Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Forrest ACT

We are looking for someone fun and reliable to care for our two girls (age 6 and nearly 11) after school each day.

You would collect the girls from school near Manuka around 3.20pm, bring them home to Kingston for some snack and play, and supervise any homework. Occasionally the afternoon might include taking them to an after-school activity or appointment. We will be home at 6pm.

Some light household duties like bringing in washing from the line and commencing meal prep.

If you are looking for more hours on a regular basis we can add additional household tasks and babysitting hours. Or extra duties could be paid on an ad hoc basis.

Although we would ideally like someone five days a week we have some flexibility on that.

Must have own car.

Hello,
We are a looking for a fun and engaging person to pick our 6 year old son up from school on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons. The role would involve picking him up from school at 3pm and entertaining him until we are home at 5:30pm. We are located in Kingston and his school is a 5 minute drive away. Occasionally the afternoon may involve taking him to an after school activity.
He loves to kick a ball at the oval across the road, explore the nearby park, jump on his trampoline or do some baking. He brings a lot of joy and loves having someone to engage with.

We are looking for someone with their own car (we will provide a booster seat) and their WWVPC.

There is an option for occasional additional hours on the weekend/evening to babysit our 18mo daughter as well.

We are looking forward to hearing from you.

We’re a small Canberra family looking for a babysitter on Monday mornings for our 2.5 year old toddler for the next few months. He is a very sweet boy who gives lovely cuddles and likes playgrounds, his big sister, and anything to do with diggers. Applicants would ideally have WWCC, first aid cert and/or some ECEC training or experience. Additional weekend day/evening work also potentially available (if this is of interest).

Hi! We have two fun-loving boys aged 11 and 13 and are hoping to find someone to care for them after school, usually from 4pm to 6pm. The job would involve helping them complete homework and helping them get to / from any after-school activities.

Looking for a babysitter/nanny for afternoons and occasional weekends! Must be able to handle light housekeeping duties for an 18-month-old boy named Riva.

Hi there all,

My partner and I are looking for a part-time babysitter for our children. Julia is 6 and Theo is 4. The role would entail picking them up from school (we live walking distance from the school) at 3pm, walking them home and being with them at home until 530pm on Monday and Friday. We are also looking for someone who could occasionally babysit in the evening and weekends.

Our kids are active and creative and we have recently returned from a posting overseas where they have been used to having nannies and babysitters.

We are looking for someone who enjoys kids and has some experience looking after them and is reliable and creative.

We are also looking for someone that is interested in a longer term arrangement (for at least a year) to give the kids stability.

If this sounds like a good match for you, please get in touch!

Thanks.

Rachel

We're after an enthusiastic and patient person to assist with our 3 delightful kids aged between 5 and 7, for weeknights between 3:30-7pm and possible weekend days/evenings.

Hourly rate is negotiable.
Would appreciate some meal/lunchbox prep.
No driving of the children is required at this stage.
Loving dogs is a plus (we have two).

Please reach out if you think this might be for you! Thanks for reading.

We’re a loving family with a curious, playful three-year-old girl, and a sweet six-month-old baby boy. 🙋‍♀️👶

We’re looking for a nurturing and reliable nanny to support us for three or four days a week as I run my business from home. The days are completely flexible, mainly caring for our bub, with occasional care for our daughter as well on the days she’s home.

This role will most likely continue until the start of next year, as we wait for a daycare spot to open up. Casual employment is available for the right person.

We’re really hoping to build a lasting relationship and stay connected for future ad-hoc support as our family grows and evolves as we dont have a lot of family support in Canberra.

This includes:
☀️ Caring for our baby (and sometimes both children) with warmth and presence
☀️ Age-appropriate play, walks, and outdoor time
☀️ Feeding lunch and snacks, and supporting nap routines
☀️ Keeping play areas tidy and creating a calm, safe environment.
☀️ Supporting me while I work and run my business

If you love spending time with little ones, bring a calm, kind energy, and are looking for something short-term with the possibility of future connection—we’d love to hear from you. ✨️
