Registered nurse, calm in a house full of noise
About Chidinma
I am a registered nurse at Concord and a mother of one. I babysit on my days off because I enjoy it, not because I need the hours. A high temperature, a rash that appeared at 5pm, a toddler who will not stop coughing, none of that will panic me. I am also perfectly happy with the ordinary evening: dinner, bath, story, lights out. Thank you for reading.

OOSH coordinator, Arabic and English
Nine years in out of school hours care, the last three coordinating a service with sixty kids on the roll. School age is my home ground: pickups, afternoon tea, homework, sorting out who is not talking to who this week. I speak Arabic at home and will use it with your kids if that is useful to you. WWCC, first aid, asthma and anaphylaxis all current through work.

Family day care educator, 20 years in Ashfield
Since 2006 I have run a registered family day care service from my own home in Ashfield. Four children a day, from six months to five years, the same routine every day, and it works because it is the same every day. Before that I was in a long day care centre in Burwood, in the nursery and then the toddler room. Babysitting in your home is something I take on Friday and Saturday evenings, once my

Spanish speaking, music and a lot of dancing
Hola, I am Marisol, from Medellin, four years now in Ashfield. I worked in a nursery in Colombia and I studied music, so with me there is always singing. We go to the park, we paint, we make arepas together. My English is good but not perfect, please be patient with me. I would love to speak Spanish with your children if you are teaching them at home.
