Hi babysitters,

I have 1 shift to fill:

Friday September 25th 2pm - 9pm

This is a good trial shift for many causal shifts I often have.

In our home: Darlinghurst/Surry Hills boarder
Children: 2 girls 3.5 & 5
Pets: No
CCTV: Yes
Parking: No. Bike parking across the road though.
Public transport: Buses along Oxford Street. 2 - 3 minute walk or Museum train station 8 minute walk.

Serve prepared meals & wash up any used bowls or cutlery.

Both are toilet trained but do require assistance if they need it. Mainly the youngest help to reach washing her hands. Both cleaning properly if they do a poo. Both wear night time nappies.

Engage with toys, art and crafts, books.

Help them to pack away their toys at the end of the day before bed.

No house cleaning as such. However if any mess is made on your shift I ask it be cleaned or tidied up. The same goes for any used bowls or cutlery.

Bedtime routine including supervising their evening shower. They never had cry it out or sleep schedules. Shutting the door on them & lights out is not something I condone. They will tell you when they are ready for bed..Stay with them until they are completely asleep & leave the door open incase they wake & attend to them if they do wake.

Tooth brushing before bed & sunscreen if going outside.

Any toys used or activities done, please tidy up.

Will contact suitable applicants for an interview and verificaiton of WWCC, Police check & references. If selected will re-check if available. If a shift is cancelled, I will not offer any future shifts.

Thank you.

Hi there,
We're a small family of 4 looking for help with our 9 month old boy + 3 year old girl for Wednesdays (approximately 8 am til 5/6 pm) and the occasional evening babysitting where possible. Our kids are sweet, easygoing, love the outdoors and are both in good routines with sleep/food/new people.
We also have a young groodle called Dottie who is very sweet.
The ask would be to take the kids/dog to the park or activity for a play nearby. If you can help tidy up toys / clear the decks + prepare some kids snacks and lunch that would be a huge bonus.

Ideally we would like someone who can commit for at least the next 12 months.
