Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Lane Cove North NSW

We’re looking for an experienced nanny to care for our 2 year old twin boys 9am-12pm every Friday. I will be working from home, so will need the boys to be entertained in our playroom, taken to the park and given their snacks/ lunch.
Preferably looking for someone with early education experience and looking after multiple children at once.
Job to start from Friday 5th June but will hold trials earlier than this.

We are seeking a permanent nanny to care for our two children starting in March 2026 (ASAP).
Both kids are at school Mon-Friday. Based on this, we will need you for 25-30 hours every week. Job involves: morning drop-off and evening pick-up, Meal preparation, light home chores. Additionally, we will appreciate your help during the holiday period. Although the total number of hours will vary, we will work with you a week in advance to ensure complete transparency and clear communication regarding your hours.

We’re a friendly family looking for a reliable and caring babysitter to help us during school terms. The role involves picking up our son from school in Edgecliff and our daughter from daycare in St Leonards and bringing them home to Riverview, so having your own car is essential.
Dinner will be easy - meals will be prepared in advance and ready for you to heat and serve. After that, it’s all about spending time with the kids: reading stories, homework, playing in the backyard, or getting creative from pick up at 2:30 to 6pm. We’re looking for someone who enjoys engaging with children and can create a calm, fun afternoon routine.

We are a family based in Lindfield looking for a reliable and caring nanny for our 6-year-old daughter (Year 1). The role involves school pick-up from Bondi Junction to Lindfield. supervising homework, helping her build good routines and time management skills, and providing a calm and structured afternoon environment.

Occasionally, we would appreciate assistance with preparing a simple dinner for her and preparing her lunchbox for the next day (for her only).

We are looking for someone responsible, organised, and warm, who genuinely enjoys working with primary school-aged children.

✨ Nanny / House Manager – North Willoughby (Part-Time, Long-Term)

We are a family based in North Willoughby looking for an experienced nanny / house manager to support the smooth day-to-day running of our home.

We have one daughter (22 months old) and a friendly, medium-sized non-shedding dog. Our daughter attends daycare part-time, and we are flexible with her schedule to suit the right candidate.

This is a household management–focused role, ideal for someone who enjoys running an organised, efficient home and takes pride in maintaining a consistently high standard.

We have weekly cleaners, so no deep cleaning is required. Instead, we are looking for someone who can take ownership of the “in-between” tasks that keep everything running seamlessly—no job is too small.

Responsibilities include:
• Laundry, tidying, and maintaining a well-organised home
• Daily upkeep of key living areas (kitchen, living room, hallways, and play areas), including wiping down benchtops, countertops, tables, and keeping surfaces consistently clean and reset
• Grocery shopping and keeping household supplies stocked
• Managing and restocking items before they run out (e.g. dish soap, pantry items, baby supplies)
• Light food prep (e.g. boiling pasta, defrosting protein, making rice, chopping vegetables)
• Preparing and organising toddler meals
• Keeping daycare bag, pram bag, and car kit consistently stocked and ready
• Taking out garbage and general household upkeep
• Organising drawers, cupboards, wardrobes, and storage
• Running errands (groceries, returns, post office, etc.)
• Receiving deliveries and keeping the household running smoothly
• Maintaining a clean and safe outdoor space, including promptly picking up after the dog in the backyard if needed to ensure it remains suitable for a child to play in

We have a dog walker, however the candidate must be comfortable being around dogs and taking responsibility for maintaining a clean environment where needed.

This list is not exhaustive. Once core tasks are complete, there will always be opportunities to further organise, reset, or improve areas of the home, and we may also provide direction for additional tasks on quieter days.

The goal of this role is to keep the household running efficiently and proactively, allowing mum—who is often home—to focus on spending quality time with her daughter rather than managing house admin.

When our daughter is home, we are looking for someone warm, engaging, and confident with toddlers. However, this is not a role that is purely childcare-focused.

We are looking for someone who is:
• Proactive and takes initiative
• Highly organised and detail-oriented
• Comfortable working independently and taking ownership
• Reliable and looking for a long-term role
• Professional during working hours, with minimal personal phone use

Position details:
• Part-time (days flexible for the right candidate)
• Long-term role
• Competitive hourly rate based on experience

If this sounds like a good fit, please DM me directly with your experience and availability—we’d love to hear from you.

Our kids are older: 16 (girl), 14 (girl) and 12 (boy). We are looking for someone who can help us Monday - Friday in the afternoons through to the evenings with some flex for extra hours.

We need help with managing the household in the afternoons, be home in the afternoon when the kids get home (or on some days pick up from school), preparing afternoon snack, overseeing homework for 12 yo and taking kids to and from afternoon/evening activities (requires a confident driver - we have a car for you to use) making lunchboxes for the next day, as well as help with laundry and some other errands (eg pick up dry cleaning, bread, milk etc).

👦 Meet Leo

22 months old. Vocabulary exploding. Fearlessly physical. Pretend play just clicked. Boundary-testing very much underway.

Daycare gives him the group, the noise, the social energy. Your two days are the counterpoint - slower, deeper, one-on-one. Both matter. They just do different things.

We're not looking for someone to get through the day with him.

We're looking for someone who drives it.

◈ You see the potential in ordinary moments

◈ You arrive with a sense of where he's at and what he's ready for

◈ You're outside every day - because you want to be, not because we asked

◈ A meltdown over the wrong cup doesn't rattle you

◈ You're confident working independently - we're home, but not hovering

Hello Sitters!

We are a family of four in Surry Hills, right near buzzing Crown Street and the lightrail stop. I’m on maternity leave and my partner currently works/studies long hours. Our two lovely kids are a 2.5 year old toddler and our new baby, almost 3 months old!

Your role: to help me with the home and kids while my partner is at work - a regular 2 weekdays, approximately 5.30/6pm to 9/9.30pm. Flexibility is valued as this could turn into the odd extra ad hoc day, or extra hours on the weekend from time to time, particularly if you also had housekeeping / home management skills. Duties would be variable, mainly involving helping with our evening routine (play, dinner, bath, bedtime), perhaps keeping the toddler occupied while I settle the baby. When our toddler goes to bed, I would go with him while you take the baby (ideally you would be comfortable with her in a baby carrier).

A light tidy up and reset at the end of the evening is part of the role: putting away toys, wipe down of surfaces, occasionally putting the kids clothes away, loading the dishwasher.

It’s important that you don’t mind dogs as we have a large, friendly (non shedding) groodle who is inside and part of the family! If the kids are sorted, you could take him outside for a quick walk before you go.

If all of this suits, would be lovely to meet. Let me know if you have any questions.
