Hi everyone.

We are a family of four living in Eaglemont, just down the road from Eaglemont station. My husband and I both work full time and are looking for someone to support us with afternoon for our six year old daughter in year 1 and 4 year old son who is in kinder.

We are looking for someone Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday Thursday afternoons, from around 3pm in the afternoon to 5/5.30. We are also looking for someone to help out on Thursday morning, from 7-9am. The more critical hours are Monday and Tuesday afternoon, otherwise we are open to discussing hours, including whether a morning shift in addition to afternoon is required, or whether an early finish in the afternoon is needed.

The job will include picking kids up from school, daycare or kinder, helping our daughter with some basic homework, some minor things around the house like bringing in washing, unpacking the dishwasher. The key thing for us is though is the kids happiness, so this is the main job!

There is also opportunity for some full time days over the school holidays.

Must have WWCC, driver’s license.

$30-$35/hr depending on experience and level of support willing to provide.

We're in need of a nanny for Thursday and Friday (12th and 13th of Feb) during the day from approximately 9am - 5pm.

We have a 9 mth old boy who needs help sitting up and supervision at all times. He can do commando crawling and play with toys on the floor. We feed him solids twice a day and bottle feeds otherwise. He naps about two times during the day each lasting from 30 mins to 1.5 hours, during which time you're expected to wash baby bottles and launder bibs and other baby items (he drools a lot). Both parents will be home, one working remote full time and one doing post op recovery.

Hello

We are a family of five in Ivanhoe looking for a nanny to care for our 3 kids after school on Monday and Tuesday. Our current nanny's university timetable does not allow for her to continue her current role.

We have a 9-year-old boy (Grade 4) and 7-year-old boy/girl twins (Grade 2). You would be responsible for school pick up, taking kids to after school activities, doing readers with the kids, preparing kids' dinner and minor housework (cleaning lunch boxes, emptying dishwasher if required, dinner clean up).

School is within walking distance, or you will also have access to our car or 2 x booster seats if you would prefer to use your car. At this stage, the only after school activity is tutoring on Monday in Heidelberg for our eldest son, which would require you to drop him off at 4.30pm.

Also, if you would be happy to start earlier on one day to assist with kids' washing (folding and putting away) and other light household tasks, please let me know.

My husband and I work from home occasionally, so one of us may be home on some of the days, but we have a separate study and generally keep out of the way!

We also have an over friendly cocker spaniel called Frankie who will be happy to have a new friend to pester for pats.

Rate: $30 + p/h depending on experience (happy to discuss)

Please get in touch if this sounds of interest to you! Also happy to chat if you can only do some of the days required.

About the Role
This is very much a team effort role. One parent (myself or my partner) will usually be around at home or working from home - we’re just looking for an extra pair of capable hands during that busy after-work window.

You’ll be happy to:
• Jump in and play with the kids (reading, games, age-appropriate activities)
• Help supervise and care for the children while we’re around
• Assist with household tasks related to the kids (tidying toys, bottles, dishes)

• Generally help keep things running smoothly during the afternoon/evening routine

We’re not looking for perfection - just someone practical, helpful, and comfortable pitching in.

This role would suit someone who enjoys being part of a family’s rhythm and wants steady hours, with the opportunity for extra shifts over time.

If this sounds like a good fit, please get in touch with a short intro, your experience, and availability. We’d love to hear from you 😊

Self sufficient kids who need someone to care for them and run them around to sports after school three nights a week: Mon/Tues/Wed. Start asap preferred!

Looking for a caring and proactive person to help our little family with before and after school care for our two boys, currently attending local kindy and primary school. Possibility for additional hours term 2 onwards and also for casual weekend babysitting if available. Light meal prep for the boys would be required for the after-school days.

I am looking for a caring and reliable babysitter for my 8 year old daughter, who has travelled the world, and is very sophisticated for her age. She is also at times very strong headed. So, a babysitter in early 20’s range, in my opinion, always works best for her, as she relates better to this age group.

I am currently a single mum while living in Melbourne, and my daughter and I have recently relocated from New York. I grew up here, and am currently enrolled in university in the city. I am hoping to find someone kind, dependable, and consistent who can become an important part of our support system.

The position will begin on Thursday, February 19. It will involve getting my daughter ready for school, dropping her off at Fitzroy North Primary in the morning, and picking her up after school. This schedule must remain consistent for 12 weeks, finishing on Thursday, May 7. These days and times are essential, due to my classes, and that I anm unable to do school drop off or pickup myself on Thursdays. I would like to arrange a paid trial first to make sure it is a good fit for everyone.

Beyond this, I am also looking for someone who may be available at other times on various days during the week. This part of the role would be more flexible rather than on a fixed schedule. We can work out what suits both of us if it feels like the right fit.

Must have experience, and references that can be provided, and preferably close by to Fitzroy where we currently live.

Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Hello!

We are looking to meet a lovely (and very experienced) babysitter for Wednesdays from around 9:00AM - 12:30PM (ish) each week in February/March/April.

👩‍🎨 About the role:
We have a clever and quirky 3.5 year old!

The role will be about 3.5 hours per week on a Wednesday. We're hoping this can be an ongoing role, but we tend to decide week-to-week if the babysitting day is needed, so we have listed it as casual. The shift is on Wednesday mornings (9:00AM - 12:30PM tends to work). We work from home, so generally one or both of us will be home during the shift - but in a different area of the house.

📝 About you:
We are looking for someone who has experience working with children of a similar age. You have an interest in teaching young ones about life! We're looking to meet someone who is attentive, nurturing, patient, fun, caring, gentle and calm. We're looking to meet someone who has the energy to keep his developing mind busy (he's go go go!) He is sensitive and responds well to calm play (not too loud or intense).

We are hoping to meet someone who has experience with 3 year olds specifically and can help him with his general independence and learning about life.

👦 About the client:
Our 3.5 year old is a beautiful, quirky, clever and loves (LOVES) to chat! He loves when he is engaging with his favourite games and conversations - planets, numbers, learning new words and languages, maths, arts and crafts, reading, puzzles, books, quizzes, singing and imaginary play with his toys. He's a busy boy!

He is potty trained but still needs occasional assistance/reminding! A very, very selective eater but in this short shift we'll just provide his favourite snacks. A huge bonus if you've had experience with selective eaters (but not necessary). He's an avid learner and is happiest when he's learning or experimenting with something new.

👫About the parents:
We are both freelancers who work in music and the arts. We are openminded and we value honesty, humour, nature, kindness, empathy and compassion. We want to ensure the babysitters we work with feel supported and valued in their role!

I used to be a babysitter/nanny myself and met most of my babysitting clients on this website. I made so many amazing, longstanding connections with the families of the kids who are all grown up now and I still keep in touch with them and visit them 15-20 years later! Babysitting taught me so much that I am now applying as a Mamma.

We are looking forward to hearing from you. We will generally organise a phone call first, then a one hour trial period (to make sure it's the right fit for everyone).

Thanks,
Charlotte & family

We are looking for a reliable, warm and confident nanny to support with our second child arriving in April. Approximately 4-5 hours a day for 4 days a week (possibility to increase over time).

We also have a toddler who will be in child care and a medium sized hypoallergenic dog. We’re looking for someone interested in a longer-term role.
