I’m a single mum working in hospitality, looking for a dependable babysitter in Sydney for regular childcare support while my parents are overseas yearly.
Key details:
- Fridays: Pick up from Seaforth after-school care between 5-6pm, bring kids home, supervise shower time, assist with dinner if possible and homework. Finish time varies, occasionally late nights.
- Saturdays: Pick up from Crows Nest at 4pm, or meet at the house. Similar evening routine.
- Flexibility for occasional extra weeknights is ideal and day times if ever needed.
- My children (boy, 6, and girl, 9) are fun-loving and energetic!
- I need someone permanently based in Sydney who can be my go-to person for childcare support, though I do have other helpers, so flexibility is possible.
If you’re reliable and available, I’d love to hear from you.
Hello! We are a busy family of five from Lane Cove North. We have 3 kids (a 12 year old daughter, 10 year old son and 5 year old daughter) and are seeking an afternoon nanny 2-3 afternoons a week. We are an easy going family who enjoy company and activities. Our 12 year old and 10 year old are very capable but our 5 year old needs a little more help and attention.
Hours are 2.45pm - 7pm. However we can be a bit flexible with hours, and if you need to work more hours to make this job viable for you, we are happy to discuss options. Every second Thursday evening we would also ask you to please stay back to babysit until 9.30pm.
You will need a drivers licence and have a minimum of 2 years driving experience. The role will involve collecting the kids from school and/or the local bus stop. On some afternoons the kids have afternoon activities that you will need to help get them to and from. Otherwise, the role involves supervising the kids at home and preparing an easy dinner and helping to bath/shower our 5-year-old and get her ready for bed.
The job also involves light tidying up/keeping the house in order/putting on a load of washing and hanging out if you have some spare time. We have a regular cleaner so you are not expected to be a cleaner, just helping out to keep the household running:) Our kids do have their own chores (like unpacking the dishwasher, setting the table - and our 12 year old loves to help out with making dinner). However they do need reminding of their jobs and to tidy up after themselves - so you may need to help remind them:)
Pay negotiable depending on experience.
Sadly, our existing lovely nanny will be finishing up on 24 July.

Job Description:
We are seeking a reliable and caring babysitter to help with school drop-offs and pick-ups for our children. The ideal candidate will be responsible for ensuring the kids are ready for school, providing after-school care, and managing light household duties.
Key Responsibilities:
- Prepare children’s lunches and pack bags for school.

- Drop off our sons (ages 7 and 9) at school in Summer Hill.

- Assist with general housework, including dishes, laundry, and tidying up.
- Support children with their homework.

- Read storybooks and engage in interactive play with the children.
Qualifications:
- Must have a valid driver’s license and own a reliable car (travel costs will be covered).

**Compensation:** $30 per hour (cash)

We are looking for a regular weekly nanny to sleep over twice a week (on Wed and Sat night) at a lovely, modern, secure unit in Killara to care for 2 well-behaved children aged 7 (boy) and 9 (nearly 10) (girl).
The job is regular and ongoing every week and entails:
- collecting the kids from school in Killara (5min away) every Wed by 5pm, getting them to bed, bath/homework etc., sleeping over, and taking them back to school on a Thursday by 8am.
- Caring for the children on a Saturday night from 5pm overnight until Sunday 2pm.
- Some light housekeeping/tidying up as needed. We would expect you to take initiative to keep the unit clean and tidy while you are there, put washing in the machine, tidy kids toys, take rubbish outside to the bins, make sure the kitchen / bedrooms are tidy, a quick vacuum on a Sunday morning etc.
Total weekly payment is a fixed amount of $600, paid every Monday.
This is based on an hourly rate of $30 for working hours and a flat $90 rate for overnight where you will have no responsibilities and can just sleep/work/study/netflix/relax etc. once the kids are in bed. This works out at $210 for Wed nights and $390 for Sat nights.
The days/hours would be regular and ongoing and generally not change although there may occasionally be some flexibility needed depending on the week or during school holidays, Xmas time etc. There will also be an opportunity for additional ad-hoc babysitting hours / school pick-ups/drop-offs at other times during the week (if you are available) at the hourly rate.
Bedtime is 730pm and they should usually be asleep well before 830pm, so you would usually have no duties at all overnight. If they happen to stay up a bit later or are unsettled / sick on any particular night (which seldom happens so would be exceptional) then that is part and parcel of the job and included in the weekly rate. Equally if we get home early or you need to leave early in exceptional circumstances, then we will also be flexible and there will be no reduction to the weekly rate.
You need to be reliable, mature, responsible, and you must have your own car. A positive outlook, willingness to engage with, put effort in, and build trust with the kids is essential. No boyfriends / partners or other visitors may be in the unit when you are caring for the kids.
You will find us easy to work with, flexible and grateful for your help. In return, we’d ask for the same.
An immediate start is preferred with an initial trial of a few nights required to make sure you're a good fit with the kids and vice versa !
If that sounds like something that would suit you, we'd love to hear from you!
