Hi there,
Hope you are well. I am looking for a part time nanny/sitter who is great with kids and a small dog :)
The babysitter will be working side-by-side with me for the morning and evening routine and will not be on their own as I have a 1 year old and an infant.
I live in South Yarra so we have access to all public transport within minutes, restaurants, CBD, etc. You will also have access to pool, hot tub/jacuzzi, steam room, sauna, gym facilities should you wish to do so before or after work.
I have a 1 year old and if you do not have experience that is okay as I train people how to work with kids and babies as a living.
Duties will include playing with baby, tidying up toys, diaper changes, meal prep, tidying up, cleaning bottles, walking dog. I typically do the feed, bath and bed with the baby but if I am unable to then I will get your help.
I am a single mom so I just need an extra hand to help me. As we will be working together and with the baby, you will be considered and welcomed as part of the family.
I am looking for someone long term as the baby does get attached, he is very affectionate!
This can be a 2 part position as I potentially need help on all the days so tasks can be divided.
Please email CV to my email is artikasingh.aba@gmail.com
ONLY THOSE WHO EMALED CV/RESUME WILL BE CONSIDERED.
Please note: it is $25 to start with pay increase after 3 months. Also can provide great reference for careers to those individuals who stay on long-term, as I have my own private practice.
Also note, you must be willing to get a whooping cough vaccine as there is an infant in the household.
We're looking for a fun and energetic babysitter for our 3-year-old boy, who loves to stay active and explore. He’s full of curiosity and enjoys playing with cars, blocks and outdoor activities.
The ideal sitter will be someone that lives in the south-eastern suburbs, patient, playful, and experienced with toddlers, ready to keep up with his high energy and engage in creative play.
He is currently in childcare full time, but he used to go 3 days a week. So he misses a little that one on one time.
We are looking for someone that can help out after 5pm, the weekends/public holidays, in case he is sick and we cannot take time off work, or we go out at night. Also pick him up from childcare around 3pm once a week and do something fun, like going to the beach, park, library.
Tell me if that suits you, so we can arrange a meet & greet.
FYI we have a cat.
