Hello 👋

We’re looking for a reliable, friendly person to hang out with our 6-year-old daughter before school, then walk her to school nearby.

2 mornings a week — days are flexible
7:30am–9:30am | $100 per shift

It’s a simple morning role just keeping her company at home until it’s time to head to school.

If you’re interested, we’d love to hear a little about you, your experience with kids and your availability.

Babysitter/Nanny Wanted – Tue & Thu, Brunswick West

We're looking for a warm, capable, fun person to fill some childcare gaps for our family: an energetic, bright 4-year-old boy and a bubbly 15-month-old girl. Non-smoking, pet-free home.
The role:
- Tuesday, 3–7pm: Care for our daughter, pick up our son from kinder, play, and start the evening routine
- Thursday, 8am–6pm: Full-day care of both children
- Some light housework — things like tidying up and meal prep for the kids, and occasional laundry.
(Happy to swap which day gets the full-day shift if that suits you better.)

Kinder, the library, and parks are all walking distance from home. A driver's licence and a car that fits child seats would be a bonus. First aid training looked on favourably — one of our children has asthma. A current Working With Children Check is essential.
If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you!

Hi

We are looking for afterschool care for our 7 year old boy commencing immediately. Initially we are looking for Monday and Wednesday from 3:30pm to 7pm.

Our family is quite dynamic as two full time executives working and travelling. We have three boys aged 20, 17 and 7. The ‘big boys’ are with us every other week and are fairly self-sufficient. We also have a medium size fluffy dog called Lando who is friendly and gentle and will love pats from you!

We live in Northcote and a 500m walking distance to the primary school for pick up.

We are seeking help two afternoons a week for our youngest from 3:30pm to 7pm. Monday and Wednesday. The role includes collection from school, general playtime, reading, some clothes washing and preparing easy family meals.

We have a nanny at the moment but she is has limited availability and we are seeking additional support. We are hopeful that if this arrangement is successful you will be part of our list of casual carers for weekend events or date nights.

Our ideal nanny is someone responsible with good communication skills, friendly punctual, and proactive.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Regards,

Lindsey & Matt
