Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Lower Hermitage SA

Hi,

My wife and I are looking for some help caring for our 15-month-old daughter, Aria.

Aria is our only child, and my wife is currently pregnant, so we’re hoping to find someone reliable, caring, and experienced who can help babysit Aria at our home.

At this stage, we’re thinking around 3 days per week. The main hours would likely be approximately 8am to 11am, helping play with Aria, keeping her engaged, and feeding her breakfast. We're flexible with the days and happy to work around your commitments.

Aria usually wakes around 8am and has her first nap from around 11am to 1pm. She is still breastfed, so my wife would usually feed her and put her down for her nap.

Mum and Dad will be home at times, but we’ll likely be popping in and out of the house depending on work and errands.

We’d also be looking for some light help around the house when Aria is sleeping on some days, such as stacking the dishwasher, hanging out clothes, and other basic household tasks.

We may also need some help during the afternoon on certain days in between her naps, to allow my wife to head out and run errands. This would likely be around 1–2 days per week, from approximately 1pm to 4pm.

Could you please let me know:
- Your location
- Whether this type of arrangement would suit you
- Your availability during the week at these times
- Your experience with toddlers around Aria’s age

We’re based in Valley View, and we’re hoping to find someone who would be a good fit for our family.

Thanks and looking forward to hearing from you.

Nick, Katie & Aria :)

We are looking for a warm, nurturing, and patient nanny to spend time with our daughter, who is 2 years and 3 months old. She is a bubbly, curious, and adventurous little girl who loves exploring, creating, and learning through play.

Our family values the Montessori and Steiner approaches to early childhood education, so we would love to find someone who shares a similar philosophy and enjoys fostering creativity, independence, and a connection with nature.

The role is approximately 5–6 hours per week, with availability needed on Monday afternoons and Thursday mornings. Mum will be at home studying during these hours.

Responsibilities include:
• Engaging in playful, child-led activities
• Arts and crafts, including painting and drawing

• Creating fun and enriching indoor and outdoor experiences
• Occasional light meal and lunchbox preparation

We are hoping to find someone who feels like a natural extension of our family and is looking to build a long-term relationship with us. While the role currently offers 5–6 hours per week, there may be opportunities for additional hours in the future as our family's needs grow.

We would love to hear from someone who genuinely enjoys working with young children, brings a calm and positive presence, and can create a warm, engaging environment where our daughter can thrive.
