Is happy to be hands-on both with the children and around the home

Household support includes:
Folding and putting away washing
Keeping shared spaces tidy
Helping the home run smoothly day-to-day
We see this role as more than just childcare—we’re looking for someone who will become a trusted and valued part of our family rhythm.

✨ Nanny / House Manager – North Willoughby (Part-Time, Long-Term)

We are a family based in North Willoughby looking for an experienced nanny / house manager to support the smooth day-to-day running of our home.

We have one daughter (22 months old) and a friendly, medium-sized non-shedding dog. Our daughter attends daycare part-time, and we are flexible with her schedule to suit the right candidate.

This is a household management–focused role, ideal for someone who enjoys running an organised, efficient home and takes pride in maintaining a consistently high standard.

We have weekly cleaners, so no deep cleaning is required. Instead, we are looking for someone who can take ownership of the “in-between” tasks that keep everything running seamlessly—no job is too small.

Responsibilities include:
• Laundry, tidying, and maintaining a well-organised home
• Daily upkeep of key living areas (kitchen, living room, hallways, and play areas), including wiping down benchtops, countertops, tables, and keeping surfaces consistently clean and reset
• Grocery shopping and keeping household supplies stocked
• Managing and restocking items before they run out (e.g. dish soap, pantry items, baby supplies)
• Light food prep (e.g. boiling pasta, defrosting protein, making rice, chopping vegetables)
• Preparing and organising toddler meals
• Keeping daycare bag, pram bag, and car kit consistently stocked and ready
• Taking out garbage and general household upkeep
• Organising drawers, cupboards, wardrobes, and storage
• Running errands (groceries, returns, post office, etc.)
• Receiving deliveries and keeping the household running smoothly
• Maintaining a clean and safe outdoor space, including promptly picking up after the dog in the backyard if needed to ensure it remains suitable for a child to play in

We have a dog walker, however the candidate must be comfortable being around dogs and taking responsibility for maintaining a clean environment where needed.

This list is not exhaustive. Once core tasks are complete, there will always be opportunities to further organise, reset, or improve areas of the home, and we may also provide direction for additional tasks on quieter days.

The goal of this role is to keep the household running efficiently and proactively, allowing mum—who is often home—to focus on spending quality time with her daughter rather than managing house admin.

When our daughter is home, we are looking for someone warm, engaging, and confident with toddlers. However, this is not a role that is purely childcare-focused.

We are looking for someone who is:
• Proactive and takes initiative
• Highly organised and detail-oriented
• Comfortable working independently and taking ownership
• Reliable and looking for a long-term role
• Professional during working hours, with minimal personal phone use

Position details:
• Part-time (days flexible for the right candidate)
• Long-term role
• Competitive hourly rate based on experience

If this sounds like a good fit, please DM me directly with your experience and availability—we’d love to hear from you.

We are looking for a babysitter who would like to do 2 to 4 hours regular daytime babysitting during the week (flexible on which day). We would also like to book a one off sit on Saturday 6th of June from midday to 10 pm. Please let me know if you’re interested with your rates and any relevant experience. Thanks, Emma

We are a warm family based in Willoughby seeking a kind, calm and experienced nanny to become an important and valued part of our family long term.

We have two young boys - a 3.5 year old who thrives with consistency, patience and gentle support, and a younger baby who turns one in July. We are looking for someone who genuinely enjoys building strong connections with children and creating a calm, secure and nurturing environment.

This role would suit someone who is emotionally intuitive, dependable, grounded and looking for a long-term position with a family who values and respects the role deeply.

* Full-day care in our home
* Primarily focused on childcare, emotional support and maintaining a calm daily rhythm
* Supporting naps, meals, outings, play and age-appropriate activities
* Occasional local outings including parks, library, walks and activities

This is not a heavy housekeeping role. We already have external cleaning support in place. We are looking for someone whose primary focus is the children and creating a steady, positive presence in their lives.

Light child-related tasks only, such as:
* preparing children’s meals/snacks
* tidying play spaces after use
* children’s laundry if time permits

ABOUT YOU
We are ideally looking for someone who:
* has experience caring for babies and toddlers/preschoolers
* is calm, patient and emotionally mature
* values consistency and routine
* is warm and engaging without being overstimulating
* is reliable and committed to building a long-term relationship with our family
* is comfortable supporting a child with additional emotional/sensory needs (experience highly regarded but not essential for the right person)
* has excellent references, WWCC and first aid certification

We would love to find someone who sees nannying as more than just supervision, and who takes pride in becoming a trusted and steady part of family life over time.

Competitive hourly rate offered for the right person based on experience.

I need help for 5 hours for 2 days a week during office hours looking after my 13 month old son. I am flexible on the days of the week, with the exception of Fridays as I already have grandparent help that day.

My husband works from home and I work from home some days a week so we will always be available for questions / support if needed!

My son is very sweet and good natured, overall a pretty easy kid. He is walking fairly confidently and mostly wants to spend his day doing that at the moment!

He will need nappy changes, help getting down for a nap, a simple meal (provided) eaten in his high chair.

We would love someone who would speak to him in French or Italian but thats not a deal breaker.

We also have 2 friendly but excitable frenchies though they mostly stay in Brendan’s office!

It would also be great if we found someone who is comfortable with doing light housework like cleaning the kitchen and doing some laundry while Xander is napping.
