Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in The Rocks NSW

Caring for 2 boys and light housework.

Looking for a warm & kind nanny for our baby girl one day per week to start, we would like someone who will be able to be with us long term. As our little girl grows we will require some more assistance. Our baby girl will be one at the end of September - she is cheeky & funny & very sweet.
We would like someone who has previous experience with young children, has references & WWCC & police check.

The role would involve looking after our baby girl whilst I am at work - timing can be flexible however start time would need to be from 8-9am and then be until 4-5pm.
Whilst she sleeps in the middle of the day (of course after you have a lunch break) some meal prep or light housework would be appreciated!
We would like someone who can take our little girl out to a pre arranged class/to the park and play with her at home.
We have two small poodles who will be at home too - they will be cared for by my father so they would just be around - both very friendly but you just have to supervise our baby girl with the dogs.

If this sounds like the role for you we look forward to hearing from you!
