Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Otford NSW

I have two little boys (2 and 4 years old) and both my husband and I work full-time. We’re mainly looking for someone to help out a bit around the house and with the kids — things like helping take them to swimming lessons, keeping an eye on them after daycare, and just being an extra set of hands when needed.

It would be fairly flexible hours to start with and can build up to something regular. Let me know if this sounds like something you’d be interested in, and we can chat more 😊

Hello!

We’re a warm, active family looking for a kind, capable nanny / house manager / dog minder to support our weekday routine and become a trusted part of our family life. We have two lovely kids — a daughter (8) and a son (10.5) — who enjoy playing together, spending time with friends, and are generally easygoing and well-mannered.

We are open to live out or live in - we have a granny flat which is separate from the house and has an attached patio.

We’re looking for help Monday–Friday from 3–7pm, plus Wednesday and Thursday mornings from 7–9am, with the possibility of additional hours if of interest.

Both parents work, and this role is about helping keep afternoons and mornings running smoothly. Responsibilities include:

• School drop off and pick ups, caring for the kids and supporting after-school routines
• Helping with dinner, light tidying, dishes and washing (we have cleaners)
• Walking our medium-sized dog, who is friendly and energetic and enjoys a good walk
• Occasional errands (post office, dry cleaning, small grocery runs)

We’re looking for someone kind, reliable, and practical who enjoys being helpful and takes pride in showing up consistently. This isn’t a short-term or casual role for us, but an important, trusted position within our family. We’re hoping to find someone looking for a meaningful, longer-term role who would enjoy settling into a familiar routine with us.

Start date is flexible :)

We’d love to hear from you.
