o Preparing his afternoon tea and snacks.
o Transporting him to and from the occasional after-school activities (e.g., speech therapy).
• Additional support (negotiable):
o Occasional meal preparation, considering Hugo’s dietary requirements.
o School holiday support (negotiable, ideally 10 AM - 3 PM, four days a week): Additional care and study support during school holidays, schedule to be agreed upon in advance
Ideal Candidate:
• Experience with and empathy for working children who require extra support, demonstrating a disciplined and creative approach to targeted academic assistance.
• Energetic, caring, and enthusiastic, with a genuine enjoyment of spending time with teenagers.
• Strong tutoring skills and understanding of the curriculum, particularly in Year 10 maths, science, English, and commerce.
• Ability to provide consistent and firm, yet supportive guidance.
• Valid driver's license and access to a reliable vehicle (we can provide our automatic car, or you can use your own).
• Valid Working with Children Check.

Start Date: 1 May (including several months training/handover period with Hugo’s current helper).
Compensation: We offer flexibility in hours and are willing to discuss a competitive compensation package commensurate with experience.
If you are a compassionate and skilled individual passionate about helping teenagers thrive, we encourage you to apply. This is a chance to make a tangible difference in Hugo's life and be a part of his growth and development.
We are a doctor couple with a two and a half year old boy and another boy due to be born in late June. We have recently moved to Clovelly and are looking for someone to help with care of both boys on weekday afternoon/evenings.

We are looking for a part-time nanny to assist in caring for our beautiful son. He is turning 2 years old at the end of May, and he is a kind, curious, and active little boy.

We would love to welcome a nanny into our family to spend time with him and engage with him in indoor and outdoor play, healthy food/cooking, and language development.
We are a professional family who value kindness, creativity, and adventure. We also have a newborn daughter who is being looked after by me full-time this year whilst I am on maternity leave.

We’re a fun-loving, energetic family of five with three wild and wonderful boys, all under the age of 8!

Each of us finds joy in different ways—whether it’s a content household, a tidy space, or full tummies and giggles all around. We’re looking for someone who’s warm, playful, organised, and confident navigating the fun and chaos of a busy young family. If you love kids, can go with the flow, and enjoy being part of a team, we’d love to welcome you into our world!
