I am looking for a babysitter to care for my 1 year old boy (born Jan 2024) 1 day a week (either Mon, Tues or Wed) in Elwood while my husband and I are at work. He goes to childcare Thurs/Fri each week. We’d also be looking for some additional casual babysitting hours on top of the regular weekday eg 4-6 hours once a fortnight on a weekend or evening.
Our son is a smiley, inquisitive and adventurous child. He loves the outdoors and being active. He has recently started walking and loves going on trips to loval playgrounds.
We are looking for someone who is comfortable preparing food and feeding our child, bathing him, taking him to the playground or park and setting up activities or toys for him to play with. Ideally we’d also like the person to assist with household tasks or food preparation while he naps for ~2-3 hours each day.
Please contact us if you think you’d be a good fit for this role. Start date would be late June/early July.
Hi, our daughter is 18 months old and we now require an extroverted nanny for the following times every Thursday 10-5pm, Friday 2-6pm, Saturday 2 - 5pm and Sunday 10-4. Its very important to be talkative and engaging as she feels more comfortable with such personalities. We prefer a good history of nannying alongside having first aid certificate, police check, working with children check. We are based in Kew and will, of course, take the time to explain and be around you to help build an easy going routine and comfort between our daughter and you.
Rate - $35 per hour. Appreciate your time, thank you.
We have three beautiful kids - two year old twins and a four year old. Our four year old will be at Kinder on Wednesday and Thursday from 8:30am-4pm so you would mostly be with the twins. The role would involve dropping our son off and picking him up from Kinder (walking distance), making meals for the kids, putting the twins down for a nap around midday, and doing some general housework like laundry and cooking.
We are a friendly and relaxed family who are looking for someone who enjoys spending time with kids and who will take good care if them. We would love someone who will play with them and get them out of the house - to the park, library, play group etc.

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!

Needing Wednesdays 8am-5pm and Friday mornings 8:30am-12:30

Twins currently do 2x 2hour naps during the day, so basic household jobs relating to the kids (washing, tidying toys, meal prep) can be done during this time.
We also have an almost three year old girl, however she will be in daycare (there may be the odd occassion when she is also home to be looked after on a Friday morning).

In early 2026, care will focus on our baby—including bringing her to my nearby workplace for feeds when needed.
We’re based in a 4-bedroom home with a big backyard, close to parks, walking tracks, shops, and the local library. You’re welcome to drive our car (with car seats), and we’ll treat you like part of our family.
