Casual Babysitter Needed – Tuesdays to Fridays (Daytime)
Location: Knoxfield
Hi! I’m looking for a reliable and caring babysitter to help me a few hours a day while I work from home.
Days: Tuesday to Friday
Hours: Roughly 12:30pm – 4:00pm (flexible)
Kids:
2-year-old (naps during most of this time)
6-month-old (also naps and is very calm)
My 4-year-old is only home on Wednesdays and Fridays
This is a pretty relaxed role – most of the time you’ll be caring for one or two sleeping children. I’ll be home working, or at the office just 5 mins away so just need someone to be a calm and loving presence in the house while I get a few hours in.
Ideally if I can find someone for a permanent day and then adhoc for other days for me
Perfect for someone local, responsible, and great with little ones.
Please get in touch if this sounds like a good fit!

Au Pair Needed – Caring for 3 Gorgeous Little Ones by the Bay
Hi, I'm Chloe – mum to my beautiful daughter Indie-Rose (2) and adorable twins, Frankie & Bonnie (8 months). We live in a relaxed, family-friendly home just minutes from the beach, with lovely cafes and coastal walks right on our doorstep.
We’ve been lucky to have amazing au pairs since Indie was 3 months old, and we're now looking for someone new to join our little family.
Hi, our nanny has now resigned and I am looking for someone fun, reliable and responsible to help my 5 year old & 9 year old get ready for school and then drop them off at school, two mornings a week. The school is two streets away and they are pretty good kids so it’s a fairly easy role. I am a single mom who works full time so I need help! We are in Beaumaris.
Our family is looking for some support after-school, in our home for a couple of days per week.
I have Multiple Sclerosis which provides challenges day to day and I experience quite a bit of fatigue. By late afternoon and into the evening I tend to need to conserve energy therefore I’m looking for some support with my daughter (8 years old). She is very active and requires dedicated attention, game playing, conversation and creative output.
I’d like to chat about what would work (can be flexible) but initial thoughts are: - Mon and Wed afterschool 4-6pm - interaction and learning through play - ideas around creative play / set up stations of play - some room tidying / sorting - must be dog friendly (anxious dog but will be managed)
For those interested that send a reply, I will collate and review all before replying. Thank you.
I have a two-year-old boy and a seven month old daughter, my daughter is breast-fed so you’d be mainly helping with my son. I work from home and I’m finding it increasingly difficult to do so while looking after my kids. I’m looking for someone to help me on Mondays from around 9 AM until the afternoon, around two or 3 PM. I am on the fence about whether I need help for Wednesday as well, I was thinking of having someone start on Monday and if my workload is enough I could increase it to Wednesday as well!
We have a Labrador and two cats as well, so you would have to be ok with animals too!
My son is very energetic, I am looking for someone who can match his energy and run and play with him, he really enjoys imaginative play, playing in his sandpit and colouring in too. He still has a day time nap, and requires someone to lie down with him for him to go to sleep. My daughter has just started crawling and eating solids, and loves interaction with people.
If you think we would be a great match please get in touch!
Thanks, Georgia.
We’re on the hunt for a new Mary Poppins to join our family and care for our three adorable little characters. Sadly, our much-loved nanny has had to leave due to a family emergency — so we’re hoping to find someone just as special.
A bit about us:
• Location: McKinnon/Bentleigh/Ormond (3204)
• Hours: Mostly between 9:30am–4:30/5pm, Monday to Friday
• No weekend, public holiday, or after-hours work
• Three little ones:
- Almost 5yo girl (at kinder 2 days a week – Mon & Wed, starting school next year)
- 3yo girl (starting kinder next year)
- 20-month-old boy (easy-going toddler with a big smile and growing into his own adorable personality)
We think they’re hilarious and delightful little monsters — you’ve been warned!
Our vibe:
The kids are creative, curious and full of energy. They love:
• Arts and crafts, painting, pay dough, dress-ups
• Roleplaying mums & dads, café, etc.
• Parks, playgrounds, pram walks, bike rides, scooting, picnics, collecting leaves and sticks (which stay outside!)
• Puzzles, games, music, dancing and sensory play
• Cars, blocks, magnetic tiles, footy or throwing a ball and dancing!
• We’ve also got two friendly, fluff balls who are part of the family — they’ll want pats too!
Dad works full-time mostly in the office, and I (Mum) mostly work from home — I’ll be around but busy working, available to check in or help when needed.
What we’re looking for in our dream nanny is:
• Not responding to this with an AI generated response (we can tell)
• Warm, fun, patient, and genuinely loves spending time with little ones. Be engaging enough to get the kids comfortable pretty quickly.
• Experienced with multiple children at once
• Experienced with girls e.g. can do girls’ hair, can play pretend makeup, draw, be creative with crafts, etc.
• Professional, punctual, organised, clean, responsible and easy-going (I’m quite OCD with toys being put away in their place and things cleaned properly)
• Confident in the kitchen for preparing kids’ meals/snacks (at a minimum you can scramble eggs, make omelettes, French toast, if not, I’ll be teaching you)
• Able to work around naps (2 kids still nap consistently in the middle of the day)
• Proactive with light household help: e.g., folding laundry, tidying kids’ spaces, unpacking groceries
• Engaged and educational – helping our older two with early literacy, counting, days of the week, etc. and our little one with learning words (no TV plonking)
• Active and hands-on — walks, babycino outings, playgrounds, books, crafts, cubby house builds, etc.
• Skilled with bathtime routines: drying hair, moisturising, managing post-bath chaos!
• Comfortable around friendly dogs
Must-haves:
• WWCC
• Police Check
• First Aid (current)
• Driver’s licence & reliable transport (comfortable driving a larger car to kinder/swimming/etc.)
• Willingness to care for sick kids from time to time
• Generally be awesome with them/don’t turn out to be a psycho kidnapper.
Rate:
Rate is negotiable based on experience. We've been through a few nannies and can now definitely tell when someone clicks with our family.
If you’ve made it this far and found yourself nodding along — we’d love to hear from you!
Please comment with your age, experience, and expected rate, and we’ll be in touch with suitable candidates for next steps.
Looking forward to finding our next superstar!

Hi everyone! My husband Rob and toddler Louis have just moved from Camberwell to Sandringham for a lovely sea change.
Louis has been in occasional care since he was 6 months old for a few days a week. This will come to an end on Wednesday and he will be at home with me for the remainder of the year until he starts kindergarten 2026 in Sandringham. He’s a lovely boyo, shy at first but once he’s familiar with you he’s a lot of fun (and a vey good sleeper)
I will need some help with appointments/classes that I can’t take Louis to (he’s 3 1/2). I have a regular Pilates class and would like to increase that if possible to twice a week (Nail appts/hair cuts/big supermarket shops etc) I’m looking for someone who I can liaise with (with lots of pre-warning) for things that pop up in my diary - even some date nights for my husband and I. Some jobs may be 3 hours required and some possibly 6 hour care. Please let me know if it sounds like something that interests you. We are very flexible and happy to pay cash if you’d prefer :)
