Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Northern Middle Melbourne, VIC

Looking for casual babysitting for afternoon and evening. Specifically, Thursday for two children. One 2.5 and one 4.5 in age. Currently looking for Thursday the 7th of May for cover in the evening.

Hi there

My name is Sasha and I live in Thornbury with my partner and 2 year old son.

We're looking for someone to help us out one afternoon a week, ideally on a Tuesday or Thursday (though we have some flexibility). The hours would be 3:30–6:30pm.

To give you a sense of what the afternoon would look like:

- Arrive at our home at 3.30pm and tidy our son's room, strip his cot and put on fresh sheets, put a load of his clothes in the washing machine and prepare his dinner.
- Around 4:30/5:00pm you would drive to pick our son up from daycare (approx. 5 minute drive from our house).
- Once back at home, play games/read etc and give him dinner.

If the arrangement works well, we'd potentially look to extend to a second afternoon per week on a different day, same hours. We'd also need occasional casual evening babysitting from time to time.

If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, we'd love to hear from you!

Thanks
Sasha

We’re a warm and welcoming family looking for a reliable, caring, and energetic babysitter/nanny to help us with our three amazing children: twin 7-year-old girls (grade 2) and their 9-year-old brother (grade 4). If you’re organised and love spending time with kids, we’d love to hear from you!

What We’re Looking For:
Availability on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday mornings (7–9am) and afternoons (3–6:30pm).
Someone to assist with morning routines, including preparing lunchboxes, getting the kids dressed, basic house tidying, and walking them to school.

We’re looking for someone dependable, fun, and kind who will enjoy helping our kids start and end their school day on the right foot. Experience with kids in this age group is a plus!
If this sounds like an opportunity you’d love, please get in touch – we’re excited to meet you!

Hi! We are a family of 3 - I am Betty (30), my husband Anthony (34) and baby Aria (2). Aria is absolutely the heart of our family - she is so curious and cheeky! She loves dancing to music, reading books and is hands down an outdoors baby who wants to be outside, rain hail or shine.

We are looking for a babysitter to cover my working hours on Monday and Wednesday (10am-1pm (3hrs) starting on a weekly basis from 5 May 2026. Anthony and I will both be present and working from home, and Anthony’s workspace is in the living room (which is also sometimes a play space).

What we are looking for in a babysitter: Aria is by temperament cautious, sensitive and slow to warm up, so it is important to us that her babysitter is gentle, patient, empathetic and emotionally-attuned to her and her needs, and is willing to give her full attention and consistency to foster trust. She is also starting to experience big emotions, so we are looking for someone who is able to help her identify her emotions and comfort her through any feelings that may overwhelm her. We would like a babysitter who adopts screen-free and child-led play, and someone who genuinely enjoys playing and engaging with toddlers and is willing to follow Aria’s cues and interests (which might mean potentially repeating the same word over and over again, or playing the same game over and over again!). We are looking for someone to delight in Aria, encourage her and help her understand her experiences.

Some things we will not be expecting you to do include: putting Aria to sleep, and making food (other than getting pre-made snacks for Aria). We are currently toilet training her, so you would be expected to help her in this process.

Aria’s naps may be unpredictable, so we are looking for someone also willing to help with basic cleaning/housework if she falls asleep between 10am-1pm.

Please reach out if you think you would be a great fit! Looking forward to hearing from you!

NOTE: Apologies if you have already messaged me and I have not responded: I have reset my membership and unfortunately no longer have access to your message! Please feel free to reach out again!

Hi,
We have just ended a long term arrangement with our current baby sitter as she needed to focus more on her studies. We would like to consider you and wanted to see if you would be a good fit for our family 😊Here is some background and the requirements, please reply if you are interested.

2 kids. A 7 year old girl and an 11 year old boy.

We have a split family. The kids spend a week with mum and a week with dad, alternating. Both parents live in Rosanna.

Requirements when at Dad’s house:
• 3 days a week. Preferably Mon, Thu and Sun. 2 hours each day.
• Duties: Helping kids with homework so you have to be comfortable with teaching a 6 year old and an 11 year old (teaching the kids is really the main requirement). Tidying up the house, kids room, changing bed sheets and other light tasks.
• Optional: Cooking. I am looking for someone to cook meals for us, if you can do that it is a bonus and obviously you will be paid for the time but this is not mandatory as I can find a separate cook to a babysitter.

Requirements when at Mum’s house:
• 3 days a week. Preferably Mon, Thu and Sun. 1.5 hours each day.
• Duties: Helping kids with home work so you have to be comfortable with teaching a 6 year old and an 11 year old (teaching the kids is really the main requirement).

We are looking for a long term arrangement as it is quite a hassle to change babysitters every now and then. So, please only apply if you know you can stick around for at least an year.

I would appreciate if you could please fill out this questionnaire in your reply:
• WWCC?:
• Police Check?:
• Car/Driving License?:
• Can you do the number of hours requested?
• Are you okay with tidying up and other light tasks?
• Are you okay/interested in taking up the cooking job?

Thank you so much. If we progress we would like to invite you for a paid trial :-)

Regards,
Bilal
