Hi, we're a young couple with a 6 month old who will be starting Daycare in May. We both work and have to leave for our jobs early in the morning. Looking for someone just for an hour in the mornings to look after our baby and walk her yo daycare which is just down the road ~ 8 min walk. Daycare starts at 7.30am. So will need help from 6.30-7.30am. 1 hr x 3 days a week. Prefer that she is walked to daycare and not driven.
I’m looking for someone to join my team as a support worker for a beautiful 10 year old boy with Norries Disease who is blind and has autism and an intellectual disability. Mainly looking for Sundays 3pm-8pm and school holidays with the possibility of increasing to a week night in the future as well. All training and ongoing support is provided by me so no need for prior experience but this is highly regarded. You would need to have a passion for working with children and learning new skills as well as the ability to stay calm when child is dysregulated and adapt to ongoing training and feedback. Someone who is either working in or aspiring to work in behaviour support, occupational therapy, speech therapy or physio therapy would be perfect for this role as we work closely with these therapies and integrate goals into what we do with the children on a daily basis. Please note a drivers licence and access to a car is essential for the role. We are looking for someone who can make a long term commitment of at last 1 year and the role requires regular weekly work with the child to be able to work with him on the school holidays so I am not able to accept applicants who are looking for temporary or solely school holiday work. Thank you!
I'm a shift worker and my work roster changes from month to month. I work a 24/7 rotating roster that includes overnights and weekends. I need someone reliable and flexible that is available for a variety of times fortnightly, drop off/pickup at daycare and overnights. I work the occasional overnight Friday and/or Saturday nights from 8pm till 5am and 10pm till 7am.
Open to au pair.
Happy to discuss hourly rates or arrangements for overnights.
Hi We live in Carnegie and have two daughters, aged 1 and 5.

We also need someone comfortable with light housework and cleaning. If you are interested, could you please share your availability, hourly rate, and email address so we can arrange an online meeting first? Thanks!

Hello - we are a family of 5 located in Ashburton. We have three beautiful children - 9 y/o girl, 8 y/o boy and a 6 y/o boy - and are looking for a nanny to help with before and after school care on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We would also love to have someone who can stay a few hours while the children are at school to help with general household tasks related to the kids (ie - meal prep, laundry, baking of school snacks, etc).
Specific timing would be 7:15 am to 9:15 am and then from 3 pm to 6 pm. The additional hours to cover general tasks is flexible and we're happy to make the timing suit your schedule.
In the mornings (7:15 - 9:15 am) we are specifically looking for someone to assist with getting the kids ready for school and assist in drop off. There may be time for meal prep or after school snack prep. We are less than a 5 min walk to school so no driving required.
The afternoons (3 pm - 6 pm) will include gathering after-school snacks, assisting in school pick-up (3:30 pm), and taking the kids to activities. We will provide the car for transport and most activities are about a 10 min drive from our home. When home from activities we'll need help getting them showered and some dinner prep.
We'd love to hear from you if this is something that is of interest.
We are a family of four, looking for an experienced infant nanny for TWO weekdays (can be flexible which days) per week of care for our baby daughter. She will be approximately six months old at the time of commencement in mid May 2025 - to support mother's return to work. Our eldest daughter is five years old and attends a local primary school - pick up from school by nanny not essential but would be helpful to have as a back up. We also have an eight year old greyhound who is very placid and sleeps all day.
Hours are also somewhat flexible but need to cover at least between 8:15am and 5pm on both days. We are ideally looking for someone who can commit to the position for at least 12 months.
We would also like to ensure that there can be a 1-2 week period of shadowing prior to mother's return to work on 26th of May.
Up-to-date first aid qualifications, WWCC, non-smoker and driver's license are a must for us.
We look forward to hearing from you!
We're looking for our next Mary Poppins to join our family and care for our cutie pies while I'm working mostly from home. We're open to full or part time nannies so if you're available for part or all of the week send us a message!
Here's our situation:
- McKinnon/Bentleigh/Ormond area (3204)
- We’re looking for a permanent nanny who’ll click with our whole family. Hours would mostly be within 9-5, Mon-Fri
- 3 littlies: 4yo girl, 3yo girl and 1yo boy - we're biased but we think they're hilarious and cute little monsters
- No weekends or after hours work required
Here are the details (i.e. I’m slightly OCD) so if you’re half a chance so far, please read on.
Us:
We're a family with 3 kids - a 4 1/2yo girl who's at kinder 2 days a week (Mon & Wed), a 3yo girl, and 1 1/2yo boy.
- The girls are quite into their arts and crafts, currently obsessed with playing mums & dads, and love dress ups, and our little man is a super chilled toddler who fits into what we’re up to and is starting to have his own adorable personality, loves magnetic tiles, his footy, throwing a ball and loves dancing.
- The kids all love all the crafts, painting, play dough, sensory activities, bike rides, pram walks, picnics, playground time… so much playground time…, collecting flowers, leaves, sticks (that all stay outside), boardgames, puzzles, and heaps of other activities we have ready to go at home.
- We also have two dogs - small and medium fluff balls with big personalities who love pats.
- Dad works full time usually at the office, I work mostly from home, very occasionally go to the office meaning I'll very much be present while you’re here, and therefore am available for quick help, questions, etc. but I do need to actually work.
Our Mary Poppins:
- Has the standard checks: WWCC, Police Check, First Aid, reliable transport to our home, a licence and comfortable driving a big car to take kids to activities (swimming/ballet/kinder).
- Is comfortable with dogs: as mentioned we have 2 dogs who are very much a part of and involved with the family and will be all over you (they’re annoyingly friendly but zero danger).
- Is responsible, punctual and professional, experienced, easy going, and clean (there's that OCD) who can be present with them and can get the kids comfortable with you quickly. Can also be generally helpful to me and hands on with stuff like unpacking shopping, folding/putting away laundry etc.
- Is competent in the kitchen and able to help with light cleaning mostly after the kids (usually organising their space or making sure the place is back to normal). You'll need to prep lunches and a couple of small snacks and work around a nap for either one or 2 of them during the day, which is usually pretty consistent.
- Is really great at kids baths. Especially getting them out of it, moisturised and hair dried and done up!
- Can entertain the kids (no TV plonking); walks, going out to the park, playground, babycino cafe trips, ride/scooter, local community events, inside games, loves reading, playing, painting, crafting, making forts etc. etc.
- Can educate them - the older ones especially are at the stage where they're learning to read/write/count/learn days etc, we'd very much like to see them continue to progress with this.
- Be ok with them being sick. Given they don't go to childcare, they don't get as sick as many kids who do, but still be prepared for the occasional snotty nose or three.
- Generally be awesome with them/don’t turn out to be a psycho kidnapper.
Rate is negotiable based on experience, and to just to be upfront, we'd likely preference somebody a little more experienced at this stage. We've been through a few nannies and can now definitely tell when someone clicks with our family.
I’ve deliberately been pretty detailed so that if our unicorn nanny is reading and nodding along to all points so far, it’s probably a good sign. So if you’re interested please comment with an age/experience/expected rate, and we’ll message suitable candidates for more detail.
Thanks for playing along, looking forward to hearing from our future Mary Poppins.

