Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Richmond VIC

I'm looking for a nanny in or around SOUTH YARRA to take twin infants to childcare 4 days weekly (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday): You will need to change, feed, and take them to childcare 5 minutes away, which takes less than 1 hour, between 7-9am in the morning, and on also to collect them from childcare in the evening for 2 hours (6-8pm), and wash/change/feed them before bedtime. In addition, 6 hours during the day on Saturday or Sunday (e.g., 12-6pm).
You should have experience caring for infants; be friendly, warm, and nurturing; understand infants' needs; have good command of English; and perform light house duties and cooking basic food for the kids.
Given nannies conflicting schedules, the job is likely to be divided amongst 2 nannies, each doing 2 days (morning and evening) and one day on the weekend.
Please contact me to discuss.
Thanks,
Ilan

Hi, our daughter is 2.5 years old and we now require an energetic, caring and extroverted nanny on Wed/Thurs/Fri hours during the week. Its very important to be talkative and playful as she feels more comfortable with such personalities. We prefer a good history of nannying alongside having first aid certificate, police check, working with children check and references. We are based in Kew and will, of course, take the time to explain and be around you to help build an easy going routine and comfort between our daughter and you.
Rate - $30 per hour. Appreciate your time, thank you.

Hello! We are looking for a Nanny to join our family for approx. 3 days per week to look after our 6 month old daughter Violet and 4 year old daughter Charlotte. Our current nanny is finishing in June and therefore we are looking for someone to start as soon as possible to enable a smooth handover. Our daughter Violet has some special needs requiring physio support so we are ideally looking for someone really passionate about babies and helping with their development. The days we are looking for support are Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from approx. 7:30am - 6:30pm/7pm. Our 4 year old daughter Charlotte will be in Kinder on these days and we are hoping to find someone who is happy to do drop off and pick up on these days and care for our 6 month old while Charlotte is in Kinder and then both children together in the afternoon/evening. We are looking for someone who loves children, is creative and who can build a great relationship with both our girls. As my husband and I both work fairly long hours we are hoping to find someone who is also happy to help out with light household duties and cleaning e.g. dishes, laundry, grocery shopping, cooking for Violet and Charlotte etc and also who may be able to cook a couple of dinners per week or help with meal prep. If this sounds like a job that might fit what you're looking for, please message me to connect :)

We are a busy professional family based in Kooyong looking for a caring, reliable and energetic nanny to help with our three lovely children — 9-year-old twin boys and a 3-year-old girl.

Our much-loved long-term nanny is sadly moving on after finishing university and starting her career in her chosen field, so we are looking for someone new to become part of our family.

The role will primarily involve:

* School and kinder drop-offs and pick-ups
* Caring for our 3-year-old on Wednesdays
* Taking children to after-school activities
* Helping keep the day running smoothly

Regular hours required:

* Tuesdays & Thursdays: school/kinder drop-offs and pick-ups
* Wednesdays: full day

We live in Kooyong, with school in Hawthorn and kinder in Armadale — all within a small radius (under 3km). While driving distances are minimal, a driver’s licence is essential.

We would highly value someone with flexibility for:

* Longer hours during school holidays
* The occasional Monday

We are open-minded about how the role could work and would happily consider:

* Splitting the role across multiple people
* Different employment arrangements
* Expanding the position into a broader home manager role for the right person

Pay is $35–40 per hour, negotiable depending on experience and responsibilities.

I am currently on leave, so the role is not urgently needing to be filled, and we can be flexible with a start date from July onwards for the right person.

We are looking for someone warm, organised and dependable who enjoys being around children and becoming part of family life. If this sounds like a good fit, we would love to hear from you!

Looking for a lovely human to care for my 4.5month old daughter on Mondays 3-9:30pm, Tuesdays 2:45pm-10:30pm and Saturdays 10:15-6:30pm during the school term. Possible Wednesday afternoon for two hours but still working that out. Some Sunday work if you're willing and some school holiday hours possible too, tho not essential to employment. Ideally would love one person for all days but open to job sharing if that's not possible. Looking to use the 'in home care' program so I can use my child care subsidy so candidate needs Early Childhood Education Qualifications (min cert 3) or be enrolled studying towards it. This is a non negotiable so if you do not have that unfortunately I cannot hire you. Candidate must have WWCC, police check and first aid training. Experience with babies a plus. Pay variable pending on experience and qualifications.

My beautiful 4.5month old girl is very chilled and happy. She loves having a chat, singing songs/music, walks in nature, reading books and being with people. She is an excellent night sleeper so evenings would be fairly relaxed for you. I am an ex performer turned dance teacher. I love to travel, art, theatre, spend time at the beach and in nature. I'm easy going and whilst my hours are fairly fixed, I have a great village that I can ask for help when needed so I am happy to work with you as best I can. In dream land we would love a nanny for the long term.

Looking to start ASAP! Feel free to get in touch with me if you have any questions.
