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

We are a family of 4 - we have two children, one 3 year old girl and one 4 month old boy - we would love someone to help us on a Friday for the full day. I will be around, but also in and out of the house (will take the 4 month old with me mostly!) My daughter loves craft, cooking, adventures to the library, park, zoo, cafe, museum etc!

Hi

We are looking for afterschool care for our 7 year old boy commencing immediately. Initially we are looking for Monday and Wednesday from 3:30pm to 7pm.

Our family is quite dynamic as two full time executives working and travelling. We have three boys aged 20, 17 and 7. The ‘big boys’ are with us every other week and are fairly self-sufficient. We also have a medium size fluffy dog called Lando who is friendly and gentle and will love pats from you!

We live in Northcote and a 500m walking distance to the primary school for pick up.

We are seeking help two afternoons a week for our youngest from 3:30pm to 7pm. Monday and Wednesday. The role includes collection from school, general playtime, reading, some clothes washing and preparing easy family meals.

We have a nanny at the moment but she is has limited availability and we are seeking additional support. We are hopeful that if this arrangement is successful you will be part of our list of casual carers for weekend events or date nights.

Our ideal nanny is someone responsible with good communication skills, friendly punctual, and proactive.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Regards,

Lindsey & Matt
