Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Kensington NSW

We are looking for an experienced babysitter for our two lively and sweet girls - ages five and two.
Thursday evenings and every second Saturday afternoon/evening with extra Saturdays as needed so dad and mum can have some fun going out to dinner.
Our kids are easygoing and used to being babysat.

Looking for a babysitter for my two easy going boys 10 & 13 years old from 4pm to midnight on Saturday 8th November 2025.
13 year old will look after himself. 10 year old likes people who will play games and watch a movie with him.

Our son is a funny, highly intelligent and warm hearted teenager who experiences daily challenges due to his ASD and ADHD diagnosis. He is highly verbal and often enjoys in depth conversations. He can at times become highly anxious and requires support to manage his concerns. He has no physical disabilities. Essentially, our son requires help with daily organisation, meal preparation and outdoor activities. He attends school via correspondence and needs assistance and supervision when logging on for exams.

Our son is a fussy eater who is working towards independence when making meals, therefore meal preparation is required as well as teaching our son how to cook his own food. Daily exercise is critical, however he often resists this and so a supportive approach is best here.

Household cleaning will be required such as cleaning dishes from the day, putting out a load of washing, ensuring our son's room is tidy etc. At the end of the day, the living area of the home needs to be left tidy.

Candidates must have an interest in working with neurodiverse teenagers. This role requires someone who is patient, kind and genuinely enjoys the company of teenagers. This role suits someone who has previous experience working with neurodivergent teenagers.

Working with Children check and a Police check is a requirement.

We’re a busy, active, funny and honest family of 5 humans and 1 big dog. We are looking for an active, fun, reliable, tidy and responsible au pair, who has common sense and initiative, to join our household to help us keep the family running. The role involves at least 3 afternoons a week, of school pick up, homework, dinner, bath, bed, for 3 kids; and ad hoc help with housework. Au pair’s quarters are a separate granny flat, away from main house, lockable, with own bathroom. 10-12 hours work (open for negotiation) in return for board and utilities, and hourly rate for work in addition (there is at least an additional 7 hours). Would be great if au pair has own car (stipend for petrol / insurance can be discussed), but at the very least, au pair must drive as driving is required everyday. House located near main shopping and transport hub in Eastern suburbs, as well as parks.
Must provide CV and at least 2 referees able to talk to the parents by phone (Equally, our prior nannies would be happy to talk by phone to confirm we’re good people!). Children are VERY active and the family needs someone with great-happy-upbeat energy - love of soccer also a plus :-) Parents are very involved, so you won’t be “running the show” on your own - its mainly to fill a gap while parents work and help when kids’ activities are in different directions and more than one grown up needed. Thanks for reading and looking forward to hearing from you if you genuinely feel you are right for this role. Best regards

We're a family looking for a caring, reliable and proactive nanny to join us and help care for our sweet and happy 8 month old, as well as our clever chatty 3 year old.

Hours:
4-4.5 days a week (Mon, Tues, Weds, Thurs - plus a few hours on Friday if desired)
8am-5.45pm Mon-Thurs (you will be with the baby across all 4 days, and will also look after our toddler in the late afternoons)
We're open to flexibility and potentially engaging two nannies if there is a desire to work less than 4 days
Start date: We are looking for care from January and can be somewhat flexible on the start date

What we're looking for:
Someone who brings warmth, initiative and a genuine love of working with children. We value a calm, structured approach - especially for our baby who is on a nap schedule - so experience with baby sleep routines is ideal. It is very important that this person is punctual as my husband and I often have meetings in the morning and have to leave on time.

We are also looking for someone who also has flexibility around night times as we can have work events in the evening.

We'd love someone who is happy to prepare healthy meals and snacks for the children, keep things tidy and pitch in with light household chores (e.g dishes, folding and laundry) when the children are napping or playing independently. We want someone who is happy to lend a hand around the home during nap times (rather than just scrolling or waiting for time to pass - initiative is important to us!)

