Hi,

My wife and I are looking for a caring, reliable nanny to look after our two young children while we work from home.

We wan to start in the week commencing 3 August, with regular hours on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from approximately 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.

A little about our family:

- Our daughter is 3 years old and attends childcare on some days. She is a bubbly, curious little girl who loves helping out and enjoys creative play.
- Our son is 1 year old and is full of smiles. He's crawling, loves exploring his surroundings, and is at a fun stage of discovering everything around him.

We're looking for someone who enjoys engaging with young children through play, reading, outdoor time, arts and crafts, and other age-appropriate activities. We'd love to minimise screen time, so keeping them entertained without relying on TV or tablets is important to us. We're more than happy to provide or purchase toys, books, or learning materials that you think would help keep them engaged and support their development.

The role would also include light household duties related to the children, such as tidying up toys after playtime, cleaning up after meals, and helping keep the common areas neat throughout the day.

As both my wife and I work from home, there will always be at least one of us nearby if you need any assistance or have any questions.

If you're interested, we'd love to hear from you. When you reply, could you please let us know:

- Your hourly rate.
- Your availability if you want to start before 3rd August.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Thanks,

Qiao

Hi lovely people 👋 I'm looking for someone to help me out on school mornings and I thought I'd try here before going anywhere else.

I need a family assistant — someone experienced, reliable and a driver — to come to our home from 7–10am on weekdays when I have my kids (we run on an 8/6 custody rotation so it's not every week).

The role is pretty simple: help get the kids out the door with lunches packed and uniforms sorted, tidy up once they've left, and handle things like grocery runs and keeping the house stocked. The kind of person who notices we're out of eggs or that the firewood is running low — without needing to be told.

Kids are school-aged and independent, so this isn't a childcare role. I'm just looking for someone switched-on and trustworthy who knows how a family home runs.

Additional casual work after school and on weekends
