Hello,

My name is Nancy and I live in Caulfield South with my husband, 2 year old son, and 3 month old baby.

We are looking for a babysitter for a weekly time slot of Saturday and Sunday 3pm- 5:30pm to play and care for our 2 year old son.

We will be at home at this time taking the opportunity to catch up on household chores and looking after our baby.

Our son is a super sweet boy, a little shy and cautious at first but lots of fun once he warms up. Someone who has a quiet and gentle nature, also careful around our new home would be a wonderful fit.

If you are available we would love to hear from you.

Our rate is $30 and would be happy to discuss.

All my best,
Nancy

Hi!! We have a 7 month old baby and I need a bit of extra help with her on Wednesdays and Fridays, as I work from home. The hours will vary but it will be approx. 3 hours each day, usually in the morning 9 - 12. She's the best baby – so happy and easy. Also a bit of help with housework.

We are looking for a reliable and caring babysitter in the Caulfield Area to help with our afternoon routine. The role involves picking up our 7-year-old daughter from school, helping her with homework, heating up pre-prepared meals for her and her two older brothers who arrive home independently, and driving the children to their after-school activities.

We are hoping to find someone responsible and warm who would enjoy becoming part of our family’s routine and is interested in a long-term arrangement.

We're a busy working family looking for a kind and reliable nanny to help keep things running smoothly at home. Our 4‑year‑old attends childcare and kindergarten, while our 6‑ and 8‑year‑olds are at school. We're seeking part‑time support initially during the day and some evenings, with potential school pick‑ups and drop‑offs (a driver's licence and car helpful but not essential). The role also includes light housework, laundry and basic meal prep. We're very happy to be flexible around your work, study or other part‑time commitments.

Hi! My husband and I are looking for someone to look after our baby girl (she is 16 months) from Monday to Fridays from 9am to 5pm while we work. The first few weeks would be Tuesdays and Fridays to get to know Sofia, and then we would move to 5 days a week. Please send me a message here if you are interested.

Hi Nannies!

We’re on the hunt for a new Mary Poppins to join our family and care for our three adorable little characters. We’ve just had a period of no nannies so this will be a bit if a change, bear with us!

A bit about us:
• Location: McKinnon/Bentleigh/Ormond (3204)
• Hours: Mostly between 9/9:30am–4:30/5pm, Monday to Friday depending on my meetings
• No weekend, public holiday, or after-hours work
• Three little ones:
- 5yo girl (at school)
- 3yo girl (at kinder 2 days a week)
- 2yo boy (sweet, funny little man with a big smile and growing into his own adorable personality, very chatty!)

We think they’re hilarious and delightful little monsters — you’ve been warned!

Our vibe:
The kids are creative, curious and full of energy. They love:
• Arts and crafts, painting, play dough, dress-ups
• Roleplaying mums & dads, café, etc.
• Parks, playgrounds, pram walks, bike rides, scooting, picnics, collecting leaves and sticks (which stay outside!)
• Puzzles, games, music, dancing and sensory play
• Cars, blocks, magnetic tiles, footy or throwing a ball and dancing!
• We’ve also got two friendly, fluff balls who are part of the family — they’ll want pats too!

Dad works full-time mostly in the office, and I (Mum) mostly work from home — I’ll be around but busy working, available to check in or help when needed.

What we’re looking for in our dream nanny is:
• Not responding to this with an AI generated response (we can tell)
• Warm, fun, patient, and genuinely loves spending time with little ones. Be engaging enough to get the kids comfortable pretty quickly (this one’s important, I’m around but need to know the kids are comfortable and prefer to be with you during nanny time so I can work)
• Experienced with multiple children at once
• Experienced with girls e.g. can do girls’ hair, can play pretend makeup, draw, be creative with crafts, etc.
• Professional, punctual, organised, clean, responsible and easy-going (I’m quite OCD with toys being put away in their place and things cleaned properly)
• Confident in the kitchen for preparing kids’ meals/snacks (at a minimum you can scramble eggs, make omelettes, French toast, if not, I’ll be teaching you :P)
• Able to work around naps (2yo still naps consistently in the middle of the day)
• Proactive with light household help: e.g., folding laundry, tidying kids’ spaces, unpacking groceries
• Engaged and educational – helping our older two with early literacy, counting, days of the week, etc. and our little one with learning words (no TV plonking)
• Active and hands-on — walks, babycino outings, playgrounds, books, crafts, cubby house builds, etc.
• Skilled with bathtime routines: drying hair, moisturising, managing post-bath chaos!
• Comfortable around friendly dogs

Must-haves:
• WWCC
• Police Check
• First Aid (current)
• Driver’s licence & reliable transport (comfortable driving a larger car to kinder/school/swimming/etc.)
• Willingness to care for sick kids from time to time (we’ll take over if theyre super sick)
• Generally be awesome with them/don’t turn out to be a psycho kidnapper.

Rate:
Rate is negotiable based on experience. We've been through a few nannies and can now definitely tell when someone clicks with our family.

If you’ve made it this far and found yourself nodding along — we’d love to hear from you!
Please comment with your age, experience, and expected rate, and we’ll be in touch with suitable candidates for next steps.
Looking forward to finding our next superstar!
