Hi, I’m looking for a helping hand to care for my 6-month-old daughter and my 3.5-year-old son after school.

The required time is 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm, with the possibility of extending to 6:00 pm on some days.

We would prefer someone reliable and stable, ideally with experience caring for young children.

We’re a family based in Redfern looking for a warm, engaged nanny/babysitter to help care for our son. He’s currently 6 months old and will be around 12 months old when the regular role begins in August.

I’m currently on parental leave, so for now we’re looking for ad-hoc babysitting, with the plan to move to a regular role of 3–5 days per week from 10am until 3/4pm, starting mid-August when I return to work. Ideally we’re hoping to find someone who would like to be with our family long term.

About the role:
• Caring for for our son
• Being present and engaged -singing, reading, playing and supporting his development
• Taking him out to activities such as swimming lessons, baby sensory classes, and walks
• Preparing simple baby meals and light baby-related tidying
• Light household help such as folding laundry, unpacking the dishwasher, and general tidying

We do have a cleaner, so we’re just looking for someone happy to help with small day-to-day tasks rather than deep cleaning.

I’ll also be working from home some days, so I’ll occasionally be around the house.

About our home:
• Located in Redfern
• We have two friendly cats, so you’ll need to be comfortable with pets

About us:
I’m an IP lawyer and my husband runs a music company. We love travel and would ideally find someone who might be open to travelling with us from time to time. We’re a pretty relaxed household and enjoy things like games, trivia and music, and I also love Pilates & art.

I used to be a nanny myself for a number of years, so I really get what the job’s like. I know how much energy and care it takes, and how important it is to feel trusted and appreciated. We’re just looking for someone who’ll feel comfortable and part of the family.

About you:
• Warm, reliable and attentive
• Enjoys engaging with babies and supporting their development
• Comfortable taking a baby out to local activities
• Happy to help with light household tasks
• Interested in a longer-term role

If this sounds like a good fit, we’d love to hear from you. Please send a message with a little about yourself and your experience. 😊

Hello!

We have two children: a 4 year old girl in preschool and an 8 year old boy in Year 3 at Maroubra Junction Public School. Our daughter attends SOS preschool on Mondays and Tuesdays (which closes at 4:30pm) and another preschool on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays (which remains open until 6pm).

We are currently looking for help for around 2.5 hours on Mondays and Tuesdays after school.

For Mondays, we are looking for someone that is able to pick up both kids and take my son to judo. This would entail picking up my son at MJPS at 3pm, then picking up my daughter from SOS Preschool, then taking them both to the PCYC where my son's judo class runs from 4:30-5:30pm. My husband and/or I would then arrive at the PCYC at 5:30pm to pick them both up.

For Tuesdays, we are looking for someone that is able to pick up both kids and take my son to handwriting OT in Bondi Junction. This would entail picking up my son at MJPS at 3pm, picking up my daughter from SOS Preschool, taking my son to OT in Bondi Junction (session runs 4:15-5pm), waiting with my daughter, then bringing them both home to Maroubra after OT finishes.

Once we get Mondays and Tuesdays up and running, we are potentially interested in adding another afternoon so that my son can attend soccer or basketball practice. This would entail picking him up at MJPS and dropping him off at practice nearby. It would not be necessary to stay at the practice or pick up my daughter, so this would be a short day.

Please get in touch if you would be interested in helping on Mondays and/or Tuesdays or if you have any other questions.

Thank you!
