Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in St Clair NSW

Hi there,

House Manager/Babysitter Role wanted.

We are a family of 4 living in Woollahra, near Bondi Junction and have easy access to public transport. We have two daughters, aged 3 and 5, and we need some help after school, 2 days a week (Tues + Wed), + the occasional 3rd day when my husband travels for work depending on his schedule.

Typical afternoon would be watching our 5 year old once she finishes school from 3:30-5 until we finish work and pick up our youngest from daycare, then we take over the kids to spend some time with them and would ask you to do some cleaning, dinner prep, laundry, occasional errands, and then on days that I am alone some assistance with bath & bedtime.

This is a part time role, however we are looking for someone who would be a great fit and stay with us the long term.

We are looking for an engaged and energised person to care for our two boys after school each week, from Monday to Wednesday. The boys are 9 and 12, are active, like playing sport in the park, need help with homework and encouragement doing their piano practice. School is a 15 minute walk from home, and they will need picking up some afternoons, and preparing a cooking dinner. We would like someone who think ahead and helps with the planning.

To summarise what we are looking for:

• Care Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons, 3pm – 7pm (regular 3 days a week) starting 29 April.
• Looking after 2 boys, aged 9 and 12.
• Plan, cook (and shop if needed) – dinner meals for the two boys. Cook and clean up after meal.
• Possibly to pick boys up from school and walk home on some afternoons (school is about 15min walk from home)
• Sometimes the boys have afterschool activities, so being flexible about what happens in an afternoon.
• Engage with boys and encourage them to do their piano practice, homework etc.
• Monitor where the boys are, making sure they are doing something constructive (not computer screens)
• Be fun with the boys, we have a park across the road, can play basketball, kick the football etc.
• Take the job seriously, think about what you could do to better maximise time with the boys, but also variety and fun in their lives.
• Suggest the meals for the next week, make a plan for the following week.
• Sometimes the boy’s grandmother may be around in an afternoon to help with homework etc, so working with the family set up
• Communicate with us how the day went, and what we could all do to improve the afternoons.
• Talk to the boys in French around the house, as they are both learning French at school.
• Potential for an extra afternoon, or babysitting on weekend if you are available.
• If any time available, to just do a bit of cleaning and tidying around the home.

If you are available and would be interested, we would love to see a resume so please send that along. And we would like to talk to some references - families or places that you have worked before as a carer, so please provide name, what you did for them and number.

We would also like to meet you to talk it through it person, hopefully see you soon.

Hello,
By way of introduction my name is Michelle, I live in North Sydney with my 2 daughters 8 y.o at school & 3.5 y.o in preschool. I work full time between the city & home & am looking for a regular baby sitter.

Ideally I would like a mature age local woman who has experience with children. With the hope of engaging once a week most weeks to give me some me time, attend work commitments, socialise etc.

Sometime this would include the pick up from after school care & pre school (both by 6pm) which are both close walking distance from home or a rare overnighter. There also might be instances where I would need your help a couple times a week if I am particularly busy.

I am looking for someone that is warm, fun & friendly, trustworth & engaging with the girls with reading, activities a trip to the park, library or out for a baby-cino or ice cream.

Anyway, happy to discuss further & thank you for your time.
Warm regards,

Hello!

We are looking for a responsible, experienced and caring part-time babysitter/nanny to help with our 2 year old for four hours every Tuesday morning. We also have a newborn baby, but the care would be only for the toddler, and would not require you to watch both children at the same time (at least not right now).

We are looking for someone who can provide care in the morning for our two year old so Mum can take the newborn to sensory classes or mothers groups without the toddler, or just generally catch up around the home or on errands whilst toddler is being entertained either at home or at the park. This would be from about 8:30am-1pm at minimum 1 day a week (Tuesday)

The ideal person would be happy to spend the time engaging thoughtfully and creatively 1-on-1 with the toddler either inside or outside the home. This is not a role where a candidate is just ‘supervising’ the child, but truly engaging and entertaining her through doing different actives in the home (like drawing, singing, pretend play, reading etc) or taking her to the park and engage with her whilst she plays on the equipment or run around with her etc.

Looking for someone that ideally has experience with this age group, lives on the lower north shore or can commute here easily, and has a schedule that can accomodate this position.

Thank you and look forward to hearing from you :)
