Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Newtown QLD

Help needed between 7am - 9am to prepare school lunch and drop off at school (Yerongsa state high school and Junction Park State School). Family living in Acacia Ridge.

Approx 20hrs per week Nanny Needed!

We're a happy family with three beautiful children (6yr and 8yr old daughters & 10yr old son) - we've previously had a nanny in this same role so the children are well adjusted to additional help.

We're currently looking for a before school nanny with some additional evening/weekend/sleep-over work on occasion (all negotiable!)

We're looking for someone who is the following:
-Fun & Caring
-Reliable
-Excellent organisational skills
-Able to juggle the morning chores required to get three kids to school.
(aka making lunches, doing the girls' hair, supporting the school-age kids to get their belongings together, etc)
-A safe driver with a car for school drop offs when required
-Household duties such as laundry (with a washer/dryer set up, so mostly folding and putting away), tidying kitchen, keeping the kids room & playroom tidy, etc. (We do get a cleaner weekly, so it's only ever tidying or a quick vacuum, not full cleaning)
-Initiative to see potential help needed around the home and to provide that extra support as appropriate

A typical week may look like the following:
Monday - Tuesday 5:15am-8:30am (sometimes later)
Friday 6:30am-8:30am
**Some afternoons required on occasion (3:30-5:30)
*Some occasional night/weekend work as suits. Additional hours possible during school holidays.

We really care about our Nanny and will support you in this role as much as possible. This role would be ideal for a uni-student.

Our current nanny will provide a week's cross over to ease the right applicant into the role.

We are looking for a caring and reliable nanny to help look after our two boys.

About the children:
• Two boys, 3 years 9 months and 2 years 10 months
• Energetic, playful, and curious

Schedule:
Ideally 12:00pm – evening (around 8:00–9:00pm).
We are flexible and can discuss the exact hours.

Responsibilities:
• Spend time playing with the children at home
• Engage them in simple learning activities, such as:
• ABC
• Writing their names
• Counting from 1–20
• Reading books and doing fun educational activities
• Helping with a calm afternoon/evening routine

Additional help:
When the father is away, we may need help with school pick-up and drop-off, so being able to drive would be a big plus.
We can provide a car for school runs if needed.

We are looking for someone who is patient, nurturing, and experienced with young children, and who enjoys supporting early learning through play.

Location: Sunnybank, Brisbane

Hi.
My name is Tesha and im looking for an occasional babysitter for our little boy who is 9 (almost 10) months old. 1 yr in May.

We live in Croftby (about 1 hour 15 minutes outside Brisbane), and we also have an apartment at Tennyson in Brisbane.

I’m hoping to find someone available for occasional babysitting — sometimes to come along and assist with him at the event, and other times to watch him for an afternoon until evening.

We are a relaxed and friendly family of 3 that require someone who is educated and bubbly to help mind our Son with confidence.

We’re happy to pay for travel time, and can pay either cash or via bank transfer.

Please let me know if you’re interested and we can organise a time to talk further.

I’d love to arrange a meet in Brisbane one time to see if you are happy working with us and get to know each other.

Thank you in advance.
Tesha , Alastair and Lewis Macarthur

Hello,

We are a busy family looking for a nanny for our two children aged 8 and 7.

We live in Newstead and are looking for a nanny to care for our children both before and after school on weekdays (except Friday afternoon). Primary tasks include morning drop offs (transport only) and afternoon pick ups from a school in Tarragindi.

Afternoons are busy for our children and you would be required to take them to extra-curricular activities each afternoon before taking them home. A vehicle can be provided if required.

If you are someone with a driver’s licence, blue card and previous nannying experience, we are looking forward to meeting you.

Due to a shoulder injury, I am in need of help to look after my children and do basic house chores (hang out washing, fold washing, wash dishes etc).
My children are:
- 8 month old girl
- 4 year old girl
- 6 year old boy
I will continue to do as much as I can, but unfortunately am limited to what I can do.
Once recovery is done I would still appreciate the help in running every day life.
The hours which I am hoping to receive help are 8:30 - 2:30. I am open to changes and different options.
