• Spending time outside, encouraging active play and creativity
• Supporting learning at home—especially in science, maths and English
• Keeping things low-tech and high-imagination

We are a busy family with four young boys who need help on an Thursday. Our amazing Nanny of 2 years has had a change to her university hours and we are now looking for someone to take over her Thursday work. Currently she arrive at our house at midday, folds and puts away laundry, cooks dinner and does some general tidying or household errands. She then either picks the kids up from school if they are to be taken to sports or waits for them to get home on the bus and looks after them until I get home (between 5.30 and 7pm). If she is there later she will give the kids dinner. There is some variable driving depending on afterschool activities as well as helping with readers and homework. We are looking for someone who is happy to do this as an ongoing part time job. We are away at times during school holidays but often there is even more work available on the holidays as the kids are off school. We would like someone who is reliable and trustworthy and we would like references and to meet for interview prior to offering the position. We would like someone who is firm with the kids but also knows how to engage and have fun with them. Our youngest is 6 and our oldest 12yo.

We are happy to be flexible for the right person and would love someone long term who will become an extended part of our family as life will no doubt get busier :)

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 :)
