We're a friendly family in Coburg looking for a warm, energetic nanny to care for our two children, Henry (5) and Sofia (2) on Mondays and Tuesdays from 7:30am–3:30pm, starting 3 August.

We're looking for someone who loves getting out and about and creating fun, active days. We'd love our kids to spend their days exploring playgrounds, museums, the zoo, libraries, bike rides, nature walks and other local adventures. On rainy days, we'd love someone who can keep them entertained with arts and crafts, sensory play, baking, games and imaginative play.

Henry is a curious and creative five-year-old who loves dinosaurs, arts and crafts, riding his bike and discovering new things. Sofia is our little firecracker. She is full of personality, always on the go, and happiest making everyone pretend coffees in her play kitchen.

Sofia still usually has a nap around midday. She doesn't nap well when out, so on most days we'd like her to be home around lunchtime (12-1pm) for her sleep. Occasionally, we're happy for her to skip her nap if there's a special outing planned.

We're looking for someone who is:

* Warm, kind and reliable.
* Active and happy spending lots of time outdoors.
* Confident taking young children on outings.
* Creative and able to keep children engaged at home when the weather isn't great.
* Comfortable preparing simple meals and tidying up after the kids throughout the day.
* Help out with light chores, especially never-ending piles of laundry 😅

We live close to plenty of parks, train station and family-friendly attractions, making it easy to plan fun days out.

If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you!

We're after a nanny/babysitter for our kids on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays evenings 3pm to 7pm for pick-ups, extra-curricular activities, homework help and getting dinner started.

Our kids are 14, 11 and 7, and they're all at different schools at the moment, so the logistics are a big part of where we need help.

We are looking for an easy going, energetic, play-loving babysitter to look after our 3.5 year old daughter for 4 evenings per week. From 4:30-8:30 pm, four week nights, no weekends. The right person would love playing games, have an active imagination and be fun loving. We will be at home. The role is play based.

Hello, my name is Courtney and I'm looking to hire a local babysitter for my son, who is 7 years old.
I am about to start a new job which has slightly longer hours than we’re used to, so we’re looking for someone to help out 2-3 afternoons/evenings per week. We are located in Northcote, near Johnston Park.
Responsibilities will include picking him up from school/after school care and bringing him home - we live a 5 minute walk away from school. From there, it will just be hanging out with him until I get home - light afternoon snack duties but NO dinner prep or other errands required.
Hours would be approximately 3.30pm-6.30pm, 2-3 times a week. Exact hours and days can be worked around the right candidate’s schedule.
Happy to answer any questions if required, look forward to hearing from you!

Hi, I’m Whitney, and I'm currently looking for someone reliable to help as I head back to work next month.

We have three children aged 9, 6 and 2½, and we've never needed to use anyone other than our parents for childcare.

Unfortunately, my husband's mum hasn't been in the best health recently, and my mum has a three-week trip booked starting the first week of my new job (it's always the way!).

My husband and I have often talked about how nice it would be to have someone we know, trust and can rely on whenever we need an extra helping hand.

The main role would be caring for our youngest, Lenny, who is 2½. He attends childcare on Wednesdays, so we'd be looking for care on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays during the three weeks my mum is away. After that, we'd likely need help one or two days a week to help share the load.

I'd love to have a chat about what we're looking for and see if it might fit with your availability.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thanks,

Whitney

Hello! We are looking for an experienced nanny to help care for our four children - 2 year old boy/girl twins and 8 year old girl and 10 year old girl.

The role includes dropping and picking up the older two kids off at school in nearby Moonee Ponds, then spending the day with our twins doing whatever keeps you and them entertained!

Kids get up around 0730.

We're in walking distance of Melbourne Zoo, Brunswick Sydney Road and about 3 parks and a few coffee shops!

We have a car with all the car seats ready to go and for your use both days and we'll provide food in the fridge for you and the kids. We'll provide a roster 3 months in advance so we can all be organised!

If you'd prefer a wrap around role - 0630 - 0900 / 1530 - 1900 - we can do that too, just reach out and we can have a chat.

If you are able to provide a housekeeper role - let me know!

DO YOU SPEAK GREEK? we would love to do additional greek lessons outside of the posted times. We have 3 kids. 2 children who attend different schools which are just around the corner. Our daughter would be required to be picked up at 3:15, my 11 year old walks home. I need one off assistance on Monday and Wednesday with my 5 year old boy from 8am-6pm. you will need to take him to pick up my daughter. You can drive my car. after school home work assistance.

We (Laura, Marc, Henry (6y) , Rosie (4y) and Georgie (18m)) are looking for a kind, caring, gentle, loving and fun nanny to help our family out on a Tuesday each week from 7:30am - 5:30pm.

