We’re a warm, busy family looking for an energetic, caring nanny/educator to join us 2–3 days a week for our two little loves (10 months and 3 years).We are flexible on days, but need 7:45am - 5:45pm.

In October I will be back at work and will be working from home 2 days per week (probably Tuesday and Wednesday) so will mostly be available.

I will also require you to come in a few weeks beforehand for a few hours a day so that my kids can get used to you (we can chat about this as I’m flexible with the days and hours). There may also be opportunity for ad hoc babysitting later on for the right person.

- Playing with the boys

What is required:

- Early childhood education highly regarded but not essential

I also have a 3yo boy who will be there in the morning and afternoons after preschool, in October you won’t be required to look after him as either my husband or I will be home but he will be there for a short amount of time.

If you are available and this is of interest please send me a message with a bit about yourself and your experience.

Hi there, we are looking for a long-term nanny for our 5 month old baby as I transition back to part-time work.

I am first looking for someone a few days per week initially for approximately 4-5 hours per day to help with baby duties and also some home help (washing, folding, organisation). We already have a cleaner every fortnight so no heavy cleaning but some home help and meal prep would be appreciated. I am currently flexible with days.

When I transition back to work over the next few months I am looking for someone likely full time for 3-4 days per week to look after baby and also help around the house (hours negotiable).

Must have experience with young babies, WWCC, references.

We are looking for someone long-term to join us. Must be kind, patient and calm. Reliability is highly valued. Hourly rate dependent on experience/qualifications. We look forward to hearing from you ! Alice
