The role would include:
• Morning drop-off and pick-up once or twice a week (class runs for about 2 hours) — driver’s licence & clean record essential

About you
• Warm, caring, and genuinely enjoy being with kids
• Reliable and organised — punctuality is key for drop-offs/pick-ups
• Comfortable in the water and happy to join swimming lessons
• Engaged and playful — you enjoy outings and toddler adventures

Hello! We're a fun-loving Mosman family with 3 children (aged 8, 12 and 14 years). Our older two are quite independent (!), but we need after school (3-6pm) babysitting 2 days per week, for our 8 yo daughter. She is cheerful, good fun and well behaved, and loves sports, dancing and reading. Duties would be: pick her up from school, supervise homework, play and/or take her to after school sports or piano lessons (all local in Mosman). We can be quite flexible: we'd need someone 2 days out of the 4 days that I work (Monday to Thursday). Several of her sports are at Balmoral so you would need a car and drivers licence, please (its too far to walk, from our house!). Our house is in the Sirius Cove area. Our daughter is in good health, no allergies/food issues, so she's generally pretty easy to take care of! Please message me if interested. Cheers, Kate
