Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Eastern Outer Melbourne, VIC

We’re a small family in Rowville looking for a warm, reliable and proactive mother’s helper / family helper to support me at home with our lovely 1-year-old daughter.

This is a little different from a traditional nanny role. I’ll usually be at home and will remain our daughter’s primary carer. What I’m really looking for is an extra pair of capable hands to make the day run more smoothly.

Depending on what’s needed that day, the role might include:
- Playing with our daughter, or reading with her or taking her for a walk while I cook, work, shower or get something done
- Helping with her meals and snacks
- Tidying her play and eating areas
- Putting on or folding a load of laundry
- Unpacking/loading the dishwasher and resetting the kitchen
- Light meal preparation or chopping vegetables
- General tidying and helping keep the household flowing

This is not a heavy cleaning role — we’re looking for someone who naturally notices what needs doing and is happy to move between helping with our daughter and helping around the home.

The right person will be kind, calm, trustworthy and comfortable around a young toddler. Experience with babies/toddlers is very welcome, but just as important to us is someone who is sensible, warm and genuinely enjoys being part of family life.

We’d love to find someone local who can come regularly during the week and hopefully become a familiar, trusted person in our daughter’s life and our home.

We’re moving to Rowville and currently offering $35/hour.

Please send me a little about yourself, your experience, your availability and what you’re looking for in a role.
