I am a British nanny and babysitter who moved to the island in 2023 with my husband and three children, aged 15, 11 and 5. I have been working in childcare since 2013 and started my own business, Jane's Sitting Service in 2015 and again in 2023 when we emigrated to the island. I have lots of experience with children of all ages, including working with many neurodivergent families, from autism and adhd to global development delay and sensory processing disorder. My own children are also neurodivergent, so the experience continues within my home too. As a caregiver, I absolutely love what I do... the best thing about working with children is that every day is different and you get to see the world through their eyes, which is pretty unique, sometimes a little crazy but always lots of fun. As a nanny, I am very outgoing, have lots of energy and I love to be out and about exploring. I am kind, caring, trustworthy and patient. I try to adjust to each families individual needs and understand that all children are unique and as a care giver, you need to be adaptable. I also focus on providing a safe and nurturing environment with my business moto of 'play, learn and grow together'. As a mum of three, I understand how busy and overwhelming life can feel, juggling childcare, a job, a house and everything else that goes with the day to day tasks of being a parent, and I would love to be that extra pair of hands to support that routine and make some of those day to tasks more manageable. If your family is in need of a nanny, babysitter or mothers help, and you feel i may be a good fit for you, please do reach out or add yourself to my page and we can chat further. I have availability Monday to Friday and try to be as flexible as possible, with my ideal hours being 9-2 (although i am happy to offer longer hours if I am able to collect my daughter from school and bring her to work with me, but I appreciate this isn't for everyone). I am looking for a minimum of 10 hours per week, but have availability for up to 25+ hours as a nanny/nanny share role or mothers help. I am also ideally looking for work in the Langford, Colwood, Royal bay area but have my own vehicle so am happy to commute for the right family. I am first aid and CPR trained (renewal 31st March 2027) and am willing to get a criminal record check should this be required. I have a level 3 qualification from the the uk in working with children and young people, which is similar to an ECE here and past experience of working in a daycare setting, before starting my own business. I also volunteer as a soccer coach at Gorge, working with the under 6s and can provide lots of references. Worked as a nanny and babysitter for the last 10 plus years

I am a family-oriented, patient and caring person who enjoys helping others feel comfortable and supported. I am a mother myself, so I understand how important it is for parents to know that the person caring for their child is attentive, dependable and respectful of the family’s routines and individual needs. I am naturally calm and observant. I listen carefully, ask questions when I need clarification, and like to take the time to understand how a family prefers things to be done. I am meticulous and pay close attention to details, which I believe is especially important when supporting children who may have unique routines, communication styles, medical needs or developmental needs. I speak Mandarin, Cantonese and English, and I enjoy communicating with people from different backgrounds. I also love cooking and preparing meals for my family and others. I enjoy learning, reading about health and wellness, spending time with family, and finding practical ways to make everyday life easier and more comfortable. I have a warm personality and a good sense of humour, but I am also responsible and thoughtful. I understand that every child and every family is different, and I would want to learn what works best for your child rather than assuming that one approach works for everyone. I have a genuine interest in supporting families whose children may need extra patience, consistency, understanding or assistance in their daily lives. Hello, my name is Stella. I am a caring, patient, and responsible caregiver with experience working with children as an English teacher, as well as eight months of nursing and caregiving skills training. My training included personal hygiene, nutrition and meal preparation, home safety, emergency response, communication skills, and hands-on caregiving practice. I am comfortable following detailed routines and instructions and understand the importance of consistency, patience, and safety when supporting a child who may need additional assistance. I also enjoy cooking and can prepare a wide variety of nutritious meals. I am comfortable helping with household organization, laundry, cleaning, meal preparation, companionship, and daily routines. I speak Mandarin and Cantonese and also communicate in English VERY well. I am a non-smoker and do not drink alcohol. I am looking for a long-term position with a family where I can become familiar with the child’s individual needs and routines and provide dependable, consistent support.

I’m originally from the Czech Republic and I’m currently in Canada on a Work and Travel visa, travelling and experiencing Canada together with my boyfriend. I recently completed my Master’s degree in Environmental Protection. I come from a close and supportive family, and family is very important to me. I’m a friendly, caring, open-minded, and positive person who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. In my free time, I love being outdoors, exploring new places, hiking, playing different sports, and trying new activities. I also really enjoy cooking, especially healthy and balanced meals. I would describe myself as responsible, patient, reliable, organized, and easy-going. I’m also energetic and playful, and I enjoy being creative and coming up with fun activities. I’m adaptable and respectful of different family routines and values, and I would love to become someone a family can trust and rely on. For the past two years, I have been working with children as an educational program lecturer in primary schools and kindergartens. I lead interactive workshops and teach children about the importance of water and environmental protection. I also help develop educational activities and models focused on water and the environment. During school holidays, I have spent two weeks at children's camps as an instructor, where I was responsible for a group of eight children 24 hours a day. I prepared daily programs, organized activities, and made sure the children were safe, happy, and having a great time. I have also occasionally babysat children during my studies. I really enjoy spending time with children and coming up with creative and fun activities for them. I love cooking, especially healthy and nutritious meals. In my free time, I love being outdoors and doing a variety of sports and activities.

I like to be called Bia (like a nickname). My family is my life. But I also love to dedicate myself to various activities. I love running, hiking, and dancing. I also love listening to music, puzzles, painting, and arts in general. And when I'm at the playground with the kids, I usually play with them, do monkey bars, slides, and have fun together. My name is Bianca, and I'm a mom of two adorable children who are now in school (Grade 1 and Grade 4). I've learned a lot about caregiving as a mother and aunt. I quit my job to care for my children full-time. We read a lot together and do manu activities that help with motor coordination, including daily activities (like cooking small meals, appropriate for each child's age). Since arriving in Canada, I've worked as a caregiver, providing respectful and compassionate care. I'm CPR+First Aid certified. I also have a Class 5 driver's license and my own vehicle.
