About Bianca
Hi!! I'm Bianca, I'm 19 and I'm in second year of media at Sydney Uni.
So basically I've been the designated cousin minder since I was about 14. There's five of them and the youngest is 3, so between birthdays and Sunday lunch at my yiayia's I have done alot of hours that nobody paid me for haha. Then in year 12 I started babysitting properly for two families in Earlwood, one had a 4 year old and a baby and the other had two boys in primary, and I did that pretty much every second Saturday night for a year and a half.
Things I'm good at: craft (I bring my own stuff), baking, and getting kids outside for a proper run around before dinner so that bedtime isn't a two hour negotiation. Things I'm honestly not the best at yet: babies under one. I've held plenty of them but I'd rather say that now than pretend.
I'm patient and I genuinely don't mind mess. I'd rather your kid make a disaster and have fun than sit there being polite. I clean it up before I go anyway.
Marrickville, Dulwich Hill and Earlwood are easy for me on the 423 or just walking. Anywhere further and I'd need the bus to still be running, I don't drive yet (learning, very slowly). Thurs and Fri I'm at the bakery at 6am so I'm definately asleep by 9 those nights.
Message me!! I'm on my phone constantly.
Speaks English and Greek.

Cert III educator, studying my Diploma
I am a qualified early childhood educator with seven years experience in long day care, currently completing my Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care. I believe every child deserves a safe and nurturing environment where they can play, learn and be themselves. I am patient, reliable, and I follow the routine you already have rather than bringing my own. First aid, asthma and anaphylaxis al

After school care educator, Vietnamese and English
I work at an after school care service in the inner west and have done for nine years. School pickups are second nature to me, I do about thirty a week. Weekday afternoons I am at work, so babysitting for me is evenings and weekends. I can do a Friday night through to late. Vietnamese at home. My own two are 8 and 11, so very little surprises me any more. WWCC and first aid current. No car, but I

OOSH educator and nursing student, WWCC and first aid current
I work at an OOSH in Dulwich Hill (before and after school care) and I'm doing nursing at UTS, so my WWCC and first aid are both current through work. Weekdays I'm with about 30 kids at once, which honestly makes one or two feel like a holiday. I'm good at the boring bits: reading the same book four times, cutting the sandwich the right way, getting shoes on before we're late. Homework help up to