A typical day will look like:

7:30am - Arrive into chaos, but also sleepy morning hugs. Hopefully the kids are dressed and eating breakfast, but maybe not. Tag team with Laura and Marc as they go off to exercise and work. Ensure Henry is ready for school (lunchbox etc) , and the girls are dressed and ready to drop him off.

8:20am - Drive to school, drop Henry off with high fives ready for an 8:50am school start

8:50am - 3pm - Spend the day with Rosie and Georgie - Arts and crafts, baking, library visits, trips to the zoo/park, or play it by feel/mood. Georgie is still on 2 naps, Rosie can have a little bit of gentle TV in the middle of the day to give you some space to eat / help with some folding / throw some ingredients into the slow cooker for dinner or just recalibrate yourself and the house depending on the days activities.

3pm - Drive to school to pick Henry up with the girls.

4pm-5:30pm - Henry and Rosie usually play to catch up on the day, then bath the kids, and a little dinner prep would be appreciated. Laura or Marc will then be home and takeover. You may have arrived into chaos, but hopefully you leave in calm :)

About us: We like the simple things in life, we try to parent gently, we would appreciate a nanny who understands and is patient with the ever changing emotions of a developing brain, we validate emotions while also set appropriate boundaries.

In our spare time we love to go camping, gardening, baking, spending time with family and friends, exploring rock pools, exercise is a big part of the adult routines, the kids do swimming and AusKick.

Henry loves nature, arts and crafts especially drawing and adores school. Rosie loves imaginative play, dressing up and going to the library and shops, Georgie loves helping, climbing, animals and emptying out the kitchen cupboards! There is a lot of love between the siblings and only fairly minor fights, Henry and Rosie can play for hours. They love Georgie fiercely, Rosie on occasion a little too much and is very protective of her family :)

About you: We would love someone who has heaps of common sense, uses initiative, is good at cooking and baking, generous with their hugs and love, happy to get on the floor and play, while we understand the need for breathers and breaks if the kids are having some downtime, we would also love a little help with hanging out a wash load, folding some clothes etc but this is secondary to the kids care and attention.

Extra Context: I (Laura) have just got a new job and the hours, etc are still a little up in the air, there may be additional shifts available e.g. a morning or evening, and casual babysitting if there is interest. But our core requirement is a reliable Tuesday full day shift. We would like someone close-by to help with this flexibility. I may be working from home on the Tuesday, but preferably at the office. I will try to keep myself hidden as Georgie can be clingy if I am around, but she is completely fine when I'm not!

We are a family spending approximately two months in Keilor Park (Aug 17-Oct 2) and are looking for a warm, energetic, and proactive babysitter to spend time with our 2.5-year-old toddler on weekday mornings (Monday–Friday ~3 hours per day). We would love for this person to create fun, engaging experiences for our toddler outside the home.

Responsibilities
* Plan and lead age-appropriate activities and outings
* Take our toddler to activities such as:
* Library story times
* Play centers
* Playgrounds and parks
* Community events and toddler-friendly activities
* Proactively research and suggest activities each week
* Encourage learning, social interaction, outdoor play, and exploration
* Ensure our toddler’s safety and well-being during all outings
* Provide updates to parents on activities and any notable moments from the day

Requirements
* Previous experience caring for toddlers, preferably ages 2–4
* Valid driver’s license and safe driving record
* Reliable personal vehicle (we will provide a car seat)
* Comfortable driving a toddler to activities and outings
* Dependable, punctual, and engaging
* Current First Aid and CPR certification preferred

I'm after a regular sitter for my son, 11. One or two afternoons a week (flexible on which days), about 3.30 to 6.30 or 7pm, plus the occasional weekend.

He's auADHD but he's pretty independent, so it's an easy gig. He's a smart, funny kid who loves gaming and fun facts, and he has a special interest that changes week to week. Chess for a while, then golf, then table tennis, rock climbing, boxing ...you get the picture. You'd want to be someone who's happy to join in on whatever the current thing is.

If you're into gaming or full of random facts yourself, or have a special interest activity you two will get along.

He's been having his afternoons to himself lately and quite likes it, so part of the job is getting him off screens and doing stuff together. He'd game all afternoon if nobody stopped him.

Day to day it's pretty simple: hang out with him, make him some dinner, tidy the kitchen after.

If you've spent time around neurodivergent kids through work, family or your own experience, that's a big plus. He also has NDIS community participation funding, so if you're a qualified support worker or have an ABN activities and outings can be billed at support rates.

I'm a solo parent looking for someone ongoing and reliable, ideally a familiar face he ends up looking forward to.

If that sounds like you, tell me a bit about yourself and what days you're free.

We are a small family of 3 and are looking for a nanny for our 9 year old son. Our son is a happy energetic loving child who is very good at maths, reading, music and spelling.
