Hi there!
We live in Richmond, though it's more like Cremorne, and we have a baby who is 7 weeks old (as at December 21) and a son who is 3.5. I'm looking for someone to arrive early - 6am - on his daycare days (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday) and help me get him ready for daycare and then walk him up to daycare. Depending on experience with babies, I'd also like it if you can hold the baby for me while I do jobs in the house or I could take my son to daycare instead some days while you hold the baby at home. Once my son is dropped at daycare, I'm hoping you can come back to our house and do an hour or two of housework including clothes washing or dish washing. The morning job would be about 6am - 10am.
In the evening, we're hoping someone can pick my son up from daycare, walk back to our house, and help me get dinner organised before bathing my son and prepping him for bed. The evening would be about 5pm - 7:30pm.
If interested, we could meet at our house and have a chat. Police check, working with children's check and first aid essential. Thank you! Alexis

Hello!

We are looking to meet a lovely (and very experienced) babysitter for Wednesdays from around 9:00AM - 12:30PM (ish) each week in February/March/April.

👩‍🎨 About the role:
We have a clever and quirky 3.5 year old!

The role will be about 3.5 hours per week on a Wednesday. We're hoping this can be an ongoing role, but we tend to decide week-to-week if the babysitting day is needed, so we have listed it as casual. The shift is on Wednesday mornings (9:00AM - 12:30PM tends to work). We work from home, so generally one or both of us will be home during the shift - but in a different area of the house.

📝 About you:
We are looking for someone who has experience working with children of a similar age. You have an interest in teaching young ones about life! We're looking to meet someone who is attentive, nurturing, patient, fun, caring, gentle and calm. We're looking to meet someone who has the energy to keep his developing mind busy (he's go go go!) He is sensitive and responds well to calm play (not too loud or intense).

We are hoping to meet someone who has experience with 3 year olds specifically and can help him with his general independence and learning about life.

👦 About the client:
Our 3.5 year old is a beautiful, quirky, clever and loves (LOVES) to chat! He loves when he is engaging with his favourite games and conversations - planets, numbers, learning new words and languages, maths, arts and crafts, reading, puzzles, books, quizzes, singing and imaginary play with his toys. He's a busy boy!

He is potty trained but still needs occasional assistance/reminding! A very, very selective eater but in this short shift we'll just provide his favourite snacks. A huge bonus if you've had experience with selective eaters (but not necessary). He's an avid learner and is happiest when he's learning or experimenting with something new.

👫About the parents:
We are both freelancers who work in music and the arts. We are openminded and we value honesty, humour, nature, kindness, empathy and compassion. We want to ensure the babysitters we work with feel supported and valued in their role!

I used to be a babysitter/nanny myself and met most of my babysitting clients on this website. I made so many amazing, longstanding connections with the families of the kids who are all grown up now and I still keep in touch with them and visit them 15-20 years later! Babysitting taught me so much that I am now applying as a Mamma.

We are looking forward to hearing from you. We will generally organise a phone call first, then a one hour trial period (to make sure it's the right fit for everyone).

Thanks,
Charlotte & family

Hello

We are a family of five in Ivanhoe looking for a nanny to care for our 3 kids after school on Monday and Tuesday. Our current nanny's university timetable does not allow for her to continue her current role.

We have a 9-year-old boy (Grade 4) and 7-year-old boy/girl twins (Grade 2). You would be responsible for school pick up, taking kids to after school activities, doing readers with the kids, preparing kids' dinner and minor housework (cleaning lunch boxes, emptying dishwasher if required, dinner clean up).

School is within walking distance, or you will also have access to our car or 2 x booster seats if you would prefer to use your car. At this stage, the only after school activity is tutoring on Monday in Heidelberg for our eldest son, which would require you to drop him off at 4.30pm.

Also, if you would be happy to start earlier on one day to assist with kids' washing (folding and putting away) and other light household tasks, please let me know.

My husband and I work from home occasionally, so one of us may be home on some of the days, but we have a separate study and generally keep out of the way!

We also have an over friendly cocker spaniel called Frankie who will be happy to have a new friend to pester for pats.

Rate: $30 + p/h depending on experience (happy to discuss)

Please get in touch if this sounds of interest to you! Also happy to chat if you can only do some of the days required.

We are looking for a reliable, warm and confident nanny to support with our second child arriving in April. Approximately 4-5 hours a day for 4 days a week (possibility to increase over time). Experience with newborns is a must to be able to support feeding, sleeping etc. There will also be some housekeeping tasks required including laundry, tidying, basic meal prep, simple cleaning. We also have a toddler who will be in child care and a medium sized hypoallergenic dog. We’re looking for someone interested in a longer-term role. Vaccinations need to be up to date (including flu/COVID/TDAP)

We are looking for a dedicated, kind and loyal nanny to care for our 3 children. The candidate would need their own car and would need to pick up children from school and take them for sports practice. Standard mileage would be paid. We would ideally like a candidate who could help prepare children's meals and supervise homework. We are looking for someone available to do 25 to 30 hours per week during term time and 50 to 55 hours a week during school holidays, which on an annualised basis is close to full time. These hours are somewhat flexible We would like a candidate who is kind, trustworthy and ideally someone who is interested in sporting and other practical activities. WWC check and references essential. Experience in childcare essential. Hourly rate $35 to $40 depending on experience. We look forward to hearing from you!

We’re a relaxed, easy-going family looking for a kind, reliable babysitter/nanny to become part of our weekly routine. We value warmth, flexibility, and someone who’s happy to muck in and help where needed. The role will start immediately after a successful trial.

About the Children
• Two boys aged 9 months and 3 years
• Both are happy, curious, and love interactive play

About the Parents
• Mother: Psychologist, recently moved from the UK
• Father: working in a Tech startup

About You
• Experience with babies and toddlers is a bonus (but we’re also open to someone keen to learn)

• Calm, reliable, and proactive
• Comfortable helping out with household tasks as part of the role
• Looking for consistent, ongoing part-time work

Hours

• Thursdays: 4:00–7:00pm
• From end of April: Additional Wednesday's 4:00–7:00pm

About the Role
This is very much a team effort role. One parent (myself or my partner) will usually be around at home or working from home - we’re just looking for an extra pair of capable hands during that busy after-work window.

You’ll be happy to:
• Jump in and play with the kids (reading, games, age-appropriate activities)
• Help supervise and care for the children while we’re around
• Assist with household tasks related to the kids (tidying toys, bottles, dishes)
• Do simple/light meal prep or help with dinner for the children
• Generally help keep things running smoothly during the afternoon/evening routine

We’re not looking for perfection - just someone practical, helpful, and comfortable pitching in.

This role would suit someone who enjoys being part of a family’s rhythm and wants steady hours, with the opportunity for extra shifts over time.

If this sounds like a good fit, please get in touch with a short intro, your experience, and availability. We’d love to hear from you 😊
