Hi, I’m Michaela,
I have over five years of experience as an early childhood teacher in the infant and toddlers room, and I’ve cared for children ranging from 7 months to 14 years old. My focus is always on providing respectful care—treating your child as a capable, worthy individual and tailoring my approach to their unique needs. I’ll follow your child’s regular routine to help them feel comfortable and secure, whether that’s nappy changes, bathing, preparing bottles, cooking meals, or reading books together.
I’m patient, organised, and love building genuine connections with children. I enjoy incorporating creative activities like art and baking into our time, helping your child explore, learn, and express themselves in a fun and engaging way.
You can count on me to provide reliable and thoughtful care. My goal is to make sure your child feels happy, confident, and valued while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and be a positive influence in your child’s life.

My son felt at ease right away and said he had a lot of fun making paper airplanes, colouring in and reading stories.
We are looking forward to having Michaela back in our home soon"From Lara - Waterview

Childcare Experience
I enjoy spending time with children and assisting them with learning, care, and creating fun activities.
I have also been a nanny for a couple of families, for children between 5-6.
