Hi there,
We are looking for a babysitter for after-school pickups and dinner prep (3:30-6:30) one day a week (Thursday) (with occasional extra days as our interstate work travel requires). We live in Flemington, and the kids (boy, 8, girl, 11) go to KPS. Commencing after school holidays, so 10th October.
Please send me a message if interested, and we can have a chat about it.
we are looking for a long-term Nanny (ideally German speaking but not essential) for our 2 year old daughter on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8.30 - 12.30am. Potentially also Mondays and Fridays from 8.30-17.00pm.
We are in Brunswick West (Brunswick Rd.) located.
Looking for someone who is responsible, caring and loves to play with children. Paying cash.
If this sounds suitable for you, I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
My seven year old son and five year old daughter are the lights of my life and they spend near 50/50 time between their mom and myself.
Our babysitter for the last four years or so is now going to be a full-time teacher and we're so proud of her but that means we need to start looking. She will also be happy to get whomever works with us up to speed.
We are looking for someone to mind our 6 month old baby boy for 5 hours per fortnight plus additional casual babysitting. The day of the week is flexible however, Tuesday is the preference. We are located in the Westgarth area of Northcote. We would like someone who has specific experience in caring for young babies.
Hi there, we are a family of four, with two girls aged 9 and 6. We are looking for a babysitter to do school pick up on a Wednesday, take the girls to circus class, bring them home and spend time with them until we return home from work. Our girls are fun, energetic and creative, and are looking forward to spending time with a new babysitter!
Hello lovely nannies!
Our current nanny is off on a new adventure so we are now looking for a new fun, loving and energetic nanny to care for our two kids. We are a friendly outgoing family of four and we both work in the Melbourne CBD. We love eating, heading out to the park, riding bikes and making each other laugh!
Our almost 10yo daughter is creative and crafty, while our 7yo son is active and loves a laugh. Both kids adore books and reading and really get into imaginative play.
We need help for four afternoons a week (Tuesday to Friday).
Proposed hours are 1.30pm to 6.30pm (we are flexible with start time, depending on your availability) to allow time to prepare the evening meal (happy for you to eat with the kids or take some home) and carry out some light household duties prior to the after-school pick-up. (The school is a short stroll away).
Although the primary focus is to care for and stimulate our kids, duties will include food preparation (afternoon tea, cooking a simple dinner for the family), supervision of homework, showers and some light housework (e.g., folding laundry, general tidying and a small amount of vacuuming).
Hi, I am looking for a babysitter for my two daughters aged 8 and 12. I will need fortnightly Monday school pickup from Penders Grove PS, then back to our house in Thornbury. There may be an after school activity to take them to as well. I may need other school pickups at times and the odd night time if I am going out.
Our daughter turned one in August and I'm returning to work. We're looking for a nanny experienced in the care of children around her age from Mondays through Thursdays, from around 8:45am-4:45pm. The start date is somewhat flexible. We'd be ready to employ someone as soon as we find a good fit for our family. Our daughter is a very social baby and has done well with other caregivers.
We also have a four year old son who will be at kinder / daycare during the day but may be home occasionally if unwell. In that case, we will be around to help care for him.
We are a professional couple working from home part time and it's likely one of us will be around most days working in our home office. We’ve found that our baby adapts quickly if we need to come into the common room, but we’ll try to stay out of your way at first so you can bond.
Our parenting style is pretty standard, tracking along current child development guidelines, though it probably most resembles the approach promoted by Big Little Feelings / Laura Markham / Becky Kennedy (and an endless well of parenting influencers - oh dear). At a super high level it's just about validating emotions and holding boundaries. We're always open to learning about new or different ways of doing things. We are happy to problem solve any issues that arise with you.
We're looking for someone who:
- has experience caring for babies around her age
- knows what to do in case of emergency and has basic first aid training
- communicates well with us
- is patient and empathetic
- seeks to understand our child, her personality, and needs
- can commit to work with us for at least a year
- can work Mondays through Thursdays, from about 8:45am - 4:45pm.
