Start date: around September but we are willing to be flexible for the right fit for our family. Initially the 6 month old will need care for only some of the time but will build up to full days next year. We would love someone who can ideally commit 1 year or longer.

Hello,

I am looking for a reliable and warm carer to help with my 9 year old son. He has autism but is high functioning. He is a beautiful sweet natured little boy and is in grade 3. My son is friendly and loves people and loves playing with trains, Harry Potter, titanic, boats and building lego.

My son finds attending Oosh (before and after school care at his school) overwhelming. Therefore I have received funding for someone to come Mon 730 to 9 am and 330 to 6pm. Must drive and have own car as it would involve taking him to and from school. Given he is eligible for funding the person must have an early child care qualification eg cert 3 in early childcare or currently studying it. Competitive hourly rate

What the role involves
* School drop off and pick up (will compensate for petrol)
* My son is fairly independent with getting ready and will be ready for school by the time the person arrives at 7:30 am. I usually have lunches packed but on the odd occassion it may involve finishing lunch off.
* Playing with him in the morning
* After school helping with homework
* Reminding him to have a shower (he can shower himself)

Essential criteria
* Experience with children
* Current first Aide
* Own Car
* Studying or qualifications in early child care

Desirable criteria
* Previous experience with autistic children or a willingness to learn more about how to support autistic children

This role would suit someone local who is studying (early child care) or easing back into work.

If you have any questions please reach out

Hello wonderful community and hopefully hello to our forever nanny!

We are looking for a nanny in Aspendale, for our larger than life, rambunctious boy! He is absolutely bursting with energy, excitement and lots of joy.

We would love our nanny to really become part of our family as we have very little support and miss a grandmother figure in his life. A nurturer, warm character, but equally someone who has high energy, loves to laugh and can keep up with this larger than life clown.

Min 30 hours per week, paid each week (even if worked less then 30), max 35, but days and exact hours may vary each week. A typical working week would be 2 full days 8-5:30 and one to two half days 8-1pm. We are both doctors so our schedules are a little variable week by week so would require someone flexible. Weekdays only and no evenings required.

WWCC and first aid is a must.

Starting asap, and going to February minimum, hopefully longer. As mentioned we would love an older female who is looking to adopt a family forever. For the right person we are willing to move mountains!

Kindly contact me, thank you! ☺️

Looking for experienced nanny (or nannies) to help mum with the after school hours on some of the weekdays (3:30-7:30pm but flexible on exact times) for 2 children (1.5 and 3.5 years old).

Mainly to play with the children, and help mum with the dinner/bath/bed routines on weekdays.

Potentially looking for before school sessions in the near future.

My name is Kate and I am looking for a part time nanny to look after my son. Starting in October, we would be looking for someone 2 days a week, 8am until 2pm with the opportunity to increase and also adhoc babysitting. He will be 8 months old. We also have a golden retriever who is very friendly who would also be around but needs only a few pats here and there to keep him happy. Let me know if this is of interest to you.

Thanks,

Hi there,

We’re looking for a warm and reliable person(s) to help with a bit of childcare and housework.

One parent works long hours, the other is away for 2 weeks of the month for work (FIFO), so we’re looking to help with the workload.

We have a 3.5yo son, and a 10 year old dog (whippet).

Jobs:
The idea is to help with the afternoon and evening shift: come around in the afternoon and assist with some housework (see below), walk the dog, then bring our son home from childcare, prepare dinner, some playtime with our son and put him to bed.

The housework component will depend on what needs to be done on day and can include:
Cleaning,
Dishes
Tidying up
Washing clothes, folding laundry,
Meal planning,
Cooking / meal prepping

We’ll provide a car for the childcare pickup.

Timing:
- 3 weekdays per week, flexible. We’re also happy to split this across multiple people, so don’t be afraid to get in touch if you can only do one day per week.
- 3pm - 9pm. Generally, the bedtime routine finishes at 9pm, so we’re after someone who can typically help at that time, however we’re open to discussing starting and finishing times.

We’re looking for someone who:
- Is reliable and trustworthy
- Warm, and likes working with children
- Has a working with children check certificate,
- Has a drivers licence
- Likes dogs (our dog is harmless, but excitable)
- Has initiative; can notice what needs doing without being asked

If this sounds like something that would suit you, get in touch! We’d love to hear from you. Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions!

*(It may take 3 - 5 days for us to respond to your application! Thanks!)
** I’ve put every day of the week into the profile to indicate our flexibility on the weekdays. To confirm, we are looking for 3 weekdays per week.

Hey there, we're looking for a warm, reliable sitter for our 2-year-old son in Chelsea Heights. He's non-stop, loves being outside and always on the move. The goal is to give my wife a proper break during the day. You'd be playing with and supervising him, cleaning up after him, snacks, nappy changes, lunch and the nap routine.

If there's downtime while he's sleeping, tidying his toys, the dishwasher or a load of washing is appreciated and paid at the same rate, but he always comes first. Our eldest is with us fortnightly. Friendly Cavalier King Charles Spaniel in the house. Looking for one day a week to start, with more likely if it's a good fit. Please have a current WWCC, first aid and references.

Hi, I’m a solo mum of twin 6-year-old boys based in Beaumaris. I’m looking for some regular help with after-school pick-ups from Camberwell Primary School and bringing the boys home to Beaumaris, ideally a couple of afternoons each week during the school term.

I’m looking for someone warm, relaxed and confident with kids who would enjoy getting to know the boys and becoming a regular part of their routine. They’re energetic, funny and affectionate, and speak both French and English, so French would be a huge bonus (but definitely not essential).

You’ll need your own reliable car and to be comfortable with the drive from Camberwell to Beaumaris. I can provide booster seats.

Reliability and consistency are important, as I plan my work commitments around the school pick-ups. I’m ideally looking for someone who can commit on an ongoing basis rather than just for a few weeks.

There may also be opportunities for additional babysitting or extra hours from time to time if you’re interested.

Rate is negotiable depending on experience. Please get in touch if this sounds like it might suit you — I’d love to have a chat.

We're looking for a lovely, reliable and experienced person to become a regular part of our family and help care for our 13-month-old son, Arthur. We are based in Malvern East.

We're initially looking for two regular mornings per week, around 9am-1pm with the potential to increase hours over time. Start date and days worked are flexible, and payment will be based on the applicant's experience.

Arthur is a happy, curious and active little boy who loves getting out and about, exploring and playing. We're looking for someone who enjoys spending time with toddlers and is confident looking after him independently.

The mornings might involve playing at home, going for walks or local outings, visiting the library or playground, preparing and giving him lunch and following his usual routine.

We're hoping to find someone who we can build a long-term relationship with. I'm planning to return to work next year, so there is potential for the role to grow into 2 full days per week if we're a great fit.

Ideally you'll be:
- Experienced caring for toddlers around Arthur's age
- Confident caring for him independently
- Reliable, responsible and proactive
- Happy to follow our routines and parenting style
- Comfortable taking him for walks and local activities
- First Aid/CPR certified
- In possession of a current WWCC and Police Check
- Able to provide excellent references

A car is not essential, although the ability to drive would be a bonus.

We're a relaxed and friendly family and would love to find someone who becomes a familiar and trusted person in Arthur's life.

If this sounds like you, we would love to hear a little about yourself, your childcare experience, your availability and what you're looking for in your next family.
