Hi! We're looking for a friendly, caring and energetic nanny to spend time with our 2-year-old daughter, Audrey, at our home in Doncaster.

We're mainly looking for someone who enjoys playing with young children, reading books, singing songs and helping them learn through everyday activities.

One thing that's important to us is helping Audrey develop her English, so we'd love someone who speaks fluent English and enjoys chatting with little ones.

If you are mostly free from 4pm-6pm Monday to Friday, please apply and let us know. Most importantly, we'd love to find someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with toddlers and can make learning fun!

Hello, we are looking for help with school and childcare drop off, school and childcare pick up and driving our older two children to after school activities. Our children are 2.5, 9 and 12, they are very polite and happy children and get along very well with everyone. Both mothers are working so we are hoping to have a nanny/babysitter to help us manage the driving. Depending on what you are looking for we can be flexible with the days advertised (ie., if you are not able to do all days but can do most). Applicants must have a drivers licence, WWCC and references. We are keen to chat next week and start as early as the week after. Many thanks, Rachel.

Pick up the children from school and daycare as required.
Supervise and care for the children after pick-up.
Help with afternoon routines and activities.

We are looking for someone who is:

Warm, caring and attentive with young children.
Reliable, punctual and well organised.
Comfortable managing school and daycare drop-offs and pick-ups on foot.
Happy to assist with light household tasks.
Able to commit to a regular part-time schedule.
Previous nanny or childcare experience is preferred. Relevant qualifications, references and a current Working With Children Check would be highly regarded.

The hourly rate is $30–$35, depending on experience and suitability.

I'm having surgery on the 6th November and will be needing a temporary babysitter to help on the weekends during the day for 2 hours-3 hours looking after my almost 2 year old and 3.5 year old boys, and some help with chores or cooking. Ideally on the weekends from 7th November - 29th November 2026.

My 2 year old has many allergies so ideally someone who knows how to deal with anaphylaxis is preferred. My 3.5 year old has speech delay/autism.

We’re looking for a reliable and trustworthy babysitter to help care for our 17-month-old son, on an ad hoc basis, sometimes with fairly short notice.

We’re relatively new to Melbourne and don’t have family support nearby, so we’d love to find someone local who we can build an ongoing relationship with and feel comfortable contacting when we need an extra pair of hands.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Has a current WWCC and Police Check
• Has experience with, or is very confident caring for, children around 17 months old
• Is reliable, responsible and genuinely comfortable with young children
• Lives in or close to Surrey Hills
• Is available during weekday working hours, generally between 9am–6pm
• Is comfortable being in a home with a cat - no pet care is required, he’ll simply be around!

The work would be casual/ad hoc rather than set weekly hours, and occasionally we may need someone at relatively short notice, so someone with a bit of flexibility would be ideal.

We’d really love to find someone warm, dependable and trustworthy who can become a familiar person for our little boy rather than having to find a different babysitter each time.

If you’re interested, please send me a message with a little bit about yourself, your experience with young children, your general availability and your hourly rate. 🤍

He goes to Sessional Kinder on these days and is back home by 2.30 PM.

He ends up watching TV during this time which we do not want. We would like someone who is very engaging, Talkative and play with him, do some activities and sports in the backyard for example.

Hello! We are a friendly young family, two working professionals and one child almost one year old. We are in search of a casual nanny to help look after our child, while I am working from home on weekdays during the day. Open to doing afternoons or whole days, and potential for regular days in the long term. Food for child is already prepared. Lots of space to roam and toys to play with in the house and multiple nearby parks and cafes. We hope it would be a pleasant and enjoyable role. At our core, we value principles of respect and kindness.

We’re looking for a warm, fun and energetic person to help our family and 1-2 afternoons per week 3:00–6/6:30pm. Flexible on days.

Hi, I’m Manoj (dad). We’re a friendly family of four — mum and dad, a 12‑year‑old daughter, and an 8‑year‑old son. I travel frequently for work, and my wife works part‑time on Thursdays and Fridays, so we’re looking for a caring babysitter specifically for those two days.
The role would involve coming to our home around 6:30 am, spending about two hours with the kids, and then dropping our son off at school by 8:30 am (it’s only a 5‑minute drive).
On average, I travel for about two weeks each month, so this won’t be every week — it’s a casual but longer‑term arrangement. We’re happy to pay $35–$40 per hour.
Cheers,
Manoj

The position is for Fridays, approximately 9 am to 4 pm. Duties would include feeding him, settling him for naps, playing and interacting with him, and coming up with age-appropriate activities. While he’s napping, we’d appreciate a little light household help, such as putting on or folding washing and tidying away toys.

We’re hoping to find someone caring and proactive who will become a familiar, trusted person in our family. As we build a good relationship, we’d also love to have you available for occasional babysitting.

- + 4 hours house work per week

- Occasional evening babysitting.
- A confident driver
- Good at house organising, tidying, sorting toys, Tupperware etc, cooking, laundry - someone to help us keep on top of things.

- someone who lives nearby would be a bonus as the drop-offs/pickups may well be shorter hours. We live in East Hawthorn.

Must be alright with dogs as we have a family dog.

If you are interested could you please send me a message with more info on you, what you are looking for, and your experience.

This job wouldn't start until next year as our current babysitter will be with us until then, but we are looking to do some getting to know you hours this year.
