We are Dan and Rebecca, Australian, and we have two kids, 6 and 9 a girl and a boy respectively. Both kids are at school in Bronte - we have purchased a house in Bondi Junction and will move in start of October .

Our current nanny is heading back to Spain , so we're looking for someone to pick up where she left off - we're happy to connect you with our nanny so she can tell you about us and our kids. The days and hours we need a nanny for are:

Monday-Thursday 2:30/3pm-8pm

The main routine is meet the kids at the school gate, bring home or coordinate with their afterschool activities or take them out for a bit of an adventure as needed, then bring them back for bath/shower, prepare dinner, and then settle them into evening routines, including putting our youngest to bed around 7:30pm.

We really value a nanny who is calm with our kids, a creative thinker, confident in their experience, and who is also comfortable cooking meals for the kids and taking the initiative around meals.

Thank you and we hope to hear from you !

Looking for a casual/part-time nanny to build a trusted relationship with my 14 months old toddler girl. She goes to daycare Mon-Fri but I’m a single mum and need a back-up who I can trust and rely on to do early pick-ups during the week or when needed.

We can start with 2-3h Saturday or Sunday where we get to know each other and/or go to the playground together and take it from there.

We are Austrian/Australian and open to all nationalities. Living in Queens Park.

We are seeking a reliable and caring part-time nanny to support our family with three children aged 6, 9, and 12. The role includes morning care, assisting with school preparation, and a short 5-minute walk to school drop-off, as well as after-school care. Responsibilities include transporting children to extracurricular activities (within walking distance), preparing simple meals, and helping with light household tidying. The ideal candidate is organised, energetic, and enjoys engaging with school-aged children. Comfort around dogs is essential, as we have a friendly family pet. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys a busy, family-focused environment. There is flexibility in hours and pay.

We are a busy professional family looking for a warm, reliable and organised nanny/family assistant for our two primary-school-aged children.

Monday & Tuesday, 2:30pm–7:00pm | Start: 19 October 2026

Duties include:

* Pick up one child from McAuley Catholic Primary at 3pm, then the second from Kincoppal-Rose Bay
* Tuesday swimming at Cranbrook
* Afternoon care, homework, reading and showers
* Prepare afternoon tea and children’s dinner
* Light household duties, including tidying children’s and kitchen areas

A family car is provided.

Experience with school-aged children, a current WWCC, First Aid/CPR, excellent references and a full driver’s licence are required.

We are looking for someone seeking a regular, ongoing position.

$40–45/hour depending on experience.

I am looking for some regular part-time help 1.5-3 days a week as well as occasional help with babysitting. Our nanny of 3 years has just let me know she needs to spend more time on university now that she is doing her practicum. We have three kids: Bella is 5, Naomi is 3 and James is 18 months old. We are looking for someone who can spend time with the kids, and do school pick ups (1-2 kids at a time). Ideal days are Tuesday and Friday, but are flexible re hours and days for the right person. We have a full time mother's helper at home, so this is really focused on childcare.

Must be ok with a big dog, and mum who works from home.

We currently have 2 girls (4, and almost 2) and a 3rd girl on the way (due end of November). We are looking for a full-time nanny that has experience with newborns and toddlers and flexibility with their schedule. On a regular basis, we are looking for 8-9 hours of help per day from Monday through Friday. We will have a separate live-in nanny to help take care of the newborn for the first 2-3 months, but after that we would want our nanny to help with the baby as well. Our 4 year old will be in school most of the day. Thank you!

We’re a family in Paddington looking for a warm, engaging and reliable nanny to care for our daughter three days a week when I go back to work in January 2027, when our daughter is 15 months old. We'd love for you to start in December to get to know our family. The three days aren’t set yet, so there is some flexibility for the right person.

Margot is a happy, curious and very social little girl, and we’d love to find someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with toddlers and will become an important and trusted part of her week. We’re looking for someone active, creative and engaged, who is happy to get out for walks, playgrounds, library visits and local activities, as well as coming up with fun and age-appropriate things to do at home.

The role would primarily involve caring for Margot, including preparing her meals/snacks during the day, putting her down for her nap, taking her to activities/outings and generally keeping her happy while we’re at work. We’d also appreciate help keeping her things and play areas tidy during the day, but we’re not looking for a housekeeper.

We also have Fudge, our very friendly 3-year-old Labradoodle, so you’ll need to be comfortable having a dog around (being a dog person is definitely a bonus!).

We’re hoping to find someone who is warm, affectionate and genuinely enjoys engaging with young children, active and happy to get out and about with Margot, creative and confident planning age-appropriate play and activities, experienced in caring for toddlers, and comfortable with dogs.

If this sounds like a good fit, we’d love to hear a little about you, your experience with children, your availability, and what you enjoy doing with the children you care for.

We are a family of four with a busy schedule! Myself and my partner Greg both work full time hours and have two lovely kids. We are looking for someone to collect our 7 year old daughter from School twice a week and bring her home. Ideally they could also cook a meal for her and our other daughter who we will collect on our way back from the work. They will need a car and a license.

I'm looking for someone weekly to babysit from midday to 5:30pm on Wednesdays for our 17 month old daughter.

We are a married couple of young professionals living in Petersham and working in Chippendale and the CBD.
My husband will be home until 1pm on Wednesdays so we just need someone from midday (for handover) until I get home from work (in the CBD).

I work in media and my husband is a clinical psychologist. Would love to find someone for this recurring Wednesday gig and the ad hoc weekend or night time babysitting as needed.

Successful applicant should be confident with putting her down for her nap, and prepping lunch and arvo snacks.(we usually leave something in the fridge but if you're able to whip something up too that is a bonus). She has no allergies. She loves to wander around the park near our place, go on the swings and go up and down the slide. Also very happy colouring and being read books. Quite happy for you to hop on the bus or train and go for an afternoon adventure as she does get a bit bored at home.

**reposted. My current nanny stayed longer than expected.
