Hi there,

I’m a single mother to a bright, energetic and sassy little girl and a cute fur baby (a gentle cuddly cavalier).

I am returning to full time work as a shift worker and looking for someone to care for my daughter from 3pm to possibly 9 or 10pm on Mondays and Wednesdays each fortnight (possibly more days).

It would involve school pick up, swim class, and home bath/bed routine. Some help with light house work, meal prep and dog walking would be highly desirable to help lighten the load.

My daughter is emotionally sensitive and needs a consistent and attuned carer to help establish trust and assist with this transition for her.

She also has asthma and requires puffer medication. Knowledge of asthma and asthma first aid is required (or willingness to obtain).

We’re a warm, busy family looking for an energetic, caring nanny/educator to join us 2–3 days a week for our two little loves (10 months and 3 years).We are flexible on days, but need 7:45am - 5:45pm. We’d love someone creative and proactive who enjoys adventures, library trips, sensory play and fun learning activities. Alongside caring for the kids, we’d appreciate help with children’s meals (including dinner ready by 5:30pm), kids’ laundry, tidying bedrooms daily and changing kids’ linens weekly. We’re looking for someone nurturing, reliable and genuinely excited to become part of our family rhythm!

We’re a family based in Redfern looking for a warm, engaged nanny/babysitter to help care for our son. He’s currently 6 months old and will be around 12 months old when the regular role begins in August.

I’m currently on parental leave, so for now we’re looking for ad-hoc babysitting, with the plan to move to a regular role of 3–5 days per week from 10am until 3/4pm, starting mid-August when I return to work. Ideally we’re hoping to find someone who would like to be with our family long term.

About the role:
• Caring for for our son
• Being present and engaged -singing, reading, playing and supporting his development
• Taking him out to activities such as swimming lessons, baby sensory classes, and walks
• Preparing simple baby meals and light baby-related tidying
• Light household help such as folding laundry, unpacking the dishwasher, and general tidying

We do have a cleaner, so we’re just looking for someone happy to help with small day-to-day tasks rather than deep cleaning.

I’ll also be working from home some days, so I’ll occasionally be around the house.

About our home:
• Located in Redfern
• We have two friendly cats, so you’ll need to be comfortable with pets

About us:
I’m an IP lawyer and my husband runs a music company. We love travel and would ideally find someone who might be open to travelling with us from time to time. We’re a pretty relaxed household and enjoy things like games, trivia and music, and I also love Pilates & art.

I used to be a nanny myself for a number of years, so I really get what the job’s like. I know how much energy and care it takes, and how important it is to feel trusted and appreciated. We’re just looking for someone who’ll feel comfortable and part of the family.

About you:
• Warm, reliable and attentive
• Enjoys engaging with babies and supporting their development
• Comfortable taking a baby out to local activities
• Happy to help with light household tasks
• Interested in a longer-term role

If this sounds like a good fit, we’d love to hear from you. Please send a message with a little about yourself and your experience. 😊

I am a single mother to 11yo twin girls and a large overly friendly groodle called Ringo. We live in Randwick. And I could do with some help!

I am not looking for help for a full day it will be part thereof but it is mainly daytime and some afterschool hours. Hours are flexible but likely around 15 - 20hrs/wk.

**Please note that the hours posted on this job are not necessarily the specific ones I am looking for, just the site doesn't give me much flexibility with what I can tick. And our weekly schedule can be quite fluid and is definitely term based (we def have less need during the school holidays).

One of my girls is currently homeschooling and I sometimes need assistance during the day to get her to activities or to be with her at home. You will need your drivers licence and be comfortable driving a large car (volvo xc90).

I am also looking for someone who is up for helping with helping to keep us all organised!

And also willing to help with some cooking (ideally with the girls involvement).

And if you are also up for helping with some laundry and changing beds then you will be the answer to my dreams!

And sometimes I manage to make it out by myself in the evening so there might be some babysitting needs also!

I hope to hear from you if you can help!

My partner is anxious about leaving Elara (to be expected), we hope to find someone we can trust and connect with who can be an integral part of our early journey in parenthood.
