I am Myrissa, a 24-year-old woman deeply rooted in the beautiful city of Victoria, British Columbia, where I was born and raised. I am incredibly passionate about childcare and have devoted six years of my life caring for children of varied ages. Notably, my experience spans toddlers aged 1-2, pre-schoolers aged 3-5, and older children aged 6-9. I believe in the magic of fun-filled activities and innovative art projects, and I never hesitate to get a tad messy! My experience extends to assembling daily routines to enrich children's lives. These routines typically include circle times, snack breaks, nap times, outdoor play, and nature walks. It is an absolute joy watching the little ones explore their boundaries, test their skills and grow as unique individuals. Empathy is the core of my method in childcare - understanding and catering to the emotional needs of each child is integral to their holistic development. Beyond this, being a non-smoker, I guarantee a healthy environment for your children. Moreover, my ability to swim, drive (with a personal vehicle accessible for work), and cater to specially-abled children ensures added safety and convenience. I understand the importance of managing household responsibilities along with childcare. Thus, I am more than willing to take up duties such as cooking, light housekeeping, running errands, grocery shopping, meal preparation for kids, laundry duties, pet care, and supervising other household staff. As far as my professional credentials go, I hold a high-school degree, First Aid Training, CPR Training, and an ECA License. While I am a fluent English speaker and a proud Canadian citizen, I am also amenable to obtaining a police check if required. I look forward to a full-time, live-out nanny position and can comfortably cater to four or more children. I am available throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings from Monday to Friday. My services start at a basic hourly rate of $26, but I am open to negotiation as per your family's unique requirements. If my dedication, experience, and love for what I do align with your expectations, please don't hesitate to reach out. I eagerly await an opportunity to meet you and your precious little ones! Let's discuss how I can be of help to your family. My experience started when I applied to coach gymnastics in early 2019, I coached children from an age range of 18 months to 15 years and quickly found my love of working with young children aged 18 months to 5 years. From that experience I transitioned into the career of childcare working as an educator at an in home daycare with an age range of 12 months to 5 years. Eventually I wanted to branch out and get my early childhood education certificate, I found a welcoming company that hired and helped me get the education I was wanting. During my time there I had the opportunity to work in every program they have including multiple baby and toddler programs and multiple preschools. I was able to take some courses including guiding and caring as well as health safety and nutrition, which lead me to receive a certificate as an ECEA. On top of my ECEA certification I am also certified in Emergency Child Care First Aid CPR/AED level B. I have loved my time with this company and have met many amazing children and families which have then lead me to lots of opportunities for babysitting and nannying. While working at this company I also provided care as a part-time nanny for two children in the mornings ages 5 and 3! Currently and for the past year I have had the honourable opportunity to provide childcare/pet care for two children ages 4 and 7, as well as an amazing 9 year old doodle full-time. My jobs included getting the kids ready, packed, and taking the kids to and from school and spring/summer camps. While the kids are in school/camp I have help around the house doing laundry, meal/lunches prep, dishes and dog walking etc.

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

My name is Bridget, and I have been working as a private nanny for over 10 years with children of all ages. I was born and raised in Victoria, and I am currently a student at UVic studying developmental psychology. Along with my many years of hands-on experience with children, my studies give me a deeper understanding of what is going on in their minds and allow me to foster a nurturing environment for each child. My schedule is fairly flexible, and I have full-day availability on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and most Monday or Friday afternoons. I began babysitting when I was 12 years old, as well as volunteering with summer camps at the Royal BC Museum. I spent my summers nannying part-time for various families, and when I was 17, I was hired to run the 3-6 year old camp at the Museum. Over the following summers, I nannied full-time for families with children of all ages, from 15 months old to 12 years old. For the last 2 years, I have been a part-time nanny for a family with a now 2.5-year-old. I have my Emergency First Aid and CPR certificate and am happy to go through a background or criminal record check. I am an avid reader, and I love to spend time outside. I am also a classically trained pianist - I love music classes! References are available upon request. I began babysitting when I was 12 and was soon recruited by the Royal BC Museum as a volunteer mentor at their summer camps. Over the next few years, I continued to volunteer along with taking on more regular babysitting jobs. In 2019, I was offered a paid position at the museum where I ran camps for 4-6 year olds over the summer as a government-sanctioned childcare employee. During the weeks I didn’t work at the museum that summer, I was a full-time nanny for two different families, one with three kids aged 6, 8, and 12 and the other with a two-year-old. The following summer, I was a full-time nanny for a family with a 15-month-old and a 2-year-old. That fall, I was a full-time nanny for a family with a 2-year-old. For the past two years, I have been a part-time nanny for a family with a now 2.5-year-old. I'm currently pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology at UVic.

How much does a live out nanny cost in Saanich, British Columbia?

According to the latest data, the average hourly rate for a live-out nanny in Saanich is around $21.5 per hour or $2550 per month. These rates can vary based on several factors, including the number of children, the number of work hours each day, and the specific responsibilities involved—such as meal preparation, school drop-offs, laundry, and even nighttime or newborn care. Moreover, if you require your nanny to take the children on outings, to lessons, or clubs, don't forget to factor in additional costs. Expenses for entry fees and transportation can add up quickly!
