We are a busy family living in Prahran with three kids aged 6, 10 and 11, looking for someone to pick kids up from school on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays, and possibly other evenings or weekends if that is of interest. This usually includes bringing kids home from school or occasionally to after school sport, and making sure they do homework, and play (screen free). Cooking their dinner (usually pretty simple stuff) and tidying up (ideally encouraging kids to clean up after themselves) . We are looking for someone who is able to balance having fun with kids but also not afraid to be firm and show them who’s in charge. If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you!!!
If you’re interested, we’d love to meet you to see if we might be a good fit.

We’re a young family based in South Yarra with our sweet two and a half -year-old son. I work from home and am looking for someone to spend quality, engaged time with him while I work in another room. He is a very happy little boy with a beautiful nature who loves playing, music, story time, being outdoors, staying active, and heading out for adventures like trips to the park or library.

We would ideally love someone who speaks fluent Italian so he can be exposed to and grow up around another language (my heritage is Italian). We would also appreciate help with light household tidying as needed — things like dishwasher loading/unloading, hanging washing, and small daily resets.

We are really hoping to find someone looking for a longer-term role, as building consistency and trust is very important to us. Our little one forms lovely bonds with the people around him, so we are hoping to find someone who is planning to be in Australia long-term to help avoid difficult goodbyes and provide him with stability and continuity.

We are a warm, relaxed and loving household and would love to welcome someone who is genuine, present and kind.

Please reach out if this sounds like you — we’d love to organise a proper chat!

Here are the options:
Mornings 730am - 10am: Getting the boys ready, breakfast, walking to school / daycare
Afternoons 3pm - 7pm : Picking up from school / daycare and taking them to local activities (lessons). Helping with homework and preparing for dinner / showers.

Our ideal nanny should be engaging, energised, organised, calm, disciplined and patient. Whilst drivers license preferred, not necessary as everything is walking distance.

Bonus points if you can help with homework (reading books), play kids games, telling stories and play or understand music.

We'd prefer someone local (ie. within 5km) so please don't apply if you live far away!

Hello!
We are a happy and friendly family of 5 who live in Albert Park, right near the Village, beach, parks and all that our wonderful suburb has to offer.

Thursday -- 2:30 - 5:30/6:30pm (this day is preferred but not priority)

Hi everyone!

We're looking for a nanny to help our family, starting ASAP, with capacity to work up to 3 days a week from Monday-Friday, with occasional weekends, in Toorak.

We have 4 children aged 7 (boy), 5 (boy), and 3 year old twins (boy and girl). The older boys go to school Monday-Friday, and the twins go to kinder on Tuesdays and Fridays. The job would involve preparing breakfast, school and kinder drop offs/pick ups, dinner prep, homework/reading support, bath time, dinner and bed. On the days the twins aren’t at kinder, we would need you to look after them during the day.

I am a midwife doing shift work roughly 3 days a week, with a regularly changing roster. We need someone who is relatively flexible to fit in with that.

We need someone who has their license and is comfortable driving a family van (with reverse camera!), doesn't live too far away, can help with some light housework (laundry, tidying), and who can cook simple children's meals (cereal/toast, pasta).

Hourly rate is negotiable depending on experience.

We are looking for someone to start babysitting with us on a regular basis, 3 days a week during school terms only.

We are a family of 5.
3 boys in primary school aged 7,9,11 (and a 4yo Dalmatian Dog)

The days we are looking for help are as follows:

Wednesday 3.30-8pm
Thursday 3.30-8pm
Saturday 8am-3pm (finishing time varies)

A mixture of school pick up’s and driving the boys to their after school activities, unpacking their school bags, tidying up, and help them to focus on homework when required.
Some experience with neurodivergence would be an advantage.

We’re looking for a caring, reliable and skilled nanny to care for our 14-month-old daughter on Mondays and Wednesdays (approx. 8:30am–4:30pm) in Toorak.

Our daughter is happy, curious and loves books, music and exploring. We’re seeking someone experienced with toddlers who is engaging, safety-focused and confident supporting naps, meals and play.

During nap times, we would ideally seek some help with simple cooking for bub.

We’d love to hear from you if this fits your needs too! References and relevant experience are essential.

We have two daughters, one in kinder (4 years old) and one at primary school (8 years old).

We are looking for someone to care for the girls two afternoons per week, on Tuesdays and Thursdays while we are at work.

The job involves picking the girls up from kinder / school, driving them to sports nearby and bringing them home for dinner. It will be approximately 6 hours per week.

If you have a positive energy, experience caring for kids and are interested in joining our busy family, we would love to hear from you!

Thanks
Kate
