Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Sylvania Waters NSW

Hello!

We’re a warm, active family looking for a kind, capable nanny / house manager / dog minder to support our weekday routine and become a trusted part of our family life. We have two lovely kids — a daughter (8) and a son (10.5) — who enjoy playing together, spending time with friends, and are generally easygoing and well-mannered.

We are open to live out or live in - we have a granny flat which is separate from the house and has an attached patio.

We’re looking for help Monday–Friday from 3–7pm, plus Wednesday and Thursday mornings from 7–9am, with the possibility of additional hours if of interest.

Both parents work, and this role is about helping keep afternoons and mornings running smoothly. Responsibilities include:

• School drop off and pick ups, caring for the kids and supporting after-school routines
• Helping with dinner, light tidying, dishes and washing (we have cleaners)
• Walking our medium-sized dog, who is friendly and energetic and enjoys a good walk
• Occasional errands (post office, dry cleaning, small grocery runs)

We’re looking for someone kind, reliable, and practical who enjoys being helpful and takes pride in showing up consistently. This isn’t a short-term or casual role for us, but an important, trusted position within our family. We’re hoping to find someone looking for a meaningful, longer-term role who would enjoy settling into a familiar routine with us.

Start date is flexible :)

We’d love to hear from you.

Hello All,
We are a French/Australian family living in Bronte with 3 girls aged 13, 11 and 7, looking for a part-time babysitter, hoping to build a long-term connection.
Our needs are 2 afternoons/week, from around 3 to 5.30-6 pm, ideally Tuesdays and Wednesdays but we can be flexible. You'd need to pick up the youngest from school in Bondi junction, come home and play, and then drop off the middle one at sports. You'll need a car. There will be sometimes an occasional night out if you’re interested, about 2 evenings/month during the weekend. We’re looking for someone reliable, who enjoys being around kids, and can build a nice relationship with them.
Thanks, Laetitia

My wife and I are looking for someone for 2 days a week to care for:

- our 20 month old girl from 9 - 5 and
- our 5yo boy (whose in school) from 2:30 - 5pm
- plus light house duties like preparing kids meals/snacks, tidying up kids dishes, packing away toys before end of day and emptying dishwasher or folding/putting away clothes during nap times (where possible).

We're based in Paddington and looking for someone to start as soon as possible as my wife has just returned to work a few days a week post maternity leave.

We’re a fairly easy-going family. My wife, Alana, and I often work from home (upstairs). Top priorities for us are having someone warm, nurturing, patient, attentive and attuned to the kids. Would be good to have a drivers licence and feel comfortable driving the kids in our car. WWCC & references. We figure everything else can flow from there 😀
