We are seeking a reliable, caring, and responsible babysitter to provide quality care for our children. The ideal candidate will have experience working with young children, be patient and attentive, and create a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment. Duties may include supervising play, preparing simple meals, assisting with routines, and ensuring the child's wellbeing at all times. Current First Aid and Working With Children Check qualifications are preferred. We are looking for someone trustworthy, punctual, and able to communicate effectively with both children and parents. Flexible hours may be available for the right candidate.

Pick up from school (berwick to Narre warren)

Immediate start!

We are looking for a babysitter to come to our house before school, get the kids ready and drop them off at school.

The kids are a 12 year old girl and 9 year old boy. They are used to having someone else take them to school and like to have some fun with that person if time allows. They are pretty self sufficient and could almost get the bus themselves - it's just our son gets a bit distracted when getting ready!

We are looking for someone 4-5 mornings a week during the school term, to start at 6:30am in Mitcham and finish when you drop the kids to school in Ringwood North at about 8:15am. Only household work is to make their breakfast, pack their lunch and empty the dishwasher (if we have remembered to run it!).

We pay $80 per morning. You will need your own car, driver's licence and WWC.

We would love to hear from you - we have always cherished the relationships formed with our previous babysitters.

We are a friendly family based in Glen Waverley looking for a reliable and caring babysitter to look after our two young children (aged 4 years old girl and 1 year old boy).

This is a regular weekly role on Sundays for 2–3 hours (approximately 2:00–5:00pm). Duties include supervising playtime, engaging the children in age-appropriate activities, and assisting with feeding, as well as ensuring their overall safety and comfort during the session, tidying up, and cleaning after play and eating.

We are looking for someone who is warm, patient, and experienced with young children. Ideally, you will be confident managing both a toddler and a preschooler.

Once the children become comfortable with you, there is potential for additional babysitting sessions during the week or evenings.

If you’re interested, we’d love to hear from you!

Looking for nanny to care my two boys 10 and 6.5 years old. They are quite independent and very well-behaved. As I am going to start my full time Master degree, we really need help with school pick up at 3pm, followed by sending older brother to his ballet class. School is at Warranwood, home at Nunawading and ballet school at Vermont. We prefer someone who is happy to do some simple cleaning like unstack and put dirty dishes into dish washer, put clothes into washing machine, sweeping floors etc.

Time will be from 3pm school pick up to 6pm which one of the parent will be home. Will add $15 for petrol each day. Looking for someone who is confident in driving. More days may be added eventually when I get more busy with my study and placement so we are looking for someone that we can build relationship with.

He can watch (pre approved) movies or play video games, or just play in general. We will inform you of our bed time routine so you can lay him down when he is tired.

The sitter should be able to pass a background check, CPR/first aid and references. The ideal sitter would be looking to stay on ongoing for at least a year( this is an important aspect as continunity of care is important for this age range). If interested please send CV and references.

Hi,

This is Kirti. I am looking for a carer to pickup my son from his kinder at 3pm and then my daughter from her school at 3.30pm and look after them till I come home at 5pm. The kinder and school are within working distance of each other or 1-2 minute drive. Need someone reliable on a weekly ongoing basis.

Hi Potential Nannies!

Im looking for a Nanny for my 3 beautiful girls for a few days a week starting for the next 3 months.
We are a loud and bright family in Eltham North looking for someone to help make our lives that bit easier!
The girls are aged 5, 7 and 9 and all attend school or kindergarten (on some days of the week).
We have hosted aupairs from the last few years and are having a few month gap in which we need in home care as I work full time mostly out of the home (Nurse and Midwife, but office hours!).

The care I require can be flexible for the right person, however can involve:
Getting the kids ready for the day (and can involve driving them to and from from school and kinder)
School pick ups and taking them to after school activities such as swimming and gymnastics.
Entertaining them and actively playing to their interests (they all love being crafty!) and
keeping the house running a little.
In terms of household duties they would include light trying and cleaning up after everyone. Eg. Managing their many piles of girls clothes, tidying up after the girls and keeping the kitchen clean
Whats most important is that the kids are happy.
I will always cook dinner but if you are able to help then thats a bonus!

Our carers really join our family, so this role is more then just "watching" the kids, but actively being with the kids. The girls are all totally different personalities but are all warm and loving and respond well to a positive caring personality and someone who can actively listen to what the kids are telling you. The role also involves holding firm boundaries at times in a kind way (or else they will convince you they can eat nutella and cream sandwiches every day as an after school snack! This is far from their first rodeo with a new Nanny!)

If you are interested I would love to organise a chat where we can make sure we are the right fit for each other.
Cant wait to meet you! :)

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 530 pm. 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)
* I do not expect any housework

Essential criteria
* Experience with children
* Refernces
* 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.
