Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Northern Beaches, NSW

Hi all! I’m Mel and we are a family in Davidson looking for a new regular nanny for our legend kids Albert (4) and Olive (6). Our nanny has a timetable clash now so on the hunt for someone caring and fun, with positive vibes, to look after Albert in the day and support with school pickups and dropoffs for Olive on Thursdays and/or Fridays. Car and license needed please. Our little man Albert is a soft, sweet, funny character who loves imaginative play. Would love to hear from you. We are hoping to have someone start in next couple of weeks. Thanks!

💛 About the Kids

Our 8-year-old daughter is an intelligent, creative “tween” who is wonderful company. She does have a bit of anxiety that pops up around school and extra curricular activities so we are looking for someone who is gentle and caring.

Our 5-year-old son is full of personality – he’s funny, charismatic, endlessly curious, and loves engaging with someone who brings fun and enthusiasm to his day.

We are a family of four with 3 year old and 1 year old girls looking for a safety focused, kind and reliable nanny to take care of the girls while mum works from home on Monday and Tuesday.

Both girls have been in care and the eldest is very comfortable with new people, the baby is a bit slower to warm up but has been doing well at daycare. I’d love someone that genuinely delights in children and has a strong sense of safety. The right person doesn’t need to have loads of experience but will be comfortable managing two small kids out of the house, and driving them in my car to activities.

The baby is allergic to some foods and whilst she has never had anaphylaxis I will want to show our nanny how to use the pen just in case.

Please message if interested

This is perhaps a different type of vacancy but we know that special someone is out there somewhere!

We are looking for a carer preferably with support work qualifications and experience to assist our young teenager 3-4 weekday afternoon/evenings and flexible weekend shifts. You will support our son with supervision, fun company, outings, administering PEG feeds (training provided) and basic medications, self care, toileting and other daily activities.

Our son loves music, morning walks, dogs and making YouTube videos. He’s super social and good fun so someone with similar personality traits would be great. He lives at home with a loving family in a beautiful part of the Northern Beaches of Sydney. He has a complex health condition which is managed with a bigger team so you will be well supported and fully trained.

Pay rate can be adjusted with skills and qualification levels.

We can offer additional hours if required and can be slightly flexible around the hours for this role if need be.

Happy to discuss more in person.

Looking for someone to nanny 2 days a week (Monday and Friday). Monday you will be looking after our 1 year old and Friday you will be looking after our 1 and 3 year old.

A car would be preferred as you could assist with drop off and pick up for daycare on the Monday.

Mum will be working from home both days.

We’re located in Seaforth.
