Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Lower Northern Sydney, NSW

Hi we are (probably) looking for 2 different babysitters who can help us care for our 2 children (mostly our 4 year old son).
We are looking for someone who can regularly help on weekends-regular Sunday afternoons and occasional Saturday nights and also someone who can fill our gap in the weekdays when our au pair leaves, before the new one arrives. It might need to be 2 different babysitters.
We have a 4 year old son and a 11 year old daughter. There will be some housework tasks included as well as having fun! We are looking for someone who is respectful, reliable & nurturing.

Hello! We have just moved to Sydney from London and have two girls, a 6 and a 1.8 year old.
We are looking for a wonderful, trustworthy, friendly babysitter for the evening of June 4 (Thursday). We have an event that both of us would really like to attend, but will of course need someone to care for our girls.
As we are new here, we don't know any babysitters yet and are hoping to find someone we feel really happy about and the girls enjoy being with. We would like to meet you in person by next week to see how the dynamic works and make sure our girls meet you before we go to the event on the 4th.
The little one is very attached to me (mum) so will probably be a little bit sensitive for sleep time but having her sister here will help. If you'd like to know more or are interested send me a message.
Thank you! Jess
*We would really value parent references

We are looking for a new nanny who is available 1pm-7pm weekdays to help our busy family with 2 awesome and well behaved kids (girl, 9 and boy, 8) manage the afternoons/early evenings.

Hello, I'm Michelle and I'm looking for a new nanny for our 3 boys (9,12, 16years old) as our current nanny is finishing up. We are looking for afternoons (2:30-6:30pm) Tuesday to Friday. Our youngest needs picking up from school sports, taking him to swimming lessons, and support with homework. The elder boys don't need a lot apart from a lift to/from afternoon sports training on some days. All these will only be short trips. With 3 hungry boys you will need to like cooking :)

✨ 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.

We are a warm and welcoming family of four seeking a caring and reliable nanny on a casual basis. We have a fun-loving 6-year-old and an active 10-month-old, and are looking for someone who genuinely enjoys working with children of different ages.

The role includes supervising playtime, supporting daily routines, and occasional help with meals or settling. We value kindness, patience, and dependability, and hope to find someone who can become a trusted part of our family.

Pay ranges from $25–$28 per hour, depending on experience. We’d love to hear from you.