We're close to the beach and parks, and there is easy street parking and great public transport access. We're also very open to ideas for outings and activities - local libraries, playgrounds, museums, shows, baby sensory, Play studio - and of course happy to cover any reasonable costs for fun, enriching experiences you'd like to try with the kids. We have a strict no TV policy and prefer to minimise phone usage around our children.

We also have a dog so you need to be comfortable with pets.

Must have:
* Experience with babies under 12 months
* WWCC
* Long term availability (ideally 1-2 years)
* Child related qualifications preferred (but not essential)

Rate is negotiable for the right person - we truly value great care and want this to be a wonderful fit for both sides.

Hi there, we are looking for an after school nanny 5 days per week in Balmain for our 10 year old twins. Hours will have some flex around 3-7pm Monday to Friday for a total of around 20 hours per week plus occasional babysitting to be agreed in advance. Duties include collection from school bus, meal preparation, homework supervision, kids laundry, dog walking, reading, tidying up, organising uniforms, bags etc for the next day and playtime. Please note that we have a cleaner each week.

We are looking for a loving, organised and enthusiastic nanny to join our family.
.
Our children are G8, B6 & B4. The older children are at school locally and our youngest attends preschool part-time. We also have an elderly dog.

Care responsibilities would be full days on Thursday and Fridays for our youngest with school drop off and pick ups for the older two.
Tuesday and Wednesday care requirements can be negotiable, preschool/school pickups (from 2pm) being the priority, however we would love some help in the morning (7-10ish) if you are available. For the right candidate we can offer additional hours during the day when the kids are at school to help keep things ticking over at home. Preference would be for someone who can do all four days.

Our work rosters are variable so we generally structure your working week around that. We guarantee a set number of hours per fortnight and provide you with a roster a month in advance. We can work around university rosters to a degree, and with notice can be somewhat flexible with timetable changes.

A car is not required, however it would be helpful if you can drive. A family car is available for use. This is not essential though as all the kids after school activities are local or accessible via a short bus ride.

We are an experienced nanny family and are sadly farewelling our current nanny as she returns home overseas. She is happy to provide a family reference.

I look forward to hearing from you.

We are looking for a responsible, caring and trustworthy nanny to provide casual babysitting for my son who is 6 years old. This is on most mornings. Plus Monday Thursday and Friday evening.

The mornings generally start at 7am, involve getting them ready for school, packing their lunch, and then bringing them to school. We would like someone with a car, license and an a confident driver. School is a very short 3 min drive away.

Evening hours generally start from about 3pm to 5pm, which involves picking them up from school and taking them home from school .

If this is something of interest to you, please get in touch with us. Even if it’s on certain days. We look forward to meeting you.

Our wonderful nanny, who has been with us for 2.5 years, is finishing her nursing degree this year and we’re looking for someone to take over from her.

We have 4 kids (~11/8/7/2) and are located on the boarder of Ashfield and Summer Hill. The morning (~ 7-9am) routine involves supervising them getting their breakfast, helping them get dressed and ready for school, and driving/walking them to school. In the afternoons (~ 3-6:30/7pm) it’s school pickup, afternoon activities (e.g. ferrying the kids to activities or taking them for a play at the park), dinner prep and supervising bath time. One of us will make it home from work before the bed time routine starts.
We would prefer someone with prior nannying experience, but more importantly we need someone who is responsible, reliable, and is happy to take initiative. Most importantly we’d like for you to engage with the kids and be able to ride the wave of the occasional chaos that is created by four loud, confident (and fiercely independent) kids! It’s (mostly) lots of fun!!

Flexibility with days and finish/start times is appreciated - the shifts can change a little from week to week (depending on my roster). We are also willing to work around you too if you need (with placements, exams, family commitments etc.) There is also opportunity to do 1 or 2 long days/week to stay at home with our littlest of that works for you.

Flexible start date - could be as early as Oct 2025, but definitely by Jan 2026.

We look forward to hearing from you!
