- Playing with the boys

Hi,

We are looking for a nanny for Monday and Tuesday for 7 weeks (our lovely nanny has to do her practical experience for her teaching degree). Following the 7 week period, we will likely need additional Ad Hoc or regular help, as I am currently 26 weeks pregnant with our third and going on maternity leave in September.

We have two children, a girl who is 18 months old (Florence) and a boy who is 4.5 years old (Bobby). Bobby is very active and enjoys going to the park and riding his bike. Bobby goes to preschool Monday and Tuesday. So we would need you to walk to pick him up (900m) and walk him home (with Florence in the pram) at 3:30. Start time would be 7:30 and we are home by 5:30/6. We are pretty relaxed and just want the kids to be happy and safe.

We live in Gladesville NSW.

Thanks

Hi there,
We're a small family of 4 looking for help with our 9 month old boy + 3 year old girl for Wednesdays (approximately 8 am til 5/6 pm) and the occasional evening babysitting where possible. Our kids are sweet, easygoing, love the outdoors and are both in good routines with sleep/food/new people.

Centennial Park family seeking regular, long-term nanny/babysitting help. Our second baby, a boy, arrives in September. With Dad working long hours, Mum will need an extra pair of hands, likely more frequently in the first couple of months after the birth.

Occasional extra hours on day care days and some weekend work also welcome. A Working With Children Check is required. Living nearby is a plus.

Looking for a warm & kind nanny for our baby girl one day per week to start, we would like someone who will be able to be with us long term. As our little girl grows we will require some more assistance. Our baby girl will be one at the end of September - she is cheeky & funny & very sweet.

The role would involve looking after our baby girl whilst I am at work - timing can be flexible however start time would need to be from 8-9am and then be until 4-5pm.

We have two small poodles who will be at home too - they will be cared for by my father so they would just be around - both very friendly but you just have to supervise our baby girl with the dogs.
