Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Sydney NSW

Hello, we’re a family of four, living in Double Bay. We’re originally from London and I have a 5 year old at school and a 6 month old. The role would be to come every weekday before school, helping with the school run and breakfast, followed by nannying with the baby, and assisting me with/preparing dinner. It would be roughly 7.30am-3pm Monday - Thursday, and later into the evening on Fridays. But timings are all negotiable for the right candidate. The role will also include managing and organising the girls rooms and toys, and light housekeeping.

We’re looking for someone who will genuinely become part of the family as neither of us have family in Sydney. We’re warm, generous and really involved with our girls.

The role will include holiday pay, however, there is an expectation that we work together to take holidays at the same time that we travel, where possible. We travel back to Europe at least twice a year for a few weeks at a time. If you were to travel with us, there would be firstly no requirement to do so, but if you chose to, there would be additional pay.

As a full time role, we’re looking to pay approximately $70,000 p.a plus superannuation, for the right candidate.

We’re a busy, active, funny and honest family of 5 humans and 1 big dog. We are looking for an active, fun, reliable, tidy and responsible au pair, who has common sense and initiative, to join our household to help us keep the family running. The role involves at least 3 afternoons a week, of school pick up, homework, dinner, bath, bed, for 3 kids; and ad hoc help with housework. Au pair’s quarters are a separate granny flat, away from main house, lockable, with own bathroom. 10-12 hours work (open for negotiation) in return for board and utilities, and hourly rate for work in addition (there is at least an additional 7 hours). Would be great if au pair has own car (stipend for petrol / insurance can be discussed), but at the very least, au pair must drive as driving is required everyday. House located near main shopping and transport hub in Eastern suburbs, as well as parks.
Must provide CV and at least 2 referees able to talk to the parents by phone (Equally, our prior nannies would be happy to talk by phone to confirm we’re good people!). Children are VERY active and the family needs someone with great-happy-upbeat energy - love of soccer also a plus :-) Parents are very involved, so you won’t be “running the show” on your own - its mainly to fill a gap while parents work and help when kids’ activities are in different directions and more than one grown up needed. Thanks for reading and looking forward to hearing from you if you genuinely feel you are right for this role. Best regards

Hello,
We need help before and after school for our daughters age 7, 9 and 12. We live in Bronte, a very short walk to the girls school (Clovelly public). They have activities some days- we have a car available. Job involves school pick up at 3pm then looking after the girls and preparing dinner. Hours 3-7- often we finish earlier- in which case you'd be paid of course but can have an early mark.

Hello!

We are looking for a responsible, experienced and caring part-time babysitter/nanny to help with our 2 year old for four hours this Thursday morning, as well as on an upcoming Saturday/Sunday during the daytime (can be flexible on the weekend day, but looking for someone for this Thursday morning!). We also have a 10 month old baby, but the care would be only for the toddler, and would not require you to watch both children at the same time (at least not right now).

We are looking for someone who can provide care in the morning for our two year old so Mum can take the baby out to an appointment this week.

Ideally this person would also be available to contact for one off babysitter if they’re free in the future, including an upcoming weekend day before Christmas (either a Saturday or Sunday one weekend upcoming before Xmas)

The ideal person would be happy to spend the time engaging thoughtfully and creatively 1-on-1 with the toddler either inside or outside the home. This is not a role where a candidate is just ‘supervising’ the child, but truly engaging and entertaining her through doing different actives in the home (like drawing, singing, pretend play, reading etc) or taking her to the park and engage with her whilst she plays on the equipment or run around with her etc.

Looking for someone that ideally has experience with this age group, lives on the lower north shore or can commute here easily, and has a schedule that can accomodate this position.

Thank you and look forward to hearing from you :)

We're a family looking for a caring, reliable and proactive nanny to join us and help care for our sweet and happy 8 month old, as well as our clever chatty 3 year old.

Hours:
4-4.5 days a week (Mon, Tues, Weds, Thurs - plus a few hours on Friday if desired)
8am-5.45pm Mon-Thurs (you will be with the baby across all 4 days, and will also look after our toddler in the late afternoons)
We're open to flexibility and potentially engaging two nannies if there is a desire to work less than 4 days
Start date: We are looking for care from January and can be somewhat flexible on the start date

What we're looking for:
Someone who brings warmth, initiative and a genuine love of working with children. We value a calm, structured approach - especially for our baby who is on a nap schedule - so experience with baby sleep routines is ideal. It is very important that this person is punctual as my husband and I often have meetings in the morning and have to leave on time.

We are also looking for someone who also has flexibility around night times as we can have work events in the evening.

We'd love someone who is happy to prepare healthy meals and snacks for the children, keep things tidy and pitch in with light household chores (e.g dishes, folding and laundry) when the children are napping or playing independently. We want someone who is happy to lend a hand around the home during nap times (rather than just scrolling or waiting for time to pass - initiative is important to us!)

We're close to the beach and parks, and there is easy street parking and great public transport access. We're also very open to ideas for outings and activities - local libraries, playgrounds, museums, shows, baby sensory, Play studio - and of course happy to cover any reasonable costs for fun, enriching experiences you'd like to try with the kids. We have a strict no TV policy and prefer to minimise phone usage around our children.

We also have a dog so you need to be comfortable with pets.

Must have:
* Experience with babies under 12 months
* WWCC
* Long term availability (ideally 1-2 years)
* Child related qualifications preferred (but not essential)

Rate is negotiable for the right person - we truly value great care and want this to be a wonderful fit for both sides.

Looking for responsible babysitter to stay overnight with my 2 x teenagers (12 & 17) one night per week: prepare dinner, supervise homework and bedtime routine for 12 year old, make sure pets are fed (2 cats, 1 dog), stay overnight & get kids off to school in the morning.

Hi lovely nannies!

We are a family of 6 (with a little cavoodle) looking for an experienced, warm, nurturing, kind and loving nanny to give us a hand with our two energetic little girls (1yo and 4yo).

Ideally, I'd like our nanny to be with us for the long term.

A little bit about us:
We are a family who believes in natural health, healthy eating and maintaining a low/ non-tox lifestyle.
Our ideal nanny would be someone who shares our values.

Our ideal nanny:
We are looking for someone who is an experienced nanny looking after multiple children, kind, patient, attentive, nurturing and has a genuine interest in supporting the development of children.

As our children have activities in different suburbs, we need a nanny who is a confident driver on busy roads with a valid driver's licence.

We are a multi-generational household, our ideal nanny will be comfortable with grandparents being around.

As we are a busy household, we would really appreciate someone who has a can-do attitude, proactive and can work independently and in a team with other family members.

We would also prefer someone who is not cvax (or any other vax), or is respectful of our choices in this regard.

If the above sounds like you, please reach out! I would love to know more about you and how we may be aligned.

We would also love the opportunity to connect and hopefully welcome you into our family in the new year!

Our family is looking for a regular nanny / babysitter to help us out approx. 3 times a week with childcare (looking after kids, picking them up from school, keeping them occupied for a few hours on the weekend so the parents can focus on work and personal activities).

I have listed our preferred timings but happy to be flexible.

BONUS: It will be great if you can help with laundry / ironing too.

We would love someone kind, responsible and playful to join our family on a regular basis.

Cheers,
Sadia
