Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in St Kilda East VIC

Looking for someone for a Term 4 start, 3-7pm.

Two gorgeous kids (10 & 13). Includes school pick up at 3:30pm and then sports pick up later in the afternoon at variable locations - usually Glen Iris. After sports pick up it would be driving home and preparing an easy dinner for the kids.

Own car preferable (will pay the relevant and calculated ATO petrol rates).

Our wonderful nanny is going overseas.
You'll be looking after our 13 month old baby girl. She's the sweetest little thing – so happy, cheeky and affectionate.
Hours are 8am - 1pm.
We also need help around the house – nothing crazy, just washing, tidying, dishes, meal prep.
Our two older kids will often be here for ~1 hour before kinder. They're pretty independent but love to chat.

Hi! We’re looking for a warm, reliable and proactive family helper / babysitter to support us with our almost one-year-old daughter, Sama, as well as some light household tasks.

Sama is a happy, curious and social little girl who loves books, music, walks and exploring. I’ll often be at home with her, so some days I may need help caring for and playing with Sama, and on other days I may be with Sama while you help us get on top of things around the house.

Support may include:

- Playing with Sama and keeping her engaged
- Taking her for a walk or helping with meals/snacks
- Light tidying and resetting living spaces
- Folding laundry
- Loading/unloading the dishwasher
- Simple meal prep
- Keeping Sama’s play and eating areas organised
- Other light household tasks as needed

We’re not looking for heavy cleaning, but rather someone who naturally sees what needs doing and is happy to help make family life run a little more smoothly.

Experience with babies/toddlers is important, and we’d love someone gentle, dependable and comfortable becoming a familiar part of Sama’s routine. References would be appreciated, and first aid/CPR would be a bonus.

We’re flexible on days and hours initially and more interested in finding the right person for an ongoing arrangement.

Please message me with a little about yourself, your experience, availability and hourly rate. 😊
