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

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!

We’re looking for a full-time nanny for our 11 months old son who could take care of him while we’re at our home offices in meetings.

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

Assist with maintaining the family home to a high standard (general tidying, making beds, vacuuming, washing ad hoc spring cleaning etc.). Assist with caring for 3 children including pick up and drop off to school and after school activities.

Assist in meal preparation including food planning, packing children's lunches, grocery shopping & assist with preparing of meals. Running errands as required (dry cleaning etc.).

Would be required 3 days a week but I am flexible with days. Potential to do 5 days once we move into our bigger house.

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!

Hello! I’m Monique. I am currently a nanny for a beautiful family and will be going on maternity leave in August.
On the lookout for kind and dependable individuals to join our team of nannies. Care is for a beautiful family comprising of four children, under the age of seven. Though you will be caring primarily for two of the children.

Help is needed 7 days a week. Shifts are shared among a team of nannies. Hours are typically morning and afternoon/ evening Monday to Friday (e.g. 6:30–9:30 a.m. and 2:30–8:00 p.m.) though room for flexibility! Additional hours available during the day to assist with additional household tasks. Weekend support needed, morning through till night shared among the team, depending on individuals availability. 

Main responsibilities: morning routine, school drop-offs and pickups (walking distance), engaging in play, assisting with meals, baths, and bedtime, and handling household tasks such as laundry, tidying, and meal preparation—a nanny role.

Please reach out if you are interested or have any questions 🙂

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

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.

Hi there
We are a family of 3 based in Rozelle, my husband and I both work and we have a 13 month old son. He is a happy, curious and playful little guy. We are looking for help caring for him two days a week from 9am to 5pm. One of us would be working from home so would be around in case of any issues. The job would include giving our son morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea (meals would be mostly prepped, would just require heating or light cooking).

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 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.

I have a fab 6 (nearly 7 year old) - Grace - and we are looking for some help on a regular basis. We previously had a Uni student big sister, she was with us for 4 years and just got a full time job so is wrapping up with us. Im looking for that uni student profile and age.

Bit about us - I'm a busy full time working single mum looking for someone who feels more like a big sister than a formal nanny/babysitter to be part of our little family. Someone warm, reliable, organised and fun. Currently we are can looking at every week on a Thursday, but there is an option for tuesday aswell.

What does it involve?
Grace is at Woollahra Public school and we live within walking distance. Thursday would be collecting her from aftercare around 4pm, bringing her home, some games/homework, making her dinner and get her in the bath/shower. Im home between 6 and 7. But I always pay 4-7pm as the hours. Sometimes I will have work events and stay out a bit later too.

If we did a Tuesday that would be taking her to dance class at bondi junction and dropping her at her dads. Hours for that would be, 4-6pm.

We provide a credit card for all expenses (treats from the shop!) and the car too if needed.
