Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Diggers Rest VIC

Hello
My name is Bec Olsen and I am a single parent to a beautiful 7 year old named Luca and mini groodle called Bella.
Luca is autistic and non verbal and loves music, dancing, jumping on his trampoline, colours and numbers.
I am looking for a regular babysitter at least once a month on the weekend for 5 or 6 hours so I can get out of the house.

I have a six year old son who requires school pick up at least three days per week. I would need someone to be available from 3 pm to 6 - 7 pm. During this time if you could help with his homework, play with him and prepare dinner for the family that would be amazing. I may ask for errands to be run and light cleaning. Note; I have two small poodles who are very friendly.

There is a strong possibility this may be offered permanently after initial period. I can also be flexible on pick up days.

Hi there,

After-school pick ups Tues/Wed/Thurs (3 - 6pm T&W and 3 - 6:30pm Th), for 11yo G and 8yo B - two bubbly children who are seeking someone engaging and present who has 4+ years experience, WWCC, full driver’s licence - must be off P plates - parent references and is reliable and able to commit for a minimum of 6 months.

3:00-6:00/6:30pm $35/hr
Tues/Wed/Thurs (must be able to do all 3 days)

Nanny duties include: Pick up kids from school/bus stop (car provided) - one pick up at 3:30pm and the other pick up at 3:45pm. After returning from school pick ups, it's unpacking school bags/cleaning out lunchboxes, preparing some simple afternoon tea. After school activities vary from swimming to football training, some drop off and some staying at venue.

Light house duties of folding of washing (if a basket is done) and putting away clothes, and cooking dinners for the kids - guidance provided on this unless you happen to be a whiz in the kitchen and don't need any guidance on meals! :-)

Looking for someone that is reliable and can commit to the hours. Someone that is patient, present and genuinely enjoys kids but can also set boundaries when required. Someone that has the ability to be able to see the little things also that might help a working parent out and can clean up after themselves and have the house tidy 😊

Non-smoking around children, no phone scrolling and nut-free (one child has nut allergies). WWCC and family references a must, as is a driver’s license and safe driving history.

Open to all ages and backgrounds as long as you have proven nanny experience greater than 4 years and someone local is probably most ideal. Thanks! 😊

We are looking for someone to regularly babysit our gorgeous little boy George (born April 2025) on a regular basis, starting with Wednesday mornings around 9 - midday, and otherwise as required during the week and some Friday or Saturday evenings. No housework expected during these babysitting hours.

From January 2026 we will be looking for a permanent nanny, 3 days per week (ideally Mondays - Wednesdays & Thursdays from 8 - 6pm) as George's mum returns to work. Some light household duties would be expected during these hours, including food shopping, basic meal prep for George and for parents, going out to buy gifts or other things we might need during the week.

Ideally this person would start working with us on a casual basis this year, and transition to more permanent role next year. We would love for the right person to become part of our small family and eventually accompany us on holidays or weekends away to our holiday homes in Sorrento, Noosa and Mt Buller during the Ski Season.

George is our first child, and has a beautiful nature. He is very smiley and calm, and bonus - he loves to sleep!!
