We are a family of 5, Ruby 12, Otis 10 and Jensen 9 plus our two bulldogs. We are looking for a nanny to help with after school pick-ups and care. The role involves assistance with meal preparation, housework and sports drops offs.
Our kids are active, fun and enjoy sport, craft and playing together.
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 😊

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! 😊
I am looking for someone to do before and afterschool care shifts. This would involve drop off and pick up as well as some light housekeeping (putting on a load of washing, cleaning up from meals) once the kids are dropped off.
This would suit a uni student or someone looking to fill gaps who has flexibility.
Ages: 3 and 5 year old (almost 4 and 6)
Requirements: Drivers license, working with children check. ***Previous experience with children***
Location: St kilda east
Times: Depending on my roster mornings 0730-0930 and 1530-1815/30.
Hi there,
My husband and I are looking for a babysitter for our two sons twice a week starting July 23 as our current babysitter can no longer commit due to a shift in their uni timetable.
Our sons (7yo & 3yo) are at primary school and kinder locally.
We need to arrange care for the following days and hours:
Wednesday: 1-4pm (starts with pick up at kinder, as well as pick up from primary school later at 3.30pm)
Thursday: 7am to 1pm (primarily looking after our 3yo before dropping him at kinder at 1pm; also includes dropping our 7yo at school at 8.45am - both walkable)
If this is something you would be interested in please let me know and we can arrange a catch up ASAP.
Kind regards,
Amelia
