* After school helping with homework
* Reminding him to have a shower (he can shower himself)
* I do not expect any housework

Hello,

I (Candice) am looking for someone reliable and trustworthy to work every Thursday (be available all day as time does slightly change) and every second Sunday (12-5pm) and there may be extra days to fill in for other carers or to look after my 14y old son at night. Someone who can commit as this is a long-term position (not just school holidays).

I have 2 kids,17g and 14b. The job entails cooking meals, running errands, driving kids to friend's places and light housework. I am looking for someone to start immediately as I need the support, I have brain cancer which causes fatigue/memory issues.

We are looking for someone patient, nurturing and dependable. You must have a valid driver’s license and your own car. If this is something that you think would fit, please contact us. Also, an ABN is required.

Thank you!

I'm looking for a reliable and caring person to help with my two children, aged 7 and 9.

I'm currently seeking someone to pick them up from Glen Iris Primary School at 3:15 pm on Tuesdays, drive them home, and stay with them until I return from work at around 7:00 pm.

During that time, I'd like someone to supervise them while they complete their homework, prepare a light afternoon snack (such as sliced fruit), and generally keep them company and engaged until I get home.

Initially, I'm looking for help on Tuesdays only, but there may be an opportunity to expand this to additional afternoons in the future, and potentially assist with morning school drop-offs as well.

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

We are specifically looking for a passionate and patient student from University, preferably majoring in Occupational Therapy (OT) or Education (Special Education/Inclusion focus).
Since his executive functioning skills are still developing, he does not just need a traditional tutor who sits and checks homework. He needs someone who understands neurodiversity and is familiar with dynamic teaching strategies like "scaffolding" (breaking down tasks into smaller, manageable steps) to help him build independence without feeling overwhelmed.

Hi,

I'm looking for someone to do school drop offs and pick ups mid July to August for my 2 boys (Moorabbin to Highett) with view to extend if it suits and more flexibility with days/times for the right person beyond August.

Currently I need Wednesday mornings and afternoons and Thursday mornings and afternoons. I leave at 7.45 and the boys need to be at school at 8.30. Pick up is at 3.05 and a parent is usually home between 3.30 and 3.45 (4pm at the latest).

There is the opportunity to extend this if it suits you and long term we can definitely look up mixing days/times ie Wed pick up, Thursday both, Friday drop off, as I have some flexibility with my roster.

Please let me know either way if interested.

Cheers
