Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Gisborne VIC

Hi there!
My name is Christeen, and I'm looking for a caring and reliable babysitter for our 1-year-old son, Tavi, for two out of the following three days: Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday. I work from home and need someone to care for Tavi during business hours (9am–5pm).

We're hoping to find someone who:
• Can plan age-appropriate, engaging activities that support Tavi’s motor and cognitive development (bonus if you're familiar with Montessori-style play).
• Can assist with preparing and feeding meals.
• Is confident putting him down for naps independently (I'll be around to support you as he gets used to it).
• Can change nappies.
• Can help with his daily routine, especially to support an earlier bedtime around 7pm.
• Wouldn’t mind helping with small daily household tasks while Tavi naps.
• Bonus: Speaks Spanish! I’m hoping to reintroduce the language into our home, and exposure through play and conversation would be wonderful.

We prefer someone who has professional experience working with toddlers aged 1–2, whether as a babysitter, in a daycare or early childhood education setting, and who can provide references for that experience.

Most importantly, we’re looking for someone nurturing, fun, and trustworthy. Someone Tavi will be excited to see and feel safe with. So far, he’s been cared for by his grandparents and is used to being with loving, familiar adults.

A bit about us:
We’re a small family of four: my husband and I, our sweet 1-year-old Tavi, and Benji, our gentle and friendly 7-year-old Golden Retriever. We live in Mickleham and both my husband and I work from home. We follow a gentle parenting approach and are inspired by Montessori principles. We aim to give Tavi the freedom to explore, learn, and grow at his own pace in a calm and supportive environment.

We’re really excited to welcome the right person into our lives and look forward to finding someone who feels like a natural fit with our family. If this sounds like you, please get in touch and share your experience and references at chriskas2020@gmail.com.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hello I’m after a nanny just for school pick up and drop off westmeadows to Doreen and back 8am pick up and 3:30pm pick up from Doreen I’m really in need curtly working full time and spending so much on Ubers to and from school someone help!! Happy work out a salary per week

Hi, my name is Ana and I'm looking for a nanny to look after and entertain my 3-year-old daughter, Evelyn, and my 16-month-old son, Harrison, 2 days per week for 2 hours at a time so I can do some work from home. May increase to three days if all goes well. At this stage, I'm thinking Monday, Tuesday or Thursday between 2:30-4:30pm. I've set the rate at $25p/h since I'll be home and can handle toileting/nappy changes, but happy to discuss the pay for the right applicant. Experience is highly desirable, but since I'll be at home and available as needed, I'm really looking for someone who can be caring, engaging, playful, patient and proactive with my kids. The role might involve providing some snacks and some light tidy up afterwards, but on the whole, I think it's a pretty "easy" role.

We are looking for a proactive, enthusiastic person to help out with our 11yo son before and after school on Tuesday’s, Thursday’s and Friday’s. (Total 15 hours per week). His older sister (Grade 8) is home for part of the time, but is more independent and requires less supervision.
The ideal person will be patient, have a sense of humour, and can show initiative as needed. Preferably, you would also have experience with neurodiverse children, and can establish a relationship and routines that work for you and our son.
Responsibilities:
- School drop off (9am) and pick up (2 pm)
- Supervise and engage in games and activities with our son – either at home or in the community
- Prepare basic snacks

Hourly rate $30 - $40, depending on experience.

About us:
I am a single mum who works full time. I'm pretty laid back and flexible, my focus is on finding someone who can connect with my son and have fun with him while I am working.
My son is 6 years old and full of beans. He loves dinosaurs, arts and crafts, Pokemon, Avatar, science experiments, drawing and and making up imaginary games to play.

About you:
You're fun, energetic and keen to get involved in games and activities with kids. You're a good communicator, honest and not too serious.
Ideally you have a car, a working with children's check and first aid certificate (or willing to get a WWCC and First Aid Cert in the first month).

About the job:
Minimum 2 afternoons per week, 3.15pm - 5.30pm which includes pick up from school, dinner and bedtime routine.
Some weeks may be 3 days or may be later than 5.30pm. I will always provide notice the week before of days/hours required and will work with you to be flexible to your needs as well, whether that be studying, holidays or other jobs you might have.
If for whatever reason I need to cancel the day of, I'll still pay you for 2 hours to cover the late cancellation.
It would be great if you can also help out occasionally on school holidays or weekends, but it's not a deal breaker.

My name is Danielle and I am happily married to husband Brent. We have two sons. One 3 year old Noah and a 1 year old. I will be retuning to work in the coming month or so and would like a baby sitter every second Monday.

Hello! Looking for someone to hangout with our little lady on Wednesday’s! She is 19 months old and a good mix of sass and sweet. One of her parents is usually always home during the day, but you and she would have the downstairs area to yourself, while we work. Happy for you to take her out, explore or just hang here at home.

She is on one nap for a couple of hours where you can hang & relax… but would be responsible for hanging while she’s awake.

Hi, I'm looking for a part time nanny to do the school pick and afternoon care of my two kids until I finish work. This would initially be for 1 afternoon a week, with the possibility to increase after a month or so.

I have a 9 year old daughter and 6 year old son. You would pick them up from school at 3.15 and then either bring them home or take them to a class or activity. If time permits on the day, it'd be great if you could get dinner started. I'd be home by 6pm. Both kids are very easygoing and happy to entertain themselves, and they don't have any soecial needs or dietary requirements.
