I'm Vani, from Sigatoka. I've been looking after children for about twelve years — started at my cousin's resort kids' club when I was eighteen, and I've been doing this ever since.
Honestly, I love the questions kids ask. Especially the ones from somewhere cold — they want to know everything about the ocean, the lizards, why coconuts fall, what we eat. I learn things teaching them.
I'm easygoing but I keep to the parents' routine. If the parents say nap at one, we nap at one. If they say no sweets, we don't have sweets. The kids decide the games. I just keep them safe and happy.
Last year I looked after a Sydney family for ten days at the Outrigger — three girls, six, nine, and eleven. We made shell jewellery, learned a Fijian lullaby together, did pool time every afternoon. The youngest still sends me drawings sometimes.
I'm a real person, not an agency. If you message me, you're talking to me. Tell me about your kids — what they're like, what they're scared of, what they love — before you arrive. I'll be ready.
