I'm Alina Xu, currently on the lookout for a warm-hearted babysitter to join our family. We are located in Forest Hill, Vic 3131.
I have a delightful 2.5-year-old son who is full of energy and loves to play. Due to my current pregnancy, I'm finding it challenging to carry him, especially when he's not attending child care, and I'm unable to keep up with his playful activities. We are in need of a babysitter who is not only caring but also attentive to our needs, particularly when we go out.
Assistance with getting our son in and out of the car seat would be incredibly helpful, easing the physical strain on me. One of our main goals is to help our son become more proficient in English, which will greatly assist him in adapting to school life. Thus, we'd highly appreciate a babysitter who can engage with him in English through play and daily interactions. Initially, we are looking to start with one day a week, specifically Tuesday and Thursdays from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with the potential to increase the hours as we become more accustomed to each other.
During his two-hour nap at noon, we would appreciate some help tidying up his toys and perhaps using the time to rest yourself in our living room. This position is perfect for someone who is loving, patient, and looking to be part of a caring family environment.
We are new immigrants from China and our English is currently at an intermediate level; we are actively working to improve it. If you think you might be a good fit, especially if you're comfortable enhancing a child's English skills, we'd love to hear from you!
Are you the Mary Poppins of the modern age? Do you sprinkle joy and organisation wherever you go? Well, listen up! Our incredible Founder & Director, Jessica, is on the lookout for a superstar nanny to join her household dream team and dive headfirst into the adventure of supporting her bustling life as a go-getting working mum!
Picture this: You'll be whisking Jessica's adorable son away from school three times a week, ensuring he's safe and sound in your capable hands. But wait, there's more! Wednesday afternoons are all about football fever—get ready to kick some goals with him from March to July! 🏈
But hey, it's not all about sports—cue the educational extravaganza! You'll be diving into homework sessions and fostering a love for reading that'll rival even the most magical fairy tales. And let's not forget about whipping up some culinary delights in the kitchen—because who doesn't love a nutritious and delicious meal, especially when you're catering to a little foodie in the making?
Now, what's on the checklist? 📋
Previous nanny experience is a must. Experience with children with extra pizzazz? Bonus points!
Reliable transportation is a must—after all, you'll be the VIP chauffeur for school pickups!
Did we mention your ability to cook up a storm? If you're a culinary genius with a side of organisational flair and a sprinkle of positivity, you're exactly who we're looking for!
And here's the cherry on top:
competitive pay
a supportive family vibe
room to grow faster than Jack's beanstalk! 🌱
So, if you're ready to dive into the whirlwind world of Jessica's household and become an honorary member of her family, don't delay—send in your resume and a sprinkle of your magic in a cover letter.
Join the adventure, join the fun—because with Jessica, every day is a journey worth taking! 🚀✨

Requirements include easy dinner prep, feeding in high chair, lots of playing, reading books and settling to sleep with routine. Light cleaning up after meal times and tidying toys etc. (Maybe occasional folding and loading/ unloading dishwasher).
We also have a 5 month old golden retriever who is a delight, but also very much in training so ideally you must love dogs!

We look forward to hearing from you!
Hi all, I am looking for someone to look after my 1 and half yr old daughter and 3 and half year old son, for approximately 20-25hrs per week. My roster is a monthly roster so each week in the month is a little different but essentially I’m looking for someone who can do a long day 3 out of 4 Mondays and then 3 evenings a week 4-7pm.
On the monday, i would need you to feed kids, take for outings, prepare simple healthy meals, bath them and get ready for bed. My son has a lot of energy so ideally someone who likes to take kids for outings to local parks or playcenters or create interesting activities to do with the kids at home.
When working the afternoons, I would require you to pick up kids from daycare, bring home, prepare and feed dinner, then bath them and get them ready for bed.
The ideal applicant will be punctual, reliable, good with kids, and have a car and licence to pick up kids from daycare. You will need to be comfortable with dogs as I have two medium sized very friendly dogs who are indoor a lot.
I would need you to tidy up after the kids and keep kitchen and common areas tidy. I will also occasionally ask you to empty dishwasher, hang out clothes or fold clothes.
I am a little flexible - if you can only do afternoons/evenings please still apply as i might be able to find someone else for the long Mondays.
This role involves engaging and playing with children to bring out their best!

