I’m looking for a nanny to come to our home for a few hours per week to engage with my children in a hands-on, playful, and educational way. The ideal person will have a background in early childhood education and be confident setting up age-appropriate activities that support learning and development.
I’m after someone who can truly connect with the kids—playing with them, guiding them through creative and stimulating experiences like sensory play, basic science experiments, storytelling, and games. This role is more than just supervision; I’ll be home during this time, so I’m seeking someone who can take the lead in enriching their day through fun, purposeful play.
Eventually, once there is a mutual trust and connection, hours and days may increase.
It’s important to us to find someone with the right mix of skill and heart—someone who will make a positive and lasting impact on our children.
We’re looking for a friendly and reliable person to help with our afternoon routine for our three lovely kids. (13,10,8) on Monday and Tuesdays 3pm-6pm.
You would collect our kids from their primary school and provide fun supervision for the afternoon. You would need to be able to make kid friendly dinners (eg spag bol, tacos), do a load of laundry and a bit of a tidy up.
We both work full time, and we're a bit disorganised as a family, so we need someone that likes things being in order, and can be proactive in helping out on that front.
You would need a licence and a safe car to drive short trips of 5km for school pick up, and to/from from netball.
Please get in touch if it sounds like a good fit. We hope to hear from you!
