Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Parkville VIC

We are looking for someone who is reliable, fun and kind to do school pick up and drop off to extra curricular activities for our almost 9 yo girl. Our girl is quite independent and very easy to hang out with.

We have a cooperative and empathic 10yo who loves reading, drawing, origami and ice skating. We are looking for someone interested in school drop-offs and pick-ups +/- an occasional evening, by mutual convenience.

We are two medical professionals who are looking for someone who is punctual, diligent, honest and vaccinated. Our LO would prefer someone who draws and likes arts/crafts. We value someone who prioritises safety while modelling respect and kindness. We'd also prefer someone local and who isn't allergic to cats.
No cooking or cleaning required. No driving required.

If you don't already have a First Aid certificate, we'll be happy to cover the cost of obtaining one if you're successful applicant.

Genuine interest/inquiries only please.

We’re a fun and loving, busy family looking for a kind, reliable and organised person to help care for our dear Henry and to help us keep our household running smoothly.

Long-term, part-time nanny who is kind, organised, firm and responsible to look after my darling, sweet, social 5-year-old boy (I know all Mums think that about their children, but he really is). Every Friday Morning.

- 7am start, drop to school 10am finish. Option to extend a couple of hours if you would be interested in doing some light housekeeping chores.
- Bonus if you could be available for some adhoc babysitting in the evening/ cover additional shifts while our other babysitter is on holiday.

You would have the option to use your own car (I would provide a booster seat) or use my car. There are lots of shops / cafes / supermarket in easy walk, and we are close to bus, tram and train lines, but at the moment the school is a half-hour drive away.

Keeping a tidy and organised home is a appreciated, but we have weekly cleaners as well, so don't expect cleaning (!). By far the most important thing is keeping my boy healthy, engaged and happy.

Start period really anytime from now. If this sounds like something you can help us with please contact me!

I am looking for a caring and reliable babysitter for my 8-year-old daughter, who has travelled the world, and is very sophisticated for her age. She is also at times very strong headed. So, a babysitter in 20’s range, in my opinion, always works best for her, as she relates better to this age group.

Looking for somebody to start ASAP, which can involve picking daughter up from Fitzroy North Primary or her extracurricular classes, when she finishes and watching her during the evening. Looking for somebody to begin next week, and for afternoons/evenings concentrated from mid Oct through Nov 5th. This role is more flexible rather than on a fixed schedule.

Must have experience, and references that can be provided, and preferably close by to Fitzroy where we currently live. Pls respond with availability. Happy to arrange a paid trial first.

Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Looking for a happy, reliable, caring person to become a trusted part of our routine on a long-term basis. The main job is a simple one: on Tuesday and Sunday evenings, collect the kids (14, 9 and 7) from our home in South Yarra at 6pm sharp and drive them to their mum's place on St Kilda Road for 6:30pm. About an hour all up including your return. Some weeks it's one evening, some weeks both. You'd pop in briefly, gather the troops and go. Same person every time - the kids need to know and trust you, so we'd have you over to meet them once or twice first.

I'm looking for 1-2 nannies in or near SOUTH YARRA to take my twin infants to childcare 4 days weekly (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday). In the morning, it's quite easy - you change their nappy from the night, give them a formula bottle, and take them to childcare, which is 5 minutes away, between 7-8am in the morning, so it can take about 30-40 minutes total.
In the evening, you pick them up from childcare at 6pm, then feed (solid food)/wash/change them before going to bed at 8pm, so 2 hours total (6-8pm)
In addition, each nanny does 1 day on the weekend, for example, Saturday Or Sunday from 12-5pm (or 1-6pm).
Ideally, you should have experience caring for infants; be friendly, warm, and nurturing; understand infants' needs; have good command of English; and perform light duties, such as kids' laundry, food prep, cleaning after them.