We are a family in Chadstone and seeking a fun and caring nanny to care for our children, daughter aged 3.5 years and son aged almost 2, at least two days per week (Thursday and Friday and one other) but likely 3. Both parents work full time so would love someone who loves spending time with the kids but also happy to help us out a little to keep the house running smoothly!
The children can be delightful company and get along very well (aside from the usual sibling banter!). We do have pets but do not expect any pet care. We have recently moved to a new house so plenty of space and parks nearby. Really just after someone who is reliable, loves engaging and playing with the children and can help keep the house running and the kids organised on the day that they are here.
The kids currently have care so some flexibility on start dates but would love to confirm the new carer for our family soon. Happy to discuss hourly rate.
If this sounds like we may be a good fit for you please reach out and we can discuss further.
We are a young family, we have a 23 month old boy who loves the outdoors, joking around, reading, playing and a big animal lover. Looking for someone, preferably above 25yrs old to come and hang out and play, so mum can get a break or work from home. Very flexible days and hours available but looking for someone long term. Ideally looking for 9-11:30am or after nap care 3-5pm, but can be flexible around 12-3pm naps - extra hours available for cleaning. Son has been sick from toxic mould exposure since 2 months old (previous house) , so we’ve been unable to go to childcare so getting a great nanny is essential. Mum is kiwi, dad is aussie, very relaxed chilled family. Please include in message what days and hours you’re available, your age and any qualifications, skills or fun facts.
We are a family of 4 (2 kids, 2 month old and a 3 year old) and we need a reliable babysitter for a permanent position 3 times a month. 1 Saturday (during the day) for 4 hours and 2 Friday nights for 4 hours as well.

Hi I I am going overseas all of July and need an evening/overnight carer for my 19yr old son
He has a mild ID but is very independent and attends TAFE Holmesglen Chadstone each week day.
My son also has epilepsy and can sometimes have a seizure in his sleep around early morning upon waking.
This is an area where I need someone with experience or someone with high first aid.
Note this may happen twice a week or not at all there is no pattern. He sleeps all night easily otherwise.
I already have a carer who is going to help me during this time - the overnights would be interchanging with her. Hours are 5pm ish till 8am ish depending on your own movements during the day. My son gets himself to TAFE.
Lots more to tell but I need your genuine interest first then we can get into details
Thanks PS O/N rate is around $275-300 depending on hours
We're looking for someone to care for our 13-month-old girl every Wednesday, starting May 8th, from 8:30am to 5pm, for approximately 3-4 weeks (we're potentially looking to continue this arrangement in the longer term). We're located in Glen Iris.
Responsibilities:
- Caring for our 13-month-old daughter
- Looking after our 3-year-old and 5-year-old from around 4-5pm
- Preparing meals for the kids
- Keeping the kids' areas clean and tidy
Looking for a warm and energetic babysitter with experience in disability. We have a gorgeous little boy with special needs (autistic/ADHD/Intellectual Disability) who is 5 and developmentally around 1-2 years old. He is nonverbal, very active, and has a lovely happy temperament. He loves water so any sort of water play or movement-based activities keep him entertained and happy. We are basically needing an extra pair of hands a couple of times a week for 3-4 hours (afterschool or weekends) to give us some time to get some work done from home, spend time with our other 2 kids, or run some errands. This would involve picking him up from school, minding him at home, nappy changes, doing some therapy exercises, and/or taking him out to the park. Every few months (July/Dec) we need some more intensive babysitting that would involve 2-3 mornings a week for 3 weeks where he would need to be driven to his intensive therapy program and assisted in between therapy breaks then driven to school).
I am looking for help over various days in May and potentially after May to pick up my grade 5 year old from school in Glen Iris and bring her home in Hawthorn East. Then help her set up for tutoring at home and potentially help with homework and basic house clean up.
The days in May I am looking for are for Tues, Wed or Thurs after school. My husband is starting a new job and is required in the office so we need help with kid pick up. Then as we work it out we will determine if we need ongoing help. Is this something that you would be interested in? Please reach out!
Looking for a babysitter in Rosanna for my busy sweet 2 year old girl on some Wednesdays (I have my schedule 4 weeks in advance) 1245pm-345pm. Will include walking to pick her up from pre school (walking distance from our house), popping her down to nap (would be amazing if you could tidy playroom and fold kids laundry during her 1.5 hour nap) then my middle girl (7) will be dropped home or you will walk to collect her from school (10 min walk). My son won’t be at home.
Then also every other weekend either Saturday or Sunday if you could babysit all 3 kids while my husband and I go out for lunch. So 1pm-5pm. My 10 year old son is very self sufficient - he loves someone who will play basketball with him! My 7 year old is a great help with her toddler sister and they all love the trampoline. They are busy but so fun! Toddler naps 1230pm-2pm.
Need someone from asap til mid July.
