Hi there!

We are looking for a proven part-time babysitter. We are located in Caulfield North and have a 8-month-old girl and a 3-year-old boy. Both are very calm and easy-going kids. We also have a Cavoodle that is friendly. My husband works from home part-time, so he can be around to support where required.

1. Monday - 08:30 to 12:30 - both kids.
2. Wednesday - 09:00 to 17:00 - only the baby girl.

Lana

We’re a busy family with three young boys and both parents working full time. We’re looking for someone experienced, organised and proactive to take the lead on Tuesdays and Fridays, caring for our two younger boys, aged 3 and 5, while also helping keep the household running smoothly during the day.

Tuesday: 8:30 am to 5:00 pm
Friday: 8:30 am to 4:00 pm, with occasional 5:00 pm finishes
Rate: $35 to $40 per hour, depending on experience
Location: Hawthorn

The boys love getting out and about, including trips to the local library, Bounce, playgrounds, museums, the zoo and other activities. We both work from home, so having someone who can confidently take ownership of the day, plan activities and get the boys out of the house has worked really well for us.

There are no school or kinder pick-ups required.

You’ll need your own car and a full driver’s licence. We provide the car seats.

We also have a friendly family Groodle, so you’ll need to be comfortable around dogs, but there is no dog walking or pet care involved.

Alongside caring for the boys, we’re looking for someone who is happy to help keep things ticking over at home, including resetting the boys’ bedrooms, kitchen and living area, keeping on top of their things and preparing food for them during the day. We have a cleaner, so this is more about keeping the house organised and reset rather than heavy cleaning.

We’d love someone who naturally sees what needs doing, is confident taking initiative and can help make those two days run smoothly for the whole family.

Previous nanny or childcare experience is important, and we’re looking for someone who can commit to the role for the remainder of 2026.

Our current nanny, who we found through this site, is moving to regional Victoria and will be finishing up with us shortly. She is very happy to provide a reference about the role and our family.

If you’re interested, please send me a message with a little about yourself and your experience.

Hi my names Brooklyn, I'm 2 years old and I live with my mummy, daddy, baby sister Riviera and dog Maxi in St Kilda. We are looking for a nanny to come play with me, care for me and take me out on adventures and also help out with my little sister Riviera in the new year, she's currently too small only being 6 weeks old to leave mummy's side.
My parents Teneille and Eddie run their own business and would love someone to come join us and help out x2-x3 days a week! They are flexible with days.
I am a happy, easy going social little guy who enjoys company and someone to create fun with me and keep me safe when my parents aren't around.
I love the outdoors and getting dirty, even though my mum has to do lots of my washing hehe
I recently have had a nanny, for the past year and enjoyed spending time with her, I adapt well to new people.
My mummy and daddy said they would like nannies to apply who are passionate about early childhood development, ideally have studied some form of childcare and have experience looking after young children and have up to date reference checks.
This position is long term, someone I can bond with and get to know and grow together
If this job speaks to you, my parents would love to hear from you!

We are looking for an experienced, reliable, kind, fun and easy-going nanny who can help out with our 3 gorgeous girls (7, 5 and 4 years old)

We are looking for someone that can help on Monday and Tuesday after school hours (3 to 6:30-7.00pm).

The 3 girls are at the same school, which is walking distance or a short drive from our house.

The role would primarily be helping with:
- school pick-ups
- taking to after school activities nearby
- bringing home and helping with dinner/ bath

Please note, we do require you have your license. Our car can be used for pickups..

We are after Mon and Tues after school.

If this is something that you may be interested in, we’d love to hear from you.

Looking for someone for a Term 4 start, 3-7pm.

Two gorgeous kids (10 & 13). Includes school pick up at 3:30pm and then sports pick up later in the afternoon at variable locations - usually Glen Iris. After sports pick up it would be driving home and preparing an easy dinner for the kids.

Own car preferable (will pay the relevant and calculated ATO petrol rates).

We’re a family with three boys aged 13, 10 and 8, and we’re looking for someone warm, reliable and capable who would ideally like to stay with us long term.

We’re looking for help for around 2–3 hours Monday–Thursday afternoons, as well as occasional evening babysitting for date nights. The afternoons will vary depending on the boys’ activities and may include school/activity drop-offs, helping with homework, laundry and ironing, simple meal prep and general light household help.

We’d love someone who is mature, kind, organised and happy to take some initiative.

$32–$35/hour depending on experience.

Please send us a short, personal introduction about yourself, your experience, availability, whether you drive, and why you think the role might suit you. No need for a formal or polished cover letter — we’d much rather get a feel for who you are.

I’ll be travelling overseas with work and we need some help picking up / dropping off our 3 boys at school while I’m away. Also help making dinner for the boys, tidying house and walking our dog Frankie.

We’re looking for a warm, fun and energetic male babysitter/manny to become a regular part of our family’s support network and spend time with our two children, aged 8 and 10.

We’d particularly love to find someone who genuinely enjoys hanging out with kids and is happy getting outdoors and doing active things — kicking a soccer ball or footy, shooting hoops, bike rides, trips to the park, swimming, or whatever the kids are interested in. Our 8-year-old son would especially benefit from someone who can help him build confidence with ball sports in a really casual, fun way — we’re definitely not looking for formal coaching!

Our 10-year-old daughter may sometimes want to join in and at other times do her own thing, so we’re looking for someone who is equally happy spending time with both kids and following their interests.

Both children have lots of interests beyond sport and we’d love someone who can just enjoy being with them — whether that means Minecraft, Lego, drawing, playing games, going on an outing or having a kick at the park.

This isn’t intended to be a super-structured role. We’re really looking for the right person: someone kind, responsible, engaged and playful who could ideally build a great ongoing relationship with the kids. It could suit a uni student, teacher/PE teacher in training, sports coach or someone already working with children.

Initially we’re thinking a few hours once or twice a week, with flexibility for additional babysitting, weekends and school holidays if it suits everyone.

A current Working With Children Check is essential, and we’d also require references and a police check. A driver’s licence, first aid qualification and previous experience with primary-school-aged children would be highly regarded.

Most importantly, we’re looking for someone reliable and trustworthy who really likes kids and will make spending time together feel like fun rather than another organised activity.

We are a family in Elsternwick with a 3-year-old son and 6-month-old daughter looking for a self-motivated helper to take the mental load off us. We need someone who notices what needs doing and handles tidying and meal prep independently without step-by-step instructions.

3 hours/week (flexible day/time)
*Meal Prep:Independently plan, organise ingredients for, and cook at least 1 family meal per week.
* Occasional Babysitting:~1 session/month. Our son is slow to warm up to new people, so we want to start building a gentle relationship now so he feels comfortable with you before kinder pickups start next year. Must be comfortable managing both baby and toddler routines.

Schedule (Wed & Fri)
3:00–4:00 pm: family dinner prep + clean kitchen
