1: Reliable and willing to follow my care instructions for the baby girl (15 months now).
2: Lives in the Western suburbs of Melbourne.
3: Clean up after themselves instead of leaving a mess for an already- tired Mother when care taking of the baby.
4: Available 2-3 times a month for a 3- hour block.
5: Can help when we host Dawat for friends (we don't do it often but may need help every 3-4 months).

Nudge me if you think you are suitable.

The role:
We’re looking for a native English or Spanish speaker to provide bilingual home-based education for our two children, ages 5 and 6. They are sweet, curious, and exceptionally bright.

About Florianópolis
Known as the “Ilha da Magia” (Island of Magic), Florianópolis is the capital of Santa Catarina in southern Brazil. The island has more than 40 beaches, from calm turquoise bays to world-class surf spots. You’ll also find lagoons, sand dunes, Atlantic Forest trails, and charming fishing villages with Azorean heritage.
It consistently ranks among Brazil’s cities with the highest quality of life. It is safe by Brazilian standards and has a thriving international community of digital nomads, surfers, and expats. The food scene is fantastic, especially the oysters, which are among the best in the country. From June to November, southern right whales visit the coast.
Why a year in Brazil?
Living abroad for a year is about more than adding a line to your CV. It’s a life-changing experience. Brazil is warm, joyful, and full of life, with music, festivals, football, and a culture built around connection and hospitality. You’ll become fluent in Portuguese, form lasting friendships, and see the world, and yourself, through a new lens. Employers and universities increasingly value this kind of intercultural experience, adaptability, and independence.
Who we’re looking for
∙ Native English or Spanish speaker
∙ Experience with early childhood education (preferred)
∙ Patient, creative, responsible, and loves children
∙ Able to commit to one year

Looking for a nanny for my toddler as I work full time. Must have some childcare experience.

Help with feeding and watching him during the day.

We are a warm, busy family in South Melbourne looking for an experienced and reliable nanny to join our family and share a regular weekly roster caring for our two children, aged 2 and 5.

We have been fortunate to have wonderful, long-term relationships with our nannies and really value having people in our children’s lives who become trusted and familiar members of our family. With one of our current nannies finishing with us in December, we are starting our search now for the right people to join us longer term.

While the permanent roster will commence from December 2026, there is plenty of opportunity to start sooner. We have availability from mid Oct ongoing. This means there will be opportunities over the coming months to work with our family, get to know the children and see whether we are a good fit for each other before moving into a regular long-term arrangement.

We are looking to cover afternoon shifts across Tuesday and Wednesday and a full day Thursday

Afternoons | approximately 3:30pm–7:00pm
School/daycare pick-ups, play or activities, dinner, baths and helping with the evening routine.

Thursdays | full-day shift (approximately 7:00am–6:30pm)

There are also regular opportunities for additional casual hours, particularly evenings and weekends, and potentially opportunities to travel with our family from time to time.

The person we’re looking for:

Our priority is finding people who are genuinely interested in building a relationship with our children and becoming a trusted part of our family’s life over time.

We are looking for someone who is:

* Experienced and confident caring for toddlers and young children
* Warm, patient and genuinely engaged with children
* Calm and emotionally attuned, particularly around big feelings, boundaries and age-appropriate challenging behaviour
* Reliable and punctual
* Independent and able to take initiative without needing constant direction
* Organised, clean and respectful of our home
* Comfortable managing school/daycare drop-offs and pick-ups
* Flexible where possible, while also communicating clearly about their own availability
* Interested in a stable, long-term role with a family

A driver’s licence and confidence driving children would be highly regarded.

We place a lot of value on mutual respect, communication and reliability. We have been very lucky to have long-standing relationships with our nannies and want the people who work with us to feel valued and well looked after. In return, we are looking for the same level of care, reliability and respect for our family.
