I am a friendly and energetic person with more than seven years experience working with children in long daycare and school settings. I love and enjoy incorporating Montessori inspired and play-based activities in order to meet the individualized emotional, social, intellectual and physical needs of the child/children in my care. I have a certificate III in early education and care and recently completed a graduate certificate in early childhood qualifying me as an early childhood teacher. I have a bachelors degree in secondary education I am also equipped to work with older children in the family in regards to tutoring or simply providing fun and thought provoking literacy and numeracy games.

Shannon was amazing with our boys! Our eldest said “she was the nicest person he has ever met”. Shannon was our first ever babysitter, and she made us feel so at ease and confident from start to finish. Thank you Shannon for everything
Shannon was absolutely lovely. Within minutes was reading our 3 yo son bedtime
stories and helped him get ready for bed. Was great with communication and no issues at all for whole evening babysit for an event. We have a 1 and 3 year old. Would definitely invite again to look after our kids!
Shannon was absolutely brilliant, we would highly recommend her and will definitely use her again. The kids adored her and she was kind, competent and caring. Thanks Shannon!
Shannon was fantastic with our 4 month old son. She was extremely professional, warm and friendly. We felt very confident and comfortable leaving our son in her care. Highly recommend.
Very happy
Shannon is amazing babysitter! She connected with our two children directly, aged 3 and 6. I got a quick goodbye hug and kiss from them as they were just too busy playing with Shannon. Before the date she asked about their interests and brought exciting crafts with her on the day.
As we were on holiday, it was even more special that she could come to our hotel and take care of them. She easily brought them to bed. Great communication before and during the session.
We have used Shannon before and we hope we come back to Brisbane soon. Shannon is always our first choice for babysitter.
Shannon was wonderful! She was extremely warm and attentive and very engaging. She brought games and activities and instantly connected with my son. I highly recommend Shannon!
Shannon provided great pre-booking communication and ensured she was across what our 3 year old would be interested in. We had rave reviews from our daughter and were impressed with her personality and attitude. Would def recommend!
Thank you so much, Shannon! We’d love to work with you again. Really appreciate your attentiveness.
Shannon was awesome. She was happy to play games and jump on the trampoline with the kids. Will definitely be using Shannon again!
Shannon is amazing! My two babies settle easily with her. She is calm, fun and nurturing and uses her common sense very well! She sends very helpful updates throughout the night to keep me at ease. I could not recommend Shannon enough!
Shannon was great with the kids, building rapport straight up.
Thank you Shannon. Our six year old was immediately comfortable with you. She had so much fun and we felt so safe and confident leaving her with you. She really enjoyed the craft activities and your willingness to explore the gardens and collect flowers with her. You really tuned into her interests and made such a special effort to ensure she had a great time. Our 6 year old says " your the best"
Thanks so much
Shannon was absolutely wonderful with our nearly 4 yr old and 14 month old. She bought toys and books that the kids loved as well as played all day with them in engaging activities. She is so kind and sent me photo collages of them throughout the day as it was my first time leaving them all day. This made me feel so relaxed and confident they were in great hands. My little boy said he’d like to hang out with her forever :) highly recommend Shannon and look forward to booking with her again!
Lovely girl and she did an excellent job with our little boy!
Shannon was a delight! Would highly recommend Shannon to my friends!
When I asked my 6 year old if he had a good time, he said 'she was actually really nice, I really liked her!'
Great with the kids. Everything went very smoothly. Definitely recommend to anyone!
I have two children asking when Mum and Dad are going out again next! Shannon was excellent and the kids were extremely happy. We will definitely be looking to book her again.
Shannon took excellent care of our 15 month old. She is super professional and caring, our son took to her very quickly. She organized activities and brought some toys to best suit his interests. Many thanks Shannon!
Shannon is a great person and we felt really comfortable leaving our kids with her for a few hours. The kids had great time and we came home to a quite house and two sleeping children which was perfect.
Shannon was lovely, and very professional. It was the first time we've left our child with someone who isn't family, but the experience filled me with confidence.
Shannon did a fantastic job taking care of our children! We'd be very happy to have her in our home again. She was a trooper with our baby and our 10 year old particularly enjoyed her company! Highly recommended!
We were lucky enough to book Shannon for a one-off session when on holiday in Brisbane. Her communication beforehand was very thorough, inquiring about our two young girls' interests and needs. She arrived with toys and activities she selected for them specifically and really connected with both of the girls, to the point they were not really bothered to say goodbye to us. The next day we got glowing reviews from our eldest (4 years of age.) We recommend Shannon whole-heartedly and would absolutely book her again when in Brisbane!
Absolutely awesome!! Shannon and her friend Tessa looked after 6 kids (aged 1-6 years) for us - they were both so relaxed and the kids had the most amazing time with them. I would not hesitate to recommend Shannon to anyone with children of any age; very impressed and appreciative - thanks so much ladies!
Shannon was really lovely. Would certainly want to have again.
Shannon was excellent. She connected well with our 15MO daughter and we felt very safe leaving her with such a professional and competent young woman
Shannon was fantastic. An admirable focus on educative activities and endless patience.
Shannon was great with the children, got them off to bed promptly and efficiently with a minimum of fuss. Would happily use again.

Shannon prefers a maximum number of 6 children per booking.
