Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Inner Melbourne, VIC

We are looking for a babysitter to care for our 4 yr old daughter and 6 yr old daughter from 7.00am - 9am Monday/Wednesday/Thursday and once a month in the evening if possible. Our two girls are delightful kiddos, who are fairly easy going, get on well together, but need some hussling to get to school/kinder on time. Role would include preparing for school, then walking/riding to kinder and school for drop offs. Would suit someone local.

I'm looking for a nanny/ies near SOUTH YARRA to take twin infants to childcare 4 days weekly (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday): You will need to change, feed, and take them to childcare 5 minutes away, which takes less than 1 hour, between 7-9am in the morning, and on also to collect them from childcare in the evening for 2 hours (6-8pm), and wash/change/feed them before bedtime. In addition, 6 hours during the day on Saturday or Sunday (e.g., 12-6pm).
You should have experience caring for infants; be friendly, warm, and nurturing; understand infants' needs; have good command of English; and perform light house duties and cooking basic food for the kids.
Given nannies conflicting schedules, the job is likely to be divided between 2 nannies, each doing 2 days (morning and evening) and one day on the weekend.
Please contact me to discuss.
Thanks,
Ilan
