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!

We are currently looking for a nanny to do occasional Friday and Saturday evenings with the potential of taking over our current Nanny’s days Mondays and Wednesday 8am - 3:30pm starting in October.
Our current Nanny’s one year visa is expiring however she hopes to return in March 2026, so please keep in mind that this job will be from October - February for now with the possibility it may be ongoing for the remainder of 2026 pending on our current Nanny’s plans to return.
We would love a nanny who has at least 5 years of experience in early childhood and experience with babies is a must!
M&W work details:
Our 2.5yo enjoys outings to the park and other activities that arise in our local area.
He loves to play 1:1. His interests are playing in his kitchen, transport, baking, imaginative play, dancing, music and art and craft.
Your other duties would involve doing some light housework and tidying up after our son.
I am on maternity leave from teaching so I’ll be around (but not hovering) whilst you are here, however I will be running errands outside of home and sometimes find me doing work for my husband.
You will mostly be looking after our 2.5yo and at times both boys for an hour or so (when I need to leave the house or catch up on sleep).
Our 2.5yo has anaphylaxis to cashews and pistachios and has an allergy to egg. It is vital you have first aid and are confident using an epipen.
My name is Olivia and I am looking for a nanny to look after our 7 month old twin boys 2 days a week, 8am- 2pm. We are somewhat flexible with days (but ideally it would be Mondays and Wednesdays).
We also have a 2 year old daughter called Sienna and I would be mostly taking her out with me for some one-on-one time while you help with the boys at home.
Your nannying would involve feeding the boys, playing with them and putting them to sleep. I’m looking for someone who is warm, loves kids and is open to learn. I will properly train you before leaving you with the twins as I know not many people have experience with young babies!
The boys are absolutely adorable and we hope to find someone who would be able to help us for some time going forward (and to help with some occasional evening nannying).
I am a local girl, went to St Leonards myself and we live in Brighton and would love someone local too.
Please let me know if you’re interested.
Thank you!!
