One of our lovely sitters is moving on and we are hopeful someone can help us on a Thursday before and after school, and also Tuesday and Friday mornings. ! Our two children Thomas 8yrs old & Lilli 11yrs old attend two differing schools. You would be required to arrive at 7.30am on the mornings and assist our youngest with getting ready for school. With our spare car, an Audi A4 wagon, you will drop off Thomas to Grimwade in Elsternwick and - occasionally - Lilli to Korowa in Glen Iris and then drive back to Elsternwick to bring back the car. All done by 8:30 or so!
For Thurs afternoon - 2.45pm you will arrive at our home to use our car to pick up children, Thomas first and occasionally - the reverse order to morning drop-off.
Upon returning to our house, the following routine is typical:
-30min play/snack period
-Lilli to complete her homework
-bath or shower Thomas
- cook up dinner for the two children (I usually prep veggies and meal for you)
-This shift ends circa 6.30-7pm
-ideally kitchen and living area are both tidy when we arrive home. And that’s it!
Our two children are beautiful, cuddly and polite and Lilli can assist with Thomas. Your own car is not essential however your ability to drive is. Both my husband Mark and I work full time but we are always a text message away.

Hi, my partner and I are parents to an adorable two-month old baby girl. We need help with her care during morning and early afternoon hours. We are professionals and have high-functioning and cognitively demanding jobs. We often work from home so need those hours for focused work. We need two days a week care for 4 hours per day. Days will be between Mon-Thurs and we can be flexible with that. Hours are 9am-1pm. We are looking for someone with baby experience. We value privacy, cleanliness, friendliness, and safety very much for our family and relationships. If you are interested in working with us, then please reach out!
We are looking a Nanny for our identical twin girls who are currently 7 months old.
Needing Wednesdays 8am-5pm and Friday mornings 8:30am-12:30
Potential to increase to other days towards the end of June as I increase my work days.
Twins currently do 2x 2hour naps during the day, so basic household jobs relating to the kids (washing, tidying toys, meal prep) can be done during this time.
We also have an almost three year old girl, however she will be in daycare (there may be the odd occassion when she is also home to be looked after on a Friday morning).
We have a Groodle who loves attention so someone comfortable with dogs is essential!
Experience with babies under 12m essential, experience with twins a bonus!
We’re looking for a special person to care for our wonderful 4-year-old daughter, who has a physical disability and epilepsy. She is full of life, loves to play, chat, and engage with everyone.

Ideally, we’d love a nursing or medical student who is confident, calm, and responsible—someone who can follow an emergency plan if a seizure occurs (though these are infrequent and mostly happen at night). She also requires physical assistance throughout the day.
We’re looking for care on Mondays (during the day) with potential for occasional extra hours on other days/evenings. We are based in Hawthorn East.
If this sounds like you (or someone you know), please reach out—I’d be happy to share more details.

How are you ?!
I am looking for a babysitter who can really engage with my kids who are 5 and 8.
They have vastly different personalities so you need to be able to speak with them and engage with them differently , creatively and compassionately and sometimes be a mediator ! It will really come down to how well you can interact with them and really how much they gravitate towards you.
Everything else that I would require is the standard police check , wwc , driving , responsibility and safety etc etc !
At the moment it is casual work moving into the holidays and then it’ll be regular !
Look forward to chatting if you’re free, available and willing to!
