My husband and I are looking for a part-time nanny to join our family in caring for our 12 month old son. I work Monday-Wednesday. And my husband works full time. He works from home on a Tuesday, so we are hoping to keep our son at home with the help of a nanny on Tuesday's. We will also require support on the occasional Wednesday. Working days would be from around 8.30am-4.30pm. Our son is a very happy boy, and very adaptable. He is active so requires a lot of attention when playing. He isn't allergic to anything. We also have a 2 and half year old Labradoodle. If you feel you are the right fit for our family, please reach out. We would love to hear from you!

Looking for a nanny to take care of my child from 9am till 1 pm

Hi all

This is a little left field, but I am after anyone on here who lives within reasonable driving distance as a personal assistant.

If you're a little over the nannying or want to fill up more hours, this may be a great role.

Would help me with office work, making reservations, purchasing supplies etc.

Mostly can be done from home, so flexibility is there!

Must be good with Microsoft office software, Xero is a bonus. Good English is a must

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!

We need help after school Tuesday - Thursday, 3-6pm. Kids are very well behaved and good fun.

I have two beautiful girls aged 10 and 8. I need care for after school from 3.15PM til 6.15PM atleast 4 days a week.
Assistance with homework. I would like someone who is fun and enjoys working with children.

Hi there! We are looking for a happy and reliable nanny to look after our 2 girls, aged 3 & 6 years old after daycare / school. The role will be to collect the girls from daycare / school (walking them home from daycare around the corner) and then giving them dinner. We would like someone with nanny experience and references. This is not a baby sitting role so please do not apply if you do not have any paid nanny / childcare experience.
We are Leichhardt based. The hours will be Tuesday 4:30 pm-7pm / Wednesday 3pm-7pm / Thursday 4:30pm -7pm. Occasionally some alter evenings if possible. Looking forward to hearing from you soon :)

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.

Hello,

We are an easy-going family based in Redfern, looking for a reliable and flexible nanny to care for our 7-year-old daughter. She is a calm and easygoing child who attends school in Waverley.

We’re seeking someone available regularly on Mondays, with the possibility of additional shifts on an as-needed basis. Homework help and support with her evening/bedtime routine will be part of the role. Having your own vehicle is preferable, as school pick-ups are required.

If you're kind, responsible, and enjoy working with children, we’d love to hear from you!

Stephany Game

Our beloved nanny has recently retired, and we're now looking for a caring and committed individual to step into her shoes and become an integral part of our family. We have three bright and engaging children, aged 6, 10, and 12, who are excited to welcome a new nanny.

This role primarily involves before and after school care on Thursdays (7-8 hours) and occasional Fridays (3 hours), along with some light, child-focused duties. We're based in Miranda and are seeking someone who can make a long-term commitment. We've found that consistency helps our children thrive and allows us to build a strong, supportive relationship with our nanny.

If you're passionate about working with children and are looking for a stable, fulfilling role within a warm family environment, we'd love to hear from you. Please let us know if you're interested in discussing this opportunity further!

Care of our eldest boy (R) after school on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. Approx. 245-5pm Monday and Thursday and 245-4 on Wednesdays (approx 6-8hrs pw). One parent will usually be WFH at the same time. Pick him up from school in your vehicle or use our e-bike (if confident). Organise an afternoon snack, playtime, reading and some screen time. On Wednesdays, prepare snacks for R and our younger daughter (B) and swimming gear for swimming at 5pm (parent will take). We are keen for this time to be happy and calm and focus on recovery from the busyness of the school day. We have a cavoodle puppy who will love to play and go for walks too. R is allergic to nuts so we are keen for the successful candidate to have first aid/anaphylaxis training (this can be gained after commencement)

Casual evening and weekend babysitting opportunities may be available too.

We are Mathilde and Alexis. We moved to Australia 2 years ago with our sons, Marceau 6yo, and Gaëtan 5yo. They both go to the French school, Lycee Condorcet, on Moverly Road. We live 5min walk from there on Garrett Street.
We are looking for someone who could manage the mornings from 6:30am to 8:30am, at least 3 days a week.
My husband has to leave the house at 6:30am and I will be travelling to Melbourne regularly, this is why we need this flexibility in the Morning. We would also need help for after school on Thursday to bring the kids to their swimclass (also 5min from the school). This would be for approx 1h30 from 4:30pm to 6pm.
We are also considering after school assistance for at least another day during the week, same hours.

That is our initial idea of organisation but we are open to discussion for days and hours.

We are a loving family seeking a nurturing and energetic nanny to care for our active 1-year-old boy and our enthusiastic almost 3-year-old girl. We value creativity, patience, and a passion for early childhood development. Hours would be from 8-5ish every Thursday.

We are an Australian family who has recently returned from the US to Australia.

Our youngest daughter was enrolled in Year 5 in February, but has just been moved mid-year to Year 6. Her school has indicated that while the move is necessary (she is very bright and is used to being with slightly older kids in the classroom), she needs maths support outside school to ensure she is ready for Australian high school.

I am looking for a carer who is studying teaching or is a teacher and has a solid grasp of the Australian curriculum, who could provide tutoring a couple of times per week for the next 6-8 months. I am willing to pay well for the right person, with rates dependent on qualifications and experience!

We are in Paddington, close to Edgecliff station and Oxford St.
