Hi!
Our amazing nanny is moving to Sydney in June :(((
We want someone with at least 5 years' experience and who genuinely loves kids!
You'll be looking after our 9 month old baby (she's an angel) and three year old girl. Occasionally our 5 year old boy too but he's at kinder every day.
We're pretty relaxed – wanting someone experienced who genuinely loves kids, is organised, punctual, fits in with our family. Hoping for someone to stay with us long term.

My husband and I are looking for a nanny for Tuesdays and occasional Thursdays. We have a girl aged 10 and boy aged 7. They are pretty easy going. We live in Elsternwick.

We’d like someone who can collect them from school, drop-off/pick-up (car needed) from their extra-curricular activities and feed them snacks/heat up dinner.

If this sounds interesting, we look forward to speaking with you!

Hi! We are looking for an engaged and nurturing nanny for our 20-month-old son, two days per week (we are flexible on which days!).

What We’re Looking For:
Our son is very musical, bright, and observant. We are looking for someone who is warm, nurturing, and who genuinely loves being actively engaged with toddlers - helping them discover and learn about the world through play.

Someone who notices what he’s interested in (whether it’s letters, music, or figuring out how things work) and provides opportunities to keep his brain busy.

Someone comfortable navigating the big emotions of toddlerhood with patience and a calm presence.

We value a phone-free environment where the focus is on meaningful interaction, safety, and connection.

Hi everyone, we’re a friendly and easy going family looking for an experienced, friendly and reliable nanny to help us care for our 18 month old son while our regular nanny is away from late June to early August. The dates are 29 June-7 August and hours are 10am-6:00pm Tuesdays, and 7:30-5:30pm Wednesdays and Fridays. We’re based in Armadale and have one 18 month old son and a very friendly golden retriever, so would love to find someone who has experience with toddlers and is comfortable with dogs.

On Tuesdays, our son is as daycare so the role is helping with some light household stuff (laundry, grocery shopping etc) before picking him up around 3:00 pm. On Wednesdays and Fridays he’ll be with you all day, and I mostly work from home on those days so am also around.

If you’re interested, able to commit to the full period and can provide references I’d love to hear from you.

Hi, babysitters! I am looking for someone to work with our family on a weekly, part-time basis from Monday through Thursday afternoons/evenings at our home in South Yarra, near Hawksburn village. One-off babysitting help on the weekend would also be great as well, if you're open to it, if we have something on occasionally in the evenings.

My husband and I both work during the week, usually with at least one of us working from home, and we're seeking some assistance with entertaining the kids when they get home from school with activities like drawing, reading, doing puzzles, cooking/preparing dinner, kicking a ball in the backyard, playing at one of the nearby playgrounds... really anything except sitting them in front of the TV!

The kids usually eat dinner around 6pm, so when they sit down to eat we'd appreciate your help getting their bath ready and then cleaning up dinner once they're done (we will give them their bath and put them to bed). Very rarely would you be alone with the children, so we're happy to help as needed while we finish up work.

We have three children: a 6 year old boy, 4 year old girl and 2 year old boy. All three are at school/kinder during the day and finish up at different times in the afternoon, so during the afternoons you'd spend with us it would range from looking after 0 kids (when we're picking them up, and would appreciate your help with housework like tidying their bedrooms, folding laundry, preparing dinner, etc), to 1 kid, 2 kids or 3 kids max (for about an hour or so when they're all back from school).

The total weekly hours that we need are around 13, across the following schedule:

Monday: 4pm-7pm
Tuesday: 4pm-7pm
Wednesday: 3pm-7pm
Thursday: 4pm-7pm

It would be great if this could be completed by one babysitter, but we are also open to splitting it across two people on different days if that aligns better with the schedules for the right person.

Ideally, the right person for our family will be someone who is kind, warm and caring. Our kids are pretty easy going but of course, try to push the limits! We'd appreciate someone who is creative and can engage them in creative pursuits - they love everything with paint, play-doh, and anything tactile!

Any other questions - don't hesitate to reach out! Excited to welcome you to our family :)

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.
Please contact me to discuss.