A plus if you're open to occasional evening or weekend babysitting.
We'd like you to:
- prepare her snacks and lunch and tidy up after her throughout the day
- settle her for naps
- take her on walks and outings
- play and support her growth and learning
- do light housework such as the baby's laundry and cleaning up after meals
Compensation is negotiable based on qualifications and experience.

Hi All,
I'm a parent of a young boy, who is 7.5 years old.
I work casual hours, weeknights and weekends, any time during the day (but never overnights).
I'm seeking a Nanny / Mothers help that is qualified in Early Education or studying towards.
Payment is via an agency so I get the government subsidy. This is not a cash in hand role.
A Nanny that is engaging and loves working with kids.
My boy is super easy to look after but is a little fussy when it comes to eating, so someone that is confident in the kitchen that knows a little more than the basics would be ideal. I provide all meals most of the time but your input on occasion would be welcomed.
My work is adhoc, you will be one of a few nannies, so no pressure to always be available.
Please get in touch if you wish to chat further :)
Looking for a house keeper and mother's helper for 3-7pm, two nights a week (alternating Mon+Tues one week and Weds+Thurs the other week, on a fortnightly roster.)
You’ll arrive before I get home and do some cleaning and housework (regular tasks would include changing sheets, laundry management, cleaning the bathroom and kitchen, and pre-making meals for the week) and then once we arrive home around 5, switch gears and be on deck to help with the dinner, bath, books, bedtime routine for two gorgeous girls aged 3 and nearly 5. I will be home, also doing kid wrangling, getting other housework sorted, and occasionally taking work calls. In 2025 it's likely the role would also include picking up the 5 year old from school around the corner and walking home with her.
Must be vaccinated and a non-smoker with a WWCC; references from other parents also would be great.
The girls are joyful and enthusiastic and fun, and I’m looking for someone with that same warm, positive energy to join us in the evenings. You’re a great team player and happy to muck in to get whatever needs to be done, sorted out.
If this sounds like you, please reach out! I’d love to chat to you.

Hi There, my name is Nicola, and we are looking for a casual babysitter for our three year old son, William.
We are located in South Yarra. We are looking for someone to help out on weekends, or weeknights if we have something on. Our son is an outgoing, but sometimes shy when he first meets you. So looking for someone who can build a great relationship with him, and make him feel comfortable. He attends daycare 5 days a week, so he is used to meeting a wide range of people, and loves playing outdoors and playing with his toys!
My husband and I are both not from Melbourne, so unfortunately, we dont have any family available to help us out on a regular basis.
We look forward to hearing from you! Thanks, Nicola and Sam!
My family relocated to Melbourne from San Francisco a few months ago. We live in Kew with our 3 children aged 6, 4 and nearly 2; our daughter goes to Camberwell Primary while the other two do a mix of kinder (Hawthorn East) + childcare (Kew).
I am looking for someone who could help weekday afternoons from around 2-6pm - helping with school pick-ups and drop-offs to after-school activities for the oldest 2. To start, we'd need help 2 days a week - Tue / Wed. Starting in Jan 2025, we'd look to increase to 4 days a week - Mon-Wed + Fri.
During school holidays or weeks when one parent is traveling for work, we may also ask for more hours - as possible.
Ideally, we would love to find someone who is:
* Mature and experienced - bringing confidence, comfort and good judgment around small kids - able to bring fun and playfulness yet maintain firm boundaries
* Warm and kind - creating strong positive attachments with our kids
* Engaged and development oriented - thoughtful about exposing the kids to activities and experiences that will help them learn and grow - i.e., on the floor talking and playing vs looking at phones + screens
*Trustworthy, responsible and prompt - shows up when and where promised - always with honesty and integrity
*Respectful - listens to and supports our intentions as parents - takes care to leave the space better than you found it
* Has a drivers license, car and strong driving record - and willing and able to drive 2 kids
Bonus points would be someone who:
* Has flexibility for additional hours as needed (esp. during school holidays)
* Speaks French
Will pay a competitive rate for the right fit.
Please message me with CV and references if interested.
