Full-Time Nanny / Housekeeper / Family Assistant

Oatlands, NSW | Monday–Friday | Long-Term Position

We are a busy family based in Oatlands looking for a warm, reliable and highly organised Nanny / Housekeeper / Family Assistant to become a long-term part of our household.

We currently have three children aged 7, 4 and 1, with another baby on the way. Our children attend school, preschool or childcare during the week, and Mum is generally at home most days.

This is a genuine hybrid role. We are not looking for someone who only wants to nanny or only wants to clean. We would love to find someone who enjoys working with children but is equally comfortable taking responsibility for keeping a busy family home clean, organised and running smoothly.

The Role

Children & Family

- School and childcare drop-offs and pick-ups
- Taking children to their regular extracurricular activities
- Caring for the children when required
- Preparing children's meals and snacks
- Helping with bags, uniforms and preparation for the following day
- Keeping children's bedrooms, play areas and belongings organised
- Assisting Mum with the children when everyone is home
- Providing additional support when our new baby arrives

Our children have a number of regular activities during the week, including basketball, coding, swimming, gymnastics, dancing, piano, chess and guitar, so helping with the logistics of a busy family schedule is an important part of the position.

Housekeeping

While the children are at school or childcare, the focus shifts primarily to the home, including:

- General household cleaning and tidying
- Laundry, folding and putting clothes away
- Changing and making beds
- Keeping wardrobes and household areas organised
- Kitchen cleaning and general upkeep
- Meal preparation
- Grocery shopping
- Household errands
- Keeping children's items, school bags and activity equipment organised
- General family assistance as required

Who We're Looking For

The right person will be:

- Warm, patient and confident with young children
- Genuinely comfortable with housekeeping and cleaning
- Reliable and punctual
- Highly organised
- Proactive and able to see what needs doing without always being asked
- Comfortable working alongside a parent who is often at home
- A confident and safe driver
- Looking for a stable, long-term position with one family

Previous nanny, housekeeping, family assistant or household-management experience would be highly regarded.

A driver's licence, Working With Children Check and strong references are required.

Hours & Remuneration

This is intended to be a full-time Monday–Friday position. We have some flexibility around the exact start and finish times for the right person.

Remuneration will be competitive and based on experience.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone we trust and get along with who would like to become a valued, long-term part of our family's routine.

If this sounds like the right position for you, please get in touch and tell us a little about yourself, your previous experience, your availability and what you're looking for in your next role.

We are seeking a caring, reliable, and engaging nanny/babysitter to assist with the care of our two- year-old daughter in a safe and nurturing home environment.

Feed meal-prepared foods and snacks according to her routine.
Clean and tidy her eating area after meals and snacks.
Assist with keeping toys, books, and play spaces organised and tidy after playtime.
Take her for walks and visits to the local park, ensuring her safety and wellbeing at all times.
Support her daily routine, including play, rest, and general care.
Provide a warm, patient, and attentive environment that encourages development and exploration.

The role would include helping with homework (reading and worksheets), organising afternoon tea and attending after school activities on a couple of days, maybe heading to the park to run off some energy or having a swim on other days (we have a pool). Some evenings you'd need to prepare him a simple dinner, but I'd leave this ready to go.
Also some occassional babysitting in the evenings if I have an event or dinner.
NB - we have two labradors - who are friendly, but the applicant would need to be comfortable with big dogs.

Position: Full Time Nanny/Housekeeper
Location: Lindfield, NSW
Hours: Monday to Friday, 7:45 AM – 5:45 PM (50 hours/week)
Timeline: We are looking for someone to stay with us long term
About the Family:
We are a busy family of five looking for an energetic, reliable, highly organised, and warm Nanny/Housekeeper to join our household long-term. We have three wonderful children: an 8-year-old (Year 2), a 6-year-old (Kindergarten), and a 3-year-old (who attends preschool 2 days a week).

The Role:
This role involves taking care of the children and housekeeping duties. It would suit someone who is proactive, highly organised, loves cooking and is comfortable switching between childcare and household management. Our 3 year old will transition to 3 days of preschool next year and then school the year after so we are looking for someone who is comfortable in both roles but wanting to transition to a Family Assistant role once all children are in school 5 days a week.

Core Childcare Duties:
• Full care and supervision of the children (including all 3 children during school holidays when we are not away)
• Driving family car for school and preschool drop-offs and afternoon pickups
• Driving children to extracurricular activities
• Supervising homework and reading routines
• Preparing and serving healthy meals (including stocking freezer with meals and lunchbox morning tea)

Housekeeping Duties:
• Weekly making beds and changing linen
• Laundry for the family including sheets and towels
• Weekly ironing for the household
• Grocery shopping and local errands. Cooking 1–2 large family meals per week
• Maintaining general tidiness of the household (eg packing/unpacking dishwasher) – we have a cleaner so no heavy cleaning required.

Please only apply if you meet the following:

• 10+ years experience in a similar Nanny-Housekeeper or Family Assistant role.
• Valid NSW Working with Children Check (WWCC).
• Current First Aid training certificate.
• NSW driver’s licence

Remuneration:

$45/hr + 12% superannuation + 5 weeks annual leave and 10 days sick leave. We offer 5 weeks paid leave as we will need you to use some of your annual leave when we take some leave each school holidays (other than where there are housekeeping duties to cover).

We’re looking for a warm, engaging and responsible nanny to help with our 4.5-year-old son.

Hours
• Wednesday–Friday: preschool pick-up at 2:30pm
• Potential for additional half-days on Mondays and Tuesdays

His preschool is only a 7–8 minute walk from our home, and we’re about a 7-minute walk from Lindfield Station, so a car isn’t essential.

At a minimum, we’re looking for someone to pick him up and bring him straight home, so this could suit someone local looking for a short afternoon role. We’re also very open to adding 1–2+ hours after pick-up for play, activities and helping him get ready for dinner.

I’ll generally be at home looking after our newborn, but may occasionally appreciate an extra pair of hands with the baby while I attend to our older son.

Essential
• Current WWCC
• Previous nannying/childcare experience
• Good references
• Reliable, responsible and safety-conscious
Bonus
• Early childhood education experience or qualifications

Please PM me if interested, with a little about yourself, your experience and availability. 😊
