Hello,

I am looking for a reliable and warm carer to help with my 9 year old son. He has autism but is high functioning. He is a beautiful sweet natured little boy and is in grade 3. My son is friendly and loves people and loves playing with trains, Harry Potter, titanic, boats and building lego.

My son finds attending Oosh (before and after school care at his school) overwhelming. Therefore I have received funding for someone to come Mon 730 to 9 am and 330 to 530 pm. Must drive and have own car as it would involve taking him to and from school. Given he is eligible for funding the person must have an early child care qualification eg cert 3 in early childcare or currently studying it. Competitive hourly rate

What the role involves
* School drop off and pick up (will compensate for petrol)
* My son is fairly independent with getting ready and will be ready for school by the time the person arrives at 7:30 am. I usually have lunches packed but on the odd occassion it may involve finishing lunch off.
* Playing with him in the morning
* After school helping with homework
* Reminding him to have a shower (he can shower himself)
* I do not expect any housework

Essential criteria
* Experience with children
* Refernces
* Current first Aide
* Own Car
* Studying or qualifications in early child care

Desirable criteria
* Previous experience with autistic children or a willingness to learn more about how to support autistic children

This role would suit someone local who is studying (early child care) or easing back into work.

If you have any questions please reach out

Hi, I'm a solo mother of twin boys based in Beaumaris. I am looking for help with picking up (or taking) my children from school in Camberwell each day. This will be a couple of hours a day, at least 4 days each week during the school term, starting May 2026. However, it's important that you forge a strong relationship with my kids, so I would be interested in you starting sooner on a less frequent basis, if that's of interest.

The boys speak French and English. Ideally, if you speak French that would be a huge bonus.
Looking for someone who doesn't get overly stressed about typical kid stuff, and doesn't mind the drive from Camberwell to Beaumaris. You must have your own vehicle and be happy having booster seats in the car when you drive them. Most likely looking for your help in the afternoons, Monday through Thursday, potentially eventually Friday mornings, too.

Needing someone reliable - this is key. If you can't commit for the full 2026 academic year then please don't apply - my kids will become attached to you (and I will need your support).

Thank you if you have taken the time to read this far! Hope to hear from you. Rate negotiable depending upon experience.

Looking for a Special “Big Sister” / Babysitter 🤩

-Basketball and team sports
-Arts, crafts, drawing or painting
-Making friendship or loom bracelets
-Singing and dancing
-Gymnastics or active play
-Nature, animals, and outdoor adventures

The idea is to spend quality time together, play, create, laugh, and inspire confidence while having fun.

Role includes school pick up at 3:30pm, collecting youngest child from care nearby, bringing the children home, helping with homework, afternoon tea, playtime and serving pre-prepared dinner.

Ability to provide invoices for NDIS claiming purposes is required.

We are looking for a reliable and caring babysitter in the Caulfield Area to help with our afternoon routine.

Hi, I’m looking for a warm, bubbly, and patient babysitter with experience in disability. We have a gorgeous neurodivergent boy (autistic/ADHD/Intellectual Disability) who is 7 and developmentally around 1-2 years old. He is nonspeaking, very active, and has a lovely happy temperament. He loves any movement-based activities to keep him entertained and regulated. He is very quick and we need someone who will be hypervigilant around him to keep him safe. The right person will be someone who doesn’t mind being on their feet all the time - as my boy runs around constantly and requires long walks in the pram each day. We are looking for help on Fridays after school (3-7pm) and also Saturdays (2-6pm). The role involves picking him up from school, feeding, supervising and playing with him at home, nappy changes, bath time, and taking him out to the park. He has no sense of danger so does require constant following and supervision. Must have a reliable car.

Please feel free to ask any questions at all!