My name is Tracy and I have two boys aged 1 and 3. I am returning to work shortly and am looking for help caring for my youngest son between 8 and 4 pm from Monday an d Tuesday .
If you have availability I would love to hear from you
We are looking for a nanny for one day a week from around the 1st of April, for our son Zayn. He is currently 10.5 months old and will be close to one by then.
We are first time parents that are navigating our return to work and planning on sending our son to day care for three days a week, but looking to balance that out with a day at home with a Nanny (either Monday or Thursday). It will be a full day of work (7-9 hours) which will involve a typical routine for a 1 year old - meals, playtime, naps, and a milk feed or two.
In terms of other info, we live in Highett and have a groodle named Alfie. He is a really good dog and mostly tends to keep to himself. We won’t have a lot of work around the house, and are open to being flexible on that.
Also, it would be ideal for us to find someone that can take this on for atleast 6 months as we are looking for something more long term to allow Zayn to adjust into a routine and be comfortable with a carer.
Our son is an energetic cheeky little bub that loves to play and is pretty quick to warm up to new people. If this job is of interest to you, please reach out and we would be happy to share more information.
I am looking for a reliable casual carer who can occasionally pick my 3 children up from school or after school care. There will be some evenings where they will need to be taken to activities and some cooking required occasionally.
We have a regular Nanny on Monday afternoons and we're on the look out for a casual Nanny who is willing to fill in when they are unavailable and for casual babysitting. Timing is typically Monday afternoons 12.45pm - 5.45pm
The role would include caring for our two girls (2 and nearly 4), cooking dinner, tidying kids toys, folding washing occasionally, and getting the girls ready for bed.
The girls love reading, singing, dancing, cooking, arts and crafts and spending time outside. We have several parks locally, a library not far away and plenty of cafe's for baby cinos!
$30-$35/hour depending on experience and qualifications.
If this sounds like a good match for you, please reach out for a chat! Look forward to hearing from you!
Hello! We are a family of three and would like to find someone to look after our almost two year old Luna, two times a week preferably in the mornings from 8am until she goes to bed around 12pm on Mondays and Thursdays. These days are flexible slightly if someone is the right fit and these days don’t suit. We would also like Luna’s nanny to be free occasionally on either a Saturday or Sunday, once every 6 weeks.
Luna loves books, walking, running, playing at the park, using her bike and scooter, drawing, stickers, puzzles, blocks, and engaging with other kids. She is a delight to look after and has a tonne of personality. Luna’s snacks and meals will be all prepared for her and ready in the fridge.
We are seeking an experienced, reliable, and nurturing nanny to care for our sweet 6-month-old baby boy. This is a permanent part-time position, offering 26–28 hours per week across three and a half days. *Must be available for Monday and Tuesday*
Key responsibilities include attentive care of our child and maintaining a clean and tidy environment in the areas he uses. We are a supportive, caring family looking for someone who is genuinely passionate about working with young children and who will become a valued and trusted part of our household.
How are you ?!
I am looking for a babysitter who can really engage with my kids who are 5 and 8.
They have vastly different personalities so you need to be able to speak with them and engage with them differently , creatively and compassionately and sometimes be a mediator ! It will really come down to how well you can interact with them and really how much they gravitate towards you.
Everything else that I would require is the standard police check , wwc , driving , responsibility and safety etc etc !
At the moment it is casual work moving into the holidays and then it’ll be regular !
Look forward to chatting if you’re free, available and willing to!
Our daughter is 7 years old and a bit of a legend. She loves dinosaurs, imaginary games, art and soccer. She’s funny, energetic, a gorgeous person… and yes, we may be her biggest fan.
We are looking for a babysitter/nanny to help with between two and four days pick up after school. We’d also love some help when the school holidays roll around. Our daughter goes to school in Kew, and we have a lovely home in Surrey Hills. Some days she has activities like tennis at the local tennis club, and other days we’re happy for you to come home together and explore (along with the odd bit of homework).
We want to partner with someone who shares our daughter's passions and energy. We leave the tv off and world around us turned up. We welcome exposure to things like science experiments, museums and galleries, particularly on the holidays.
You’ll need a car to pick her up too.
We would like to find someone who can help for at least a few years so we can form a partnership together.
