We’re a fun family with two beautiful boys aged 6 and 8. Our kiddos are neurodivergent, they attend the local Catholic school (200m from our home), AND they're full of life, curiosity, and a lot of energy! Husband and I are Canadian expats and full time professionals who mostly work in the city or offsite; work committments and the absence of informal support in Melbourne have faciliated our need to search for the right person to work with our family. We're flexible and easy going, and love sharing family trips and excursions with our boys.
We're looking for the right person to help the children thrive, engage them, and give them a chance to chill out after school, with plenty of giggles and smiles along the way. Experience working with autistic and/or children with ADHD is ideal; if you are warm and patient, our boys love making connections with adults - and the adults often find a relationship with our children rewarding!
Duties:
School pick-up; car not required
Light housework (mostly just tidying up, maybe folding clothes in a quiet moment)
Preparing dinner (we love simple, tasty meals, often using meal kits - but would be happy to shop for your recipes)
Adhoc depending-on-the-vibe activities might include homework, supervising the use of educational apps, practicing piano, occasional outing to the library, the opp shop, park, etc.
Currently looking for a live in nanny/au pair to work approx 25-30 hours a week. Weekdays only 5.30-8am and 4.30-7pm. We will provide room with King size bed and ensuite, all bills included, internet, main meals and weekly pay, hourly rate to be discussed. We have two gorgeous little boys ages 2 and 3 and am seeking help before and after childcare as my husband travels a lot for work. No driving required as I do all pick up and drop offs. Our house is new and modern. Experience with boys this age would be beneficial. If this sounds like something you might be interested in, then please contact me to discuss further :)
Hello future carers,
We are a family of 4 ( Dad, Mum, 5yo, 2yo)
Dad and Mum both leave home at 6am to head to work.
5 Year old will be attending prep this year, 2 year old will be attending daycare.
we are looking for someone ideally with experience in getting kids ready in the morning and dropping them off to school.
Both primary school and daycare are located across the road from each other so drop offs will be in the same location.
Schools are a short 5 minute drive from home.
Dad & Mum both work in the construction industry so public holidays we do get extended time off (can be discussed which days we won't be needing help)
Every second Monday is a rostered day off for both parents so we won't be needing assistance on those days.
We would love to welcome someone long term into our family who is easy going, reliable and on time.
Both kids are super easy going, well behaved so I'm confident that each morning will be a breeze.
6am-9am Monday-Friday!
Happy to discuss more details and information over the phone/in person - We are simple, easy going and understanding parents so please do not hesitate to reach out!
Morning coffees supplied :)
Thank you
Hello, I am just looking for someone to pick up my 11yr old son after school every second Thursday and Friday and drop him home - it is from 3:00pm in airport west where his school is - to our home in Essendon. Friday would be from 3:00pm to 6:30pm as there is after school sports.
Hey! We are a family of 4 needing someone to come hang out with our kids for a full day Tuesday.
Miss 4 is active, loves books, moving her body and is a strong little woman.
Mr 2 is fully toilet trained, active, loves fishing and hunting.
They both love pretend play, so you need to be able to actually play, not just supervise.
We are anything but mainstream. If the words: alternative or hippy resonate with you, we will probably be a good match.
Require babysitter for a year old baby on casual basis. Flexibility for number of hours worked needed. Hourly rate negotiable depending on extra work done.

Hi, my name is Ana and I'm looking for a nanny to look after and entertain my 3-year-old daughter, Evelyn, and my 15-month-old son, Harrison, 2 days per week for 2 hours at a time so I can do some work from home. At this stage, I'm thinking Monday, Tuesday or Thursday between 2:30-4:30pm. I've set the rate at $25p/h since I'll be home and can handle toileting/nappy changes, but happy to discuss the pay for the right applicant. Experience is highly desirable, but since I'll be at home and available as needed, I'm really looking for someone who can be caring, engaging, playful, patient and proactive with my kids. The role might involve providing some snacks and some light tidy up afterwards, but on the whole, I think it's a pretty "easy" role.
I am looking for a mature and experienced babysitter to support my 6.5-year-old daughter, Jemima, with early learning and development. The role will involve engaging her in interactive and functional play, reading, arts and crafts, and outdoor activities such as walks.

