Looking for someone who can be a caring, fun and organised after-school nanny for our happy, content and inquisitive 1 year old and our confident, friendly and creative 5 year old.
Regular hours would be Tuesdays 2:30- 7pm with the options of additional afternoons / evenings from time to time and potential but not requirement for additional hours during school holidays.
Our children form a bond with their nanny so we’d prefer it if you can commit to an ongoing regular schedule rather than a short term / casual placement.
We are located in Toorak with an easy stroll to shops, library, parks and playgrounds.
Our 1 year old child is very happy and relaxed, loves sensory play, music and getting outdoors. She attends daycare around a 15 minute drive from our home. We also have a 5 year old at a nearby kinder about 5 minutes drive / 10 minutes tram away. We will provide access to our car & car seat. Our 5 year old is very into music, stories, sport and games. My husband and i occasionally work from home but are usually stuck at our desks most of the day.
Key responsibilities each Tuesday woukd be pick up from kinder and child care using our car, bringing the children home, run some fun after school activities eg fames, craft, outdoor play, and then running the dinner / bathtime routine.
Time permitting we would also like your help with child-related light housework if i am home or the baby is asleep, eg keeping toys & clothes organised, setting up / cleaning up activities such as painting or craft, preparing lunch box, putting a pie or lasagne in oven for dinner. If you’ve got particular skills or interests in household management woud ove to hear about it!
You would need to have a drivers licence, WWC and child first aid (though we are happy to support you in obtainjng first aid cert. for a auccessful candidate).
The right fit with us and our family is more important than your level of experience or qualifications, though references are preferred. We can also provide references for you to speak with other nannies who have worked with our family, we think its important that you are as happy with the fit as we are!
