- Putting the boys down for their lunchtime nap
- Taking the boys on walks or to the park
- Playing with the boys

What is required:
- WWCC
- Atleast one reference with experience looking after 2 toddlers at the same time
- First aid certificate
- Must be a non-smoker
- Early childhood education highly regarded but not essential

I also have a 3yo boy who will be there in the morning and afternoons after preschool, you won’t be required to look after him as either my husband or I will be home but he will be there for a short amount of time.

If you are available and this is of interest please send me a message with a bit about yourself and your experience.

Hi,

We are looking for a nanny for Monday and Tuesday for 7 weeks (our lovely nanny has to do her practical experience for her teaching degree). Following the 7 week period, we will likely need additional Ad Hoc or regular help, as I am currently 26 weeks pregnant with our third and going on maternity leave in September.

We have two children, a girl who is 18 months old (Florence) and a boy who is 4.5 years old (Bobby). Bobby is very active and enjoys going to the park and riding his bike. Bobby goes to preschool Monday and Tuesday. So we would need you to walk to pick him up (900m) and walk him home (with Florence in the pram) at 3:30. Start time would be 7:30 and we are home by 5:30/6. We are pretty relaxed and just want the kids to be happy and safe.

We live in Gladesville NSW.

Thanks
