How to become a nanny in Australia

Thinking of becoming a nanny? Well you’ve come to the right place for advice! 

If you’re new here, A) welcome! and B) we have been matching nannies with loving families since 2016, so let’s fill you in on what we need from our applicants:

QUALIFICATIONS 

  • Valid WWCC (Blue Card)

  • Valid First Aid and CPR Certificate

CHECKS

  • Police Check (12 months validity)

  • Traffic History Report (Driving History)

  • Current Driver's License

  • References from two recent families that you have provided care to

NICE TO HAVE

  • Proven Child Care Experience 

  • Qualification in Children Services OR Currently Studying for a Qualification in Early Childhood 

Just like anything in life, good things come to those who work! 

But it isn’t just about having the right papers and qualifications. Another incredibly important thing to have is a love of helping people and taking care of children. The most important trait with us at Mini is to have a motivated attitude and a kind heart!

When you become a nanny, you are there to bring fun and peace of mind to a very deserving family… and in little to no time at all, you even feel like you ARE a part of the family. 

It really is a remarkably special role to take on and one that is worth the journey to get there! 

So when you do have all the qualifications you need (or if you already do!), let’s have a chat. We’ll match you with your perfect family across Brisbane, The Sunshine Coast or the Gold Coast. 

We hope this is the start of a new beautiful chapter in your life!
