We are looking for a casual babysitter to care for our 2.5 year old daughter once or twice a fortnight, likely on a Friday or Saturday evening or on Saturday/Sunday afternoons.

Our daughter is happy, independent and full of energy. She loves trips to the playground, tea parties with her teddies, drawing, stories and imaginative play.

We’re based in Fitzroy North, close to the high street and Edinburgh gardens, so there’s plenty within easy walking distance.

The role would include engaging her in play, preparing or heating up a simple dinner, managing bath time if needed, and handling bedtime (stories, settling and put-down).

We’re looking for someone experienced with toddlers, calm and attentive, and ideally available on an ongoing basis. If this sounds like a good fit, we’d love to hear from you.

Self sufficient kids who need someone to care for them and run them around to sports after school three nights a week: Mon/Tues/Wed. Start asap preferred!

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 early 20’s range, in my opinion, always works best for her, as she relates better to this age group.

I am currently a single mum while living in Melbourne, and my daughter and I have recently relocated from New York. I grew up here, and am currently enrolled in university in the city. I am hoping to find someone kind, dependable, and consistent who can become an important part of our support system.

The position will begin on Thursday, February 19. It will involve getting my daughter ready for school, dropping her off at Fitzroy North Primary in the morning, and picking her up after school. This schedule must remain consistent for 12 weeks, finishing on Thursday, May 7. These days and times are essential, due to my classes, and that I anm unable to do school drop off or pickup myself on Thursdays. I would like to arrange a paid trial first to make sure it is a good fit for everyone.

Beyond this, I am also looking for someone who may be available at other times on various days during the week. This part of the role would be more flexible rather than on a fixed schedule. We can work out what suits both of us if it feels like the right fit.

Must have experience, and references that can be provided, and preferably close by to Fitzroy where we currently live.

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

Hi I am looking for a reliable babysitter for occasional
Weekends but pick up from
School

Hello!

Our family is looking for a lovely and reliable babysitter or nanny to help us out on mostly Mondays (7.30-3) and Thursdays (7.30-12ish) on a casual basis. You will be caring for our beautiful 18 month old boy who is loving and very active - he will need someone who is keen to spend lots of time at the park/outdoors. We have no family support here in Melbourne so it would be great to find somone very reliable/consistent that we can trust. During your shift, we would love someone to nutrure and play, take for walks to the park and help with a bit of tiding up in the kitchen after his meals and play area/ lounge room (relating to him only). We are a relaxed family, we enjoy nature and spending lots of time outside. We require someone that has had experience in caring for young toddlers.

Look forward to chatting :)

We are a busy professional couple with 9 year old twin daughters and a 4 year old son. We are in need of a babysitter for this Thursday evening (19th Feb) and potentially Saturday evening too.

We are also looking for help 1 day a week from 7am until 7.00pm on Fridays. This would suit someone local, looking for an opportunity to work long term with a family.

Duties include getting the children ready for school and occassionly helping with drop offs. School pick ups will coordinate with a parent. During the day, we'll also need help managing the household including laundry, groceries, packing weekend bags, running errands, preparing dinner for the family and generally staying on top of household cleanliness and organisation.
We also have a golden retriever who is very friendly and part of our family so we hope you love dogs too.

We are a family of 5, with 3 children ages 6, 11 and 15, looking for someone to replace our current after school nanny, whose new Uni schedule unfortunately now clashes with when we require help.
Parents both work full time (with some flexibility), so we are looking for some extra help in the after school hours until dinner time. Duties include: school pickup (South Melbourne) assistance with homework, transport of the 6 and 11 year old to after school activities (it is preferable that you have your own car) and very occasionally dropping or picking up the 15 year from after school activities or her own baby-sitting jobs.
Candidate must also be comfortable with a small (very friendly) 4 year old cavoodle.
Also, some very light housework and food/dinner prep may be required at times. Please reach out if you think you could be the right fit for this role :)

Hi there!
We live in Richmond, though it's more like Cremorne, and we have a baby who is 7 weeks old (as at December 21) and a son who is 3.5. I'm looking for someone to arrive early - 6am - on his daycare days (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday) and help me get him ready for daycare and then walk him up to daycare. Depending on experience with babies, I'd also like it if you can hold the baby for me while I do jobs in the house or I could take my son to daycare instead some days while you hold the baby at home. Once my son is dropped at daycare, I'm hoping you can come back to our house and do an hour or two of housework including clothes washing or dish washing. The morning job would be about 6am - 10am.
In the evening, we're hoping someone can pick my son up from daycare, walk back to our house, and help me get dinner organised before bathing my son and prepping him for bed. The evening would be about 5pm - 7:30pm.
If interested, we could meet at our house and have a chat. Police check, working with children's check and first aid essential. Thank you! Alexis
