm great with song and dance. I also love reading, art and craft and doing all sorts of educational or sensory activity with children. If you've got animals at home, I'm also great with animal tasks, with many years of experience of keeping more than 10 species of animals of my own. At present, I live with my French-Australian partner in North Bondi. I'm employed full time in an early childhood centre in the eastern suburbs. I love children but he doesn't want any, hence I channel my passion into work :) Calls/sms: 0451502228 Whatsapp: +6598521718

29 families and businesses in your area recommended Avery...

"This is the second time Avery has come to our rescue to watch our daughter (age 17 months) due to a last minute change of plans. We HIGHLY recommend her. She arrived 10 mins early to go over schedule/instructions and more importantly, as soon as she walked through our front door she paid attention to Rhain and made an effort to understand her favorite activities/comfort items to ensure rhain was comfortable when we left - which worked. She was able to put her down for a nap within 30 minutes of arriving! Thank you again, avery!"

From Hannah - Bondi Beach

"Avery was incredible with our 15 month old daughter. My husband and I needed a sitter last minute on a saturday night and we hit the jackpot with Avery. She arrived early, listened to all routine / bedtime instructions and had such a calm, gentle approach with our little one. I would absolutely work with her again and highly recommend her. "

She is so warm and genuine with them taking time to play games, help them with social interactions with other kids at the park, teach them new skills and make them feel very special.

Childcare Experience

I am passionate about combining positive psychology with early childhood education to give children the best start to their lives, integrating kindness, resilience, positivity and curiosity in my approach. I have been working with children in Australia since 2019. At present, I am employed full time in an early childhood centre in the Eastern suburbs. Available for regular/casual babysitting on weekends or weeknights (6pm onwards for weeknights). I love engaging with children and encouraging their curiosity, creativity, excitement, positivity, active minds and bodies. Besides children, I am also very passionate about sports and exercising, healthy living, nature and outdoors, animals and wildlife, art and handicraft and the beach, just to name a few. I am happy to help out with cleaning, feeding, entertaining, homework, reading, song and dance, some housework during downtime and more :) I started volunteering in children's events, as well as relatives' and neighbours' homes from the age of 10, with paid work starting from 18. My volunteering experiences include children's ministry, sunday school, storytelling, counselling, church camps and helping out with food preparation, feeding, changing, showering, playground supervision, schoolwork and more. My paid experience includes several of the above, as well as working as an early childhood educator (Bondi and Eastern suburbs), tutoring (ages 5 to 16, including assisting with schoolwork), baby/child-sitting (0 to 12+), school and adventure camp counsellor, children's event and activity host and more. You can definitely leave your child(ren) with me with absolute peace of mind when you are out at work, attending events, running errands, or simply need an extra pair of hands around!

I teach English, ESL, Math, Geography and Chinese at various academic levels.
