🌴 Job Opportunity: Native English or Spanish Teacher – One Year in Florianópolis, Brazil
Imagine spending a year living by the beach on one of the most beautiful islands in the world, while making a real difference in the lives of two wonderful children.
The role:
We’re looking for a native English or Spanish speaker to provide bilingual home-based education for our two children, ages 5 and 6. They are sweet, curious, and exceptionally bright. We’d love someone who blends teaching with warmth, bringing the language to life through play, stories, music, nature, and everyday activities.
What we offer
∙ Free accommodation in a newly renovated studio on the beach, close to our home
∙ A competitive salary, to be discussed
∙ A genuine cultural immersion, with the support of a welcoming family
About Florianópolis
Known as the “Ilha da Magia” (Island of Magic), Florianópolis is the capital of Santa Catarina in southern Brazil. The island has more than 40 beaches, from calm turquoise bays to world-class surf spots. You’ll also find lagoons, sand dunes, Atlantic Forest trails, and charming fishing villages with Azorean heritage.
It consistently ranks among Brazil’s cities with the highest quality of life. It is safe by Brazilian standards and has a thriving international community of digital nomads, surfers, and expats. The food scene is fantastic, especially the oysters, which are among the best in the country. From June to November, southern right whales visit the coast.
Why a year in Brazil?
Living abroad for a year is about more than adding a line to your CV. It’s a life-changing experience. Brazil is warm, joyful, and full of life, with music, festivals, football, and a culture built around connection and hospitality. You’ll become fluent in Portuguese, form lasting friendships, and see the world, and yourself, through a new lens. Employers and universities increasingly value this kind of intercultural experience, adaptability, and independence.
Who we’re looking for
∙ Native English or Spanish speaker
∙ Experience with early childhood education (preferred)
∙ Patient, creative, responsible, and loves children
∙ Able to commit to one year

Looking for a nanny for my toddler as I work full time. Must have some childcare experience.

Help with feeding and watching him during the day.

We are looking for an experienced, enthusiastic, kind and energetic part time nanny to care for our 18 month old, 3 days per week (Mon-Wed). We would love our nanny to be an extension of the family and to be able to help with light duties around the house including cooking/meal prep for the family.

I’m looking for a warm, reliable and experienced part-time nanny for my two boys, aged 7 and 4, in Fitzroy North.

My older son has autism and ADHD, so I’m particularly keen to find someone with genuine hands-on experience supporting neurodivergent children. It would be wonderful to find someone who understands sensory needs, emotional regulation and transitions, and can provide calm, consistent and positive support.

The role involves caring for both boys, with additional support for my older son, and helping create a settled, enjoyable routine for the children. I’m hoping to find someone who would like to become a trusted, long-term part of our family. It would start with weekend work and hopefully move to after school and school holiday care from term 1 next year.

I’m open to a nanny with a background in early childhood education, disability support or professional nannying, provided they have relevant experience and a warm, neurodiversity-affirming approach.

We have an approximate budget of $35–$45 per hour, depending on experience and the arrangement.

Looking for a fun, reliable, creative, hardworking and honest babysitter for afternoon school pick ups, to engage and play with our 9 year old daughter or take to specialist classes - Ballet, Basketball, Swimming.

I am looking for a caring and reliable babysitter for my 8-year-old daughter, who has travelled the world, and is very sophisticated for her age. She is also at times very strong headed. So, a babysitter in 20’s range, in my opinion, always works best for her, as she relates better to this age group.

Looking for somebody to start ASAP, which can involve picking daughter up from Fitzroy North Primary or her extracurricular classes, when she finishes and watching her during the evening. Looking for somebody to begin next week, and for afternoons/evenings concentrated from mid Oct through Nov 5th. This role is more flexible rather than on a fixed schedule.

Must have experience, and references that can be provided, and preferably close by to Fitzroy where we currently live. Pls respond with availability. Happy to arrange a paid trial first.

Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you.

We have a 10 year old, very easy going kid. Looking for a casual babysitter with good experience and references to keep them entertained and safe while my partner and I (both academics) have an occasional evening out. Short notice, but hoping to try this out tonight 3-9pm

Hi! We are looking for a babysitter to look after our 5 year old during the week in January (4th to 29th) whilst we are working. He currently goes to kinder but that will finish in December. He starts school in Feb. He is a cheeky active boy who is independent with everything (toileting, feeding etc). We need Monday 9am- 4pm covered as we’re both at work. Tuesday-Thursday will be half days when my husband works from home.

We are a warm, busy family in South Melbourne looking for an experienced and reliable nanny to join our family and share a regular weekly roster caring for our two children, aged 2 and 5.

We have been fortunate to have wonderful, long-term relationships with our nannies and really value having people in our children’s lives who become trusted and familiar members of our family. With one of our current nannies finishing with us in December, we are starting our search now for the right people to join us longer term.

While the permanent roster will commence from December 2026, there is plenty of opportunity to start sooner. We have availability from late Oct ongoing. This means there will be opportunities over the coming months to work with our family, get to know the children and see whether we are a good fit for each other before moving into a regular long-term arrangement.

We are looking to cover afternoon shifts across Tuesday and Wednesday and a full day Thursday

Afternoons | approximately 3:30pm–7:00pm
School/daycare pick-ups, play or activities, dinner, baths and helping with the evening routine.

Thursdays | full-day shift (approximately 7:00am–6:30pm)

There are also regular opportunities for additional casual hours, particularly evenings and weekends, and potentially opportunities to travel with our family from time to time.

The person we’re looking for:

Our priority is finding people who are genuinely interested in building a relationship with our children and becoming a trusted part of our family’s life over time.

We are looking for someone who is:

* Experienced and confident caring for toddlers and young children
* Warm, patient and genuinely engaged with children
* Calm and emotionally attuned, particularly around big feelings, boundaries and age-appropriate challenging behaviour
* Reliable and punctual
* Independent and able to take initiative without needing constant direction
* Organised, clean and respectful of our home
* Comfortable managing school/daycare drop-offs and pick-ups
* Flexible where possible, while also communicating clearly about their own availability
* Interested in a stable, long-term role with a family

A driver’s licence and confidence driving children would be highly regarded.

We place a lot of value on mutual respect, communication and reliability. We have been very lucky to have long-standing relationships with our nannies and want the people who work with us to feel valued and well looked after. In return, we are looking for the same level of care, reliability and respect for our family.
