Enjoy Your Time Away, Guilt-Free
Your children deserve exceptional care.
You deserve peace of mind.
Hello, I'm so glad you're here.
Finding the right person to care for your children can feel overwhelming. You need more than just a babysitter; you need someone you can trust completely. Someone who will not only keep your children safe but also nurture them, engage them, and make them feel happy and secure while you're away.
For over 30 years, I have been that person for families just like yours. My purpose is to provide professional, calm, and loving care that feels like an extension of your own. Whether you have a newborn or a pre-teen, I have the experience to manage every detail with confidence, allowing you to finally take that well-deserved break without a single worry.
Why Parents Trust Me
With Their Children
With three decades of dedicated childcare experience, I bring a level of expertise and intuition that only comes with time. Parents I've worked with often refer to me as their "Mary Poppins," a compliment I hold dear because it reflects the calm, capable, and positive atmosphere I create.

Here’s what you can expect when I care for your family:
Imagine returning home, not to a frazzled babysitter and teary children, but to a peaceful (and tidy!)
house and happy kids who can't wait to tell you about their fun. That’s the experience I deliver.

What Families Are Saying
Frequently asked questions
How can I be sure my child will be safe with you?
Your child's safety is my absolute priority. I am Blue Card approved (the required child safety check in QLD/other states) and have trained in child-specific first aid with St John’s Ambulance. With 30 years of experience, I am prepared to handle emergencies (I’ve confidently handled broken bones, sprains, choking, cuts requiring stitches and the most emergency situation of all…the dreaded playdate-toy-sharing-negotiations!) with a calm and professional approach.
My child has separation anxiety. How do you handle that?
It's completely normal for children to feel anxious. I use gentle, proven techniques to build rapport and trust quickly. We'll quickly engage in their favourite activities, singing, cuddles or reading, create a comforting environment, and I'll ensure they feel secure and happy long after you've left.
What if you don't connect with my child?
Building a positive connection is central to what I do. I take the time to understand each child's unique personality, interests, and needs. My extensive experience, including with neurodivergent children, has equipped me to connect with kids from all walks of life. We can also arrange a brief meet-and-greet beforehand (for long care only).
I feel so guilty leaving my children. Is that normal?
Parental guilt is very real, but taking time for yourself is not selfish—it’s necessary for being a present, patient parent. My goal is to remove that guilt by providing care so reliable and nurturing that you can truly relax, knowing your children are having a wonderful time.
Are you able to follow our specific routines for food and sleep?
Absolutely. Consistency is key for children. I will follow your family’s established routines for meals, naps, and bedtime precisely to ensure your child feels secure and everything runs smoothly.
