We are looking for a kind, caring person to join our family next year!

Our beautiful nanny of two years is graduating and moving rural, so we will sadly be farewelling her at the end of year and looking for someone to help us care for the girls. We have 3 daughters who are aged 2, 4 and 6.

Requirements:
- One full day with our 2 yr old per week
- + 4 hours house work per week
- School/kinder drop-offs and pickup
- 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.

- Reliable.
- We still need to iron out what the hours will look like as two of the girls are starting at new childcare/kinders and it may take a bit of getting used to.
- 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.

Thank you xx

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. 🤍

Hello, my name is Anna.

We are a family of five living in Malvern, with three boys aged 7, 6 and 5, and we are looking for someone for regular, casual babysitting.

We would love to find someone who is responsible, mature, energetic and proactive, and who genuinely enjoys spending time with children.

Our boys love playing sport outdoors, exploring nature, baking and playing games, so we are hoping to find someone who enjoys getting involved and having fun with them.

We are also looking for someone who is happy to help with simple household tasks and tidy up after the boys as part of their role.

Evening babysitting may include things like emptying the dishwasher, tidying up and folding the children’s laundry when needed.

Most importantly, we hope to find someone who will enjoy spending time with our boys and become a trusted, valued part of our family. We would love to build a great relationship with someone we can rely on and who feels equally comfortable and happy working with us.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Many thanks,
Anna

Hello amazing nannies!

We are a family of four (plus two small, friendly dogs) looking for a warm, reliable and active nanny to care for our two energetic boys, who will be 4 and 2 years old by early 2027. Our beloved long-time nanny is sadly returning home to Scotland after several years with us. We are looking for a special person our boys can build that same, close connection with.

Because I am a Master's student, my roster changes slightly between semesters, so this role is perfect for someone who can be flexible and adjust to a dynamic schedule!

The Schedule:
- For the remainder of this year: casual evening babysitting (Fri/Sat) to get to know the boys and build familiarity.
- December: Some casual half-days (daytime care).
- Late Jan to Early March 2027: Official role starts at 2 full days per week (8:00 am – 3:30 pm).
- March - Mid-Year (Semester 1): Approx. 14–15 hours per week (e.g. 3 half-days from 8:00 am – 1:00 pm). Exact days/times confirmed mid-February once my timetable is finalised.
- University Semester Breaks: Returns to 2 full days per week (8:00 am – 3:30 pm)

Key Responsibilities:
- Keeping the boys active and engaged without screen time. Managing a transition to quiet play, drawing or reading with the 4yo while the 2yo takes his midday nap.
- Outings & Kinder Runs: Taking the boys to local parks and the library. Managing morning drop-offs for our 4-year-old at kindergarten using public transport (he attends 3 days a week).
- Preparing snacks and meals.
- Light Household Help: Folding the kids' clean laundry, unstacking the dishwasher and ensuring play areas are tidied up together after activities.

Our 4yo is anaphylactic to nuts and is currently outgrowing an egg allergy. It is essential that you feel confident and competent identifying reactions and administering an EpiPen if an emergency arises.

We are seeking a mature adult with experience who can commit to the full 2027 calendar year. It is important that you are reliable and arrive on time. This position requires someone who can confidently manage toddler boundaries and big emotions with a caring and gentle approach.

If this sounds like the perfect fit for you and your schedule, we would love to hear from you!
Please send through your experience, qualifications and a bit about yourself.

Ta! :)
