Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Fitzroy VIC

We are in Melbourne for the weekend from Sydney, and looking for a babysitter on the evening of July 24th to attend our friends art opening, and then dinner afterwards. Imagine it will be around 6 hours but will confirm closer to the day! Our gorgeous boy Otis is the sweetest baby! We are looking for someone who is comfortable looking after babies under the age of 1. This babysitting job would require feeding him dinner, followed by a bottle and then putting him to bed. We are staying at a cosy airbnb in Collingwood.

Our gorgeous nanny is going back home to Ireland soon, so we are looking for a part time (20 - 25 hours a week) nanny for our daughter - 18 months. I work a roster so flexibility appreciated, but I can give good notice as to the schedule. Particularly interested in anyone with teaching, nursing or allied health background but really open to anyone who is the right fit! We are based in Collingwood. Family is myself, my husband our little girl and an enthusiastic blue heeler.
Thanks Alice
