Hi,
We are looking for a babysitter for after school pickups Mondays and Thursdays, including taking the kids to and from activities.
We live in Surrey Hills and have 3 kids, going into grades 2, 4 and year 7. Babysitting will be primarily for our primary school aged boys, who do basketball and swimming, and we’re also looking for the evening meal to be prepared (and served to the kids if needed, depending on the time) - these won’t be gourmet and we’ll leave instructions!
Generally hours would be from school pickup to about 6/6.30pm, but where needed we can flex as hopefully could you.
If this sounds of interest to you, please get in touch, I’d be happy to have a chat and answer any questions.
Thanks very much,
Stephanie

Hello,
My name is Chris, and I wanted to introduce myself and our family. We’re based in Surrey Hills and are currently looking for a babysitter for our daughter, Jazz, who is 5 months old. We also have a 9 year old, Lia but we would be looking after her and dropping at school etc.

We’re looking for someone available for full days, approximately 7:30am to 4:30pm. Care would be for Jazz only, and we’re hoping to find someone reliable, caring, and comfortable looking after babies of this age.

If this sounds like something you might be interested in, we’d love to have a chat and see if it could be a good fit.

Thanks so much, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Chris and Anna.

We’re looking for someone awesome to take care of our two boys aged (almost) 4 and 6 at our place in Surrey Hills.

We need someone reliable that can commit ongoing for one day a week on a Thursday (with the potential option of a second day on a Friday). Hours would generally be 7:30am to 5:30/6pm.

Whilst there might be a little bit of food prep needed for the kids, the main focus of the role is caring for and playing with the boys.

The 6 year old will be at school from 9am-3:30 so drop off and pick up would generally be part of the routine for the day. School is a few blocks walk or the car will be available on those days if needed.

Both boys are happy, energetic and always on the go. We are close to a couple of great parks which they love going to and the car is here some days for trips to the zoo and other activities.

Mum does the school run in the morning and picks the girls up after school to take them to swimming lessons. Some help with dishes/laundry appreciated. Food prep for kids and relevant clean up required. We often need extra help on other weekdays, weekends, or in the evenings for date nights etc :)

Please be able to provide information regarding:
- drivers license status (full/red/green P etc)
- WWCC
- First aid training
- Vaccination status (whooping cough, covid etc)
- Any relevant training qualifications and/or experience

Start - as soon as possible. Latest start February 11th.

We’re looking for a caring, reliable casual babysitter/nanny to look after our two boys (16 months and 3 years old) in our home in Templestowe Lower. The role is a minimum of one day per week, with the possibility of additional days as needed.

Your days with the boys will include walking to the park, riding bikes, playing sports, and enjoying creative activities such as arts and crafts, games, and simple cooking or baking together.

During nap times, we’d appreciate light household help such as folding laundry, tidying play areas, cleaning up after activities, and occasional vacuuming.

We’re hoping to find someone warm, energetic, and genuinely engaged with little ones. If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!

Hello!

We are looking to meet a lovely (and very experienced) babysitter for Wednesdays from around 9:00AM - 12:30PM (ish) each week in February/March/April.

👩‍🎨 About the role:
We have a clever and quirky 3.5 year old!

The role will be about 3.5 hours per week on a Wednesday. We're hoping this can be an ongoing role, but we tend to decide week-to-week if the babysitting day is needed, so we have listed it as casual. The shift is on Wednesday mornings (9:00AM - 12:30PM tends to work). We work from home, so generally one or both of us will be home during the shift - but in a different area of the house.

📝 About you:
We are looking for someone who has experience working with children of a similar age. You have an interest in teaching young ones about life! We're looking to meet someone who is attentive, nurturing, patient, fun, caring, gentle and calm. We're looking to meet someone who has the energy to keep his developing mind busy (he's go go go!) He is sensitive and responds well to calm play (not too loud or intense).

We are hoping to meet someone who has experience with 3 year olds specifically and can help him with his general independence and learning about life.

👦 About the client:
Our 3.5 year old is a beautiful, quirky, clever and loves (LOVES) to chat! He loves when he is engaging with his favourite games and conversations - planets, numbers, learning new words and languages, maths, arts and crafts, reading, puzzles, books, quizzes, singing and imaginary play with his toys. He's a busy boy!

He is potty trained but still needs occasional assistance/reminding! A very, very selective eater but in this short shift we'll just provide his favourite snacks. A huge bonus if you've had experience with selective eaters (but not necessary). He's an avid learner and is happiest when he's learning or experimenting with something new.

👫About the parents:
We are both freelancers who work in music and the arts. We are openminded and we value honesty, humour, nature, kindness, empathy and compassion. We want to ensure the babysitters we work with feel supported and valued in their role!

I used to be a babysitter/nanny myself and met most of my babysitting clients on this website. I made so many amazing, longstanding connections with the families of the kids who are all grown up now and I still keep in touch with them and visit them 15-20 years later! Babysitting taught me so much that I am now applying as a Mamma.

We are looking forward to hearing from you. We will generally organise a phone call first, then a one hour trial period (to make sure it's the right fit for everyone).

Thanks,
Charlotte & family