If you are interested, please contact me at 0423 857 547.
Looking forward to hearing from you! Julia Reynolds
We are seeking a nanny 2 days a week on Wednesday and Friday after school (3.30pm) until 6pm in Port Melbourne. The role involves picking up our 5 year old from primary school at around 330pm and then our 2 year old from childcare, which is around the corner from school, and then walking them home to our house, which is in the same street as the child care (and around the corner from the primary school). Once home, the carer will serve the boys dinner (already prepared) and playing with them until parents arrive. Ongoing or completed studies in education / health care would be looked upon favourably.
Our family are looking for a caring, responsible and fun person to care for our two year old and 5 year old on a casual basis. We are hoping to find the right person for our family so that we can have someone reliable who can also provide night time babysitting and possibly during the day during school holidays. We also have two small dogs.
Single mum & toddler named Jasper, we are currently in Thornbury! We have a small dog named Mazda who will want to hang out with you guys.
Im originally from Perth so I don’t have a lot of family here and sometimes just need a little break some nights. My ex partners folks usually help us out but understandably not always available. Would love some help at short notice but will aim to do planned evenings too.
Parenting solo, sometimes I just get a bit exhausted and need a few hours to recharge. Or even to just clean the house. I would love some evenings out with friends too. Keen to trial some a few hours first with someone and find out if it’s a good fit.
Jasper is a happy cheeky little guy, he’s been working on his speech in therapy once a week and we are seeing huge improvements. His favourite toy is his Buzz Lightyear, when mummy needs to get some chores done or it’s a horribly hot day, we te d to pop on some Toy Story!
Hi! We are looking for a nanny as an ongoing position to care for our 2 year old twins (boy & girl) while my husband and I work from home 3 days a week.
Hours are 9am-5pm on Monday, Tuesday and Friday starting on Feb 10th. We can be flexible on days for the right candidate.
Caregiver to provide sole care for the twins at this time - including planning activities for the day, feeding lunch, napping, nappy changing and assisting with toilet training. No housework required other than cleaning up after the twins and maybe putting away a load of their washing.
The kids are at such a fun age where they love going to the park to run and jump around, but are also starting to learn structured activities like drawing/puzzles/playdoh. We are lucky to live in a location with many parks in walking distance and some great toddler friendly activities just a short drive away.
Experience with the 2-3 year age group and/or experience with multiples is preferred but not essential. Because we are working from home, on most days there should be at least one parent to lend a hand if required!
Pays $30ph ($720 per week)
If this sounds like you please get in touch! we would love to hear from you :)

Hi All,
I'm a parent of a young boy, who is 8 years old.
I work casual hours, weeknights and weekends, any time during the day (but never overnights).
I'm seeking a Nanny / Mothers help that is qualified in Early Education or studying towards.
Payment is via an agency so I get the government subsidy. This is not a cash in hand role.
A Nanny that is engaging and loves working with kids.
My boy is super easy to look after but is a little fussy when it comes to eating, so someone that is confident in the kitchen that knows a little more than the basics would be ideal. I provide all meals most of the time but your input on occasion would be welcomed.
My work is adhoc, you will be one of a few nannies, so no pressure to always be available.
Please get in touch if you wish to chat further :)
Looking for someone to do school pickup(s) a couple of days a week. This is for 2 girls (grade 2 and grade 5). There is usually an activity that they would need to be taken to so driver’s license required.

We are looking for a nanny to care for our two girls, ages 12mo and 40mo during the day (~8am-6pm) for 3-4 days a week (flexible, as is the start date).

• Managing bins (rubbish, recycling, worm farm, FOGO, Tommee Tippee)
• Tidying and organising children’s spaces

What We Offer:

• No ironing or excessive vacuuming (we have a robot vacuum)
• Optional babysitting or nanny shifts if interested
• Car not required—easy public transport access and street parking available
Ideal Candidate:
• Reliable, consistent, and able to work independently

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.
