Hi,

My wife and I are looking for a caring, reliable nanny to look after our two young children while we work from home.

We wan to start in the week commencing 3 August, with regular hours on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday from approximately 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.

A little about our family:

- Our daughter is 3 years old and attends childcare on some days. She is a bubbly, curious little girl who loves helping out and enjoys creative play.
- Our son is 1 year old and is full of smiles. He's crawling, loves exploring his surroundings, and is at a fun stage of discovering everything around him.

We're looking for someone who enjoys engaging with young children through play, reading, outdoor time, arts and crafts, and other age-appropriate activities. We'd love to minimise screen time, so keeping them entertained without relying on TV or tablets is important to us. We're more than happy to provide or purchase toys, books, or learning materials that you think would help keep them engaged and support their development.

The role would also include light household duties related to the children, such as tidying up toys after playtime, cleaning up after meals, and helping keep the common areas neat throughout the day.

As both my wife and I work from home, there will always be at least one of us nearby if you need any assistance or have any questions.

If you're interested, we'd love to hear from you. When you reply, could you please let us know:

- Your hourly rate.
- Your availability if you want to start before 3rd August.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Thanks,

Qiao

Hello wonderful Nannies

We are looking for help 35 hours per week for our three beautiful children on a long-term basis . The ideal candidate is warm, caring and can drive. We have had two long-term au pairs previously and love them both very much. I have great previous references!

Some of the hours will be with the children (20 hours per week) and some hours will be for helping around the house Eg. Tidying, Washing, Cooking dinner, running errands etc.).

We have just relocated back to Australia after spending two years living abroad, so the role will start immediately. Occasionally, both my husband and I travel for work, so the perfect candidate would be willing to ramp up if needed for 3/4 days 4-5 times a year. We are an extremely loyal and loving family, and you will instantly become part of ‘our family’

I can’t wait to hear from you!

3 beautiful girls aged 3, 5 and 9 years. Attend local schools/child care. Will need license and own car. Local school is walking distance on a nice day. Meal prep, basic housework, cleaning after kids etc. won’t be all 3 kids at a time, will rotate depending on needs of older child’s extra curricular activities (playing rep sport and squad swimming). We would love to hear from you… looking for mostly after school care including school (bbps) kinder pick ups (Firbank) and dinner prep, bath, light housework/cleaning up after kids!

Hi, we're the Mathews.

We're a family of three, plus two friendly dogs. We're looking for a nanny to care for our 2-year-old daughter every second Friday from 7:00 am to 12:00 pm. We're based in Armadale.

Our daughter loves going to the park, painting, and helping around the house. We recently had a wonderful nanny, but her university schedule changed. We're now looking for someone who would like to become a more permanent part of our family's routine.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Nanny 5 days per week, roughly 8 hours per day between the hours of 8am and 5pm. Looking after a 16 month old boy in our home; structured play indoor and outdoor, basic snack and meal preparation, nap time and routine, changing nappies, and general wellbeing.

Nanny wanted — Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday, 9am–5pm — starting early February 2027.

We’re a young family in Brighton looking for a warm, reliable nanny to join us three days a week from the start of February.

You’d mainly be caring for our one-year-old — a happy, easygoing little one who’s a genuine delight to be around. Our three-year-old may also be home one day (subject to daycare availability), so at times it’d be both of them together.

These three days line up with the days one of us works part-time; the other works full-time. On most of them, one of us will be home working from home — so there’s a hand nearby if it’s ever truly needed.

Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. There may be some flexibility for the right person.

Rate: $30 (happy to pay cash)

Driving: Licence required but not expected to pick up any kids from daycare etc

If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear a bit about you and have a chat. Thanks!
