9 Month Maternity Leave Cover!

I’m looking for someone to cover myself while I’m on maternity leave. End of August 2026 - June 2027. This role is less nannying and more of a household assistant role.

Jack is a gorgeous 15 year old, you’ll mainly need to be his chauffeur to school and appointments, along with getting up for school, lunch boxes and organising any school requirements.

The household has cleaners once a week but needs help on daily household duties, cleaning up after meals, washing and ironing, general tidy up, going to dry cleaners and chemist, doing grocery shopping and meal preparation.

Looking for someone experienced with household duties, can cook and with good management skills. 3-4 days a week, 6.30am-2.30pm.

Must be ok with cats and dogs.

I look forward to hearing from you :)

Hi There, we're parents (Nikki & Tom) to a 9m old girl and a 4y old boy. I (Nikki) will be heading back to work from the 3rd August so we're looking for a Nanny that can start asap looking after our 9m old baby girl (very sweet, easy and happy) Monday to Thursday and then Fridays as well from November. Starting from around 9am until around 5pm.

We'd love the right candidate to be able to start earlier (June/ July, 10am - 4pm) so we can all be in a good routine with me being still available at home before I transition to back to full time work. There will be some days you may need to look after our 4y old son too (very sweet, easy child), but otherwise this is predominantly for our baby.

The Nanny would need to have a car, open to light household help (meal prep, folding washing, tidying).

Requirements: WWCC, strong references and experience with babies.

We're a pretty relaxed family - wanting someone experienced who genuinely loves kids, is organised, punctual, fits in with our family. Hoping for someone to stay with us long term.

Thank so much, please reach out with a brief intro, experience and availability.

Nikki & Tom

Immediate start.

We are a busy professional family based in Kooyong looking for a caring, reliable and energetic nanny to help with our three lovely children — 9-year-old twin boys and a 3-year-old girl.

Our much-loved long-term nanny is sadly moving on after finishing university and starting her career in her chosen field, so we are looking for someone new to become part of our family.

The role will primarily involve:

* School and kinder drop-offs and pick-ups

* Taking children to after-school activities
* Helping keep the day running smoothly

We would highly value someone with flexibility for:

* Longer hours during school holidays
* The occasional Monday

We are open-minded about how the role could work and would happily consider:

* Splitting the role across multiple people
* Different employment arrangements
* Expanding the position into a broader home manager role for the right person

Pay is $35–40 per hour, negotiable depending on experience and responsibilities.

I am currently on leave, so the role is not urgently needing to be filled, and we can be flexible with a start date from July onwards for the right person.

We are looking for someone warm, organised and dependable who enjoys being around children and becoming part of family life. If this sounds like a good fit, we would love to hear from you!

I'm also hoping for a longer day on Thursdays for my younger two - with daytime outings/playground etc
