We are a family of four (from Camberwell) with two young children aged 2 and 4, plus a friendly small dog aged 10.

We’re looking for someone kind, reliable and proactive to help with the kids and general household tasks. This role would likely suit someone looking for some extra work alongside study, another job, or flexible casual hours.

Tasks may include:
- Playing with and entertaining the children, including setting up age-appropriate activities
- Assisting with morning routines (getting dressed, brushing teeth, hair, etc.)
- Helping navigate the occasional sibling disagreement!
- Assisting with preparing breakfast or dinner and encouraging the kids to help clean up afterwards
- Setting up the children’s bedrooms for bedtime
- Laundry and folding
- General tidying and household support
- Helping involve the children in pack-up and cleaning routines where possible
- Ad hoc household help such as unpacking the dishwasher or washing dishes

Please note:
We already have a regular cleaner and a robot vacuum, so no heavy-duty cleaning is required. However, we are looking for someone happy to help keep the household running smoothly alongside caring for the children. For example, if the children are out of the house during part of your shift, we would appreciate help with tidying toys, folding laundry, or resetting kids’ spaces.

Hours:
Exact hours are still being finalised, but shifts will likely include:
- Early mornings before kinder/daycare
- Evenings after we get home
- Possibly some daytime hours on Wednesdays and weekends

We’re flexible and happy to work around your availability, though some early morning or evening availability is essential. Shifts will generally be around 2–3 hours, with some longer occasional shifts on weekends and Wednesdays.

We’re hoping to find someone warm, engaging and comfortable juggling both children and light household support as part of family life.

Hello! We are looking for a Nanny to join our family for approx. 3 days per week to look after our 1 year old daughter Violet and 4 year old daughter Charlotte. Our current nanny is finishing in June and therefore we are looking for someone to start as soon as possible to enable a smooth handover.

The days we are looking for support are Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from approx. 7:30am - 6:30pm/7pm. Our 4 year old daughter Charlotte will be in Kinder on these days and we are hoping to find someone who is happy to do drop off and pick up on these days and care for our 1 year old while Charlotte is in Kinder and then both children together in the afternoon/evening. We are looking for someone who loves children, is creative and who can build a great relationship with both our girls. As my husband and I both work fairly long hours we are hoping to find someone who is also happy to help out with light household duties and cleaning e.g. dishes, laundry, grocery shopping, cooking for Violet and Charlotte etc and also who may be able to cook a couple of dinners per week or help with meal prep. If this sounds like a job that might fit what you're looking for, please message me to connect :)

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.

We are a busy professional family based in Kooyong looking for a caring, reliable and energetic nanny to help with our three lovely children — 9-year-old twin boys and a 3-year-old girl.

Our much-loved long-term nanny is sadly moving on after finishing university and starting her career in her chosen field, so we are looking for someone new to become part of our family.

The role will primarily involve:

* School and kinder drop-offs and pick-ups
* Caring for our 3-year-old on Wednesdays
* Taking children to after-school activities
* Helping keep the day running smoothly

Regular hours required:

* Tuesdays & Thursdays: school/kinder drop-offs and pick-ups
* Wednesdays: full day

We live in Kooyong, with school in Hawthorn and kinder in Armadale — all within a small radius (under 3km). While driving distances are minimal, a driver’s licence is essential.

We would highly value someone with flexibility for:

* Longer hours during school holidays
* The occasional Monday

We are open-minded about how the role could work and would happily consider:

* Splitting the role across multiple people
* Different employment arrangements
* Expanding the position into a broader home manager role for the right person

Pay is $35–40 per hour, negotiable depending on experience and responsibilities.

I am currently on leave, so the role is not urgently needing to be filled, and we can be flexible with a start date from July onwards for the right person.

We are looking for someone warm, organised and dependable who enjoys being around children and becoming part of family life. If this sounds like a good fit, we would love to hear from you!

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
