Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Wantirna South VIC

Hi, I’m Manoj (dad). We’re a friendly family of four — mum and dad, a 12‑year‑old daughter, and an 8‑year‑old son. I travel frequently for work, and my wife works part‑time on Thursdays and Fridays, so we’re looking for a caring babysitter specifically for those two days.
The role would involve coming to our home around 6:30 am, spending about two hours with the kids, and then dropping our son off at school by 8:30 am (it’s only a 5‑minute drive).
On average, I travel for about two weeks each month, so this won’t be every week — it’s a casual but longer‑term arrangement. We’re happy to pay $35–$40 per hour.
Cheers,
Manoj

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!

Hi there,

I’m a single mum of three beautiful kids, currently looking for a reliable and caring babysitter to help with my two youngest daughters (aged 2.5 and 1.5) a couple of evenings each week.

This role is really about supporting our little family so I can spend some one-on-one time with my 7-year-old son, taking him to his footy training and being present for him during this new chapter.

Hours required:

* Tuesdays: 5:30pm – 7:30pm
* Thursdays: 4:30pm – 7:30pm
* Optional: Occasional Saturday (every second weekend) while I play a footy match

What the role involves:

* Assisting with dinner for the girls
* Bath time
* Putting them to bed (they’re usually down by 6pm 😊)
* Relaxing at the house until I return

Once the girls are asleep, it’s a very cruisy role—perfect for someone who enjoys a calm evening environment.

A little about us:
We’ve recently moved to the area, and my son has just started at a new primary school. We’re really focused on building strong community connections through school and sport. He currently plays for Upper Ferntree Gully, and these evenings are important for his confidence and sense of belonging.

I’d also love to return to playing in a women’s footy team myself, but at the moment, I need the right support in place for my girls to make that possible.

Who would suit this role:

* Someone warm, patient, and genuinely enjoys young children
* Confident managing a simple bedtime routine
* Reliable and consistent
* Bonus if you have experience with toddlers

This role would suit a uni student, nanny, or someone local looking for a consistent, low-stress evening position.

If this sounds like something you’d love to be part of, I’d love to hear from you.

Thanks so much,
Sam

- Early mornings before kinder/daycare
- Evenings after we get home
- Possibly some daytime hours on Wednesdays and weekends
