We're a family of four and looking for someone to do school pick-ups on a Monday and Tuesday (3:00pm - 6:00pm). The school is walking distance from our house so a car isn't necessary but preferable.

Great kids who are easy to look after and love playing all sorts of games.

Nos deux enfants, Isidore (7 ans) et Artémis (4 ans) sont des enfants australiens bilingues. Ce sont des enfants assez sages qui adorent lire, dessiner, et qui regardent très peu les écrans. Ils ont fait 6 mois d’école en France en 2024, et nous habitons actuellement à Fitzroy.

Nous cherchons une babysitteuse française ou francophone qui peut aider les enfants à continuer de parler et lire en français. Ça serait idéale pour quelqu’un qui aime les langages et les livres.

On cherche quelqu’un qui peut garder les enfants au moins une fin d’après-midi et soir par semaine, et qui vas rester à Melbourne au moins quelques mois. La journée peut être flexible et peut changer de semaine en semaine.

Merci et n’hésitez pas à nous contacter par la messagerie ici
