One of our lovely sitters is moving on and we are hopeful someone can help us on a Thursday before and after school, and also Tuesday and Friday mornings. ! Our two children Thomas 8yrs old & Lilli 11yrs old attend two differing schools. You would be required to arrive at 7.30am on the mornings and assist our youngest with getting ready for school. With our spare car, an Audi A4 wagon, you will drop off Thomas to Grimwade in Elsternwick and - occasionally - Lilli to Korowa in Glen Iris and then drive back to Elsternwick to bring back the car. All done by 8:30 or so!
For Thurs afternoon - 2.45pm you will arrive at our home to use our car to pick up children, Thomas first and occasionally - the reverse order to morning drop-off.
Upon returning to our house, the following routine is typical:
-30min play/snack period
-Lilli to complete her homework
-bath or shower Thomas
- cook up dinner for the two children (I usually prep veggies and meal for you)
-This shift ends circa 6.30-7pm
-ideally kitchen and living area are both tidy when we arrive home. And that’s it!
Our two children are beautiful, cuddly and polite and Lilli can assist with Thomas. Your own car is not essential however your ability to drive is. Both my husband Mark and I work full time but we are always a text message away.
Hi, my partner and I are parents to an adorable two-month old baby girl. We need help with her care during morning and early afternoon hours.

Days will be between Mon-Thurs and we can be flexible with that. Hours are 9am-1pm. We are looking for someone with baby experience. We value privacy, cleanliness, friendliness, and safety very much for our family and relationships. If you are interested in working with us, then please reach out!

We are initially looking for a full day on Monday as well as Wednesday afternoon and Thursday afternoon and evening. Next year we will be looking to extend those hours as I take on more of a full time workload although we will have some flexibility between my husband, George and I.
We would appreciate someone who has experience with infants and young babies especially with introduction of solid food and encouraging reliable sleep patterns.

We are seeking an experienced, reliable, and nurturing nanny to care for our sweet 6-month-old baby boy. This is a permanent part-time position, offering 26–28 hours per week across three and a half days. *Must be available for Monday and Tuesday*

How are you ?!
I am looking for a babysitter who can really engage with my kids who are 5 and 8.
They have vastly different personalities so you need to be able to speak with them and engage with them differently , creatively and compassionately and sometimes be a mediator ! It will really come down to how well you can interact with them and really how much they gravitate towards you.
Everything else that I would require is the standard police check , wwc , driving , responsibility and safety etc etc !
At the moment it is casual work moving into the holidays and then it’ll be regular !
Look forward to chatting if you’re free, available and willing to!

Ideally, if the babysitter could be comfortable with travel, we will cover food costs, flights and accommodation.

Hi We live in Carnegie and have two daughters, aged 1 and 5. We’re looking for a babysitter primarily for our 1-year-old (since our older daughter is usually at school) for 2-3 days a week, a few hours each day. We also need someone comfortable with light housework and cleaning. If you are interested, could you please share your availability, hourly rate, and email address so we can arrange an online meeting first? Thanks!
Our daughter is 7 years old and a bit of a legend. She loves dinosaurs, imaginary games, art and soccer. She’s funny, energetic, a gorgeous person… and yes, we may be her biggest fan.
We are looking for a babysitter/nanny to help with between two and four days pick up after school. We’d also love some help when the school holidays roll around. Our daughter goes to school in Kew, and we have a lovely home in Surrey Hills. Some days she has activities like tennis at the local tennis club, and other days we’re happy for you to come home together and explore (along with the odd bit of homework).
We want to partner with someone who shares our daughter's passions and energy. We leave the tv off and world around us turned up. We welcome exposure to things like science experiments, museums and galleries, particularly on the holidays.
You’ll need a car to pick her up too.
We would like to find someone who can help for at least a few years so we can form a partnership together.
We are a family of four, looking for an experienced infant nanny for TWO weekdays (can be flexible which days) per week of care for our baby daughter.

Our eldest daughter is five years old and attends a local primary school - pick up from school by nanny not essential but would be helpful to have as a back up. We also have an eight year old greyhound who is very placid and sleeps all day.
Hours are also somewhat flexible but need to cover at least between 8:15am and 5pm on both days. We are ideally looking for someone who can commit to the position for at least 12 months.
We would also like to ensure that there can be a 1-2 week period of shadowing prior to mother's return to work on 26th of May.
Up-to-date first aid qualifications, WWCC, non-smoker and driver's license are a must for us.
We look forward to hearing from you!

We are looking for someone to come and be a part of our kids lives, make lunches, beds etc and take kids to school.
We are 700m from school however full driver's license and car is preferred. We also have a Golden Retriever that loves to join in on the fun and walk with the kids.

We are a family of three, soon to be four (baby boy arriving mid-May) living in north Brighton (we are a four minute walk from Gardenvale station). Mum is a tax lawyer taking an extended career break and dad is a busy plastic surgeon. We are looking for a caring, responsible and reliable babysitter / mother’s helper to help out with our six year old high-functioning neurodiverse son on Monday and Tuesday mornings (6:45-10:45am), and the new baby when required.
The role would mainly involve supervising our son getting ready for school, making his breakfast and lunch, and helping us with tidying the kitchen (post breakfast and lunch prep) and living space, some laundry and possibly a bit of food prep / unpacking and putting away groceries (to the extent there is time). No heavy cleaning is required as we have weekly cleaners. We may need you to take the six year old to school (St Michael’s Grammar) on the train, or for you to look after the baby while mum takes him to school.
Experience with young babies required. Rate is negotiable based on experience. Would suit someone studying or looking to supplement another job.
Ideally you would be able to start at the end of April to enable our son to get used to the arrangement prior to the arrival of the new baby.
More hours may become available when dad goes back to doing public work (in addition to his private work) in July and over the winter school holidays. Some evening work may also be available over time if of interest.
With our two boys now in Grade 2 and 5, we are looking for a superstar house-helper, somewhere between a housekeeper and a nanny.
After collecting the children from school/sport, main duties would be folding washing, preparing evening meal, perhaps a bit of ironing or prepping lunchbox snacks or some local errands. The boys have their own chores to help contribute, and need an adult nearby to ask, should they need help with homework but otherwise are pretty self-sufficient.
If you enjoy having well behaved (almost always!) kids around for company but are a clean machine and enjoy keeping a tidy home, we would love to hear from you. Pay and hours negotiable for the right person.
