We are a small family of 3 and are looking for a nanny for our 8 year old son. Our son is a happy energetic loving child who is very good at maths, reading, music and spelling. We would like our nanny to be able to drive safely, pick him up from school, actively engage with his learning (writing and reading) and assist with his care in the evening - dinner and bedtime routine. Housework will be a part of the job description. Light cooking for our son and cleaning will be involved. We are both busy professionals and need someone who is trustworthy, structured/ organised, punctual and very reliable. Active engagement with his studies is important to us. Most importantly, a kind, patient and loving personality is essential for this job, given our son has autism and ADHD (diagnosed)

Our household uses structure and routine to help the rhythm and flow of our family in a light-hearted way and we don’t take ourselves too seriously.

We are a 2-dad family looking for an experienced nanny to provide childcare for our friendly & energetic 3-year old boy for either a half day on Tuesdays (1-6.30pm) or half day Tuesday and full-day Thursday (7.30-6pm) per week. You should be suitably qualified with a number of years experience with toddlers.

Applicants with experience supporting the changing needs of a medical/executive family a plus. Applicants must have current Police Check and Working With Children. First Aid training ideal. Bi-lingual applicants encouraged, including those with a keen interest in infant education through visual & verbal interaction and play.

Applicants must be comfortable working with a dog in the house. He's anxious at first, but will warm up quickly.

We're looking for someone who can commit to a long term position and is very reliable. Please don't hesitate to send me a message to discuss this role further.

Hello! We are looking for a Nanny to join our family for approx. 3 days per week to look after our 6 month old daughter Violet and 4 year old daughter Charlotte.

3 children, girl 11, boy 10, girl 8.

6-8 hours per week, 3-4 hours per shift, Wednesdays and Thursdays each week.

Mum and dad need help with afterschool and evenings. Picking kids up from school, meal prep, clean up, and taking kids to local activities (within 1-2kms of our home).

Mum and dad take turns to work from home so are on hand if needed.

Hello Nannies,

I’m looking for someone to help with afternoons/evenings for my two kids (9YO girl and 14YO boy) on Weds and Thursday.
Includes school pick up (mostly for the 9YO as the 14YO can often walk home or has activities), taking them to activities, organise dinner, put away kids washing, tidy toy room, make lunches for the kids the next day. At this stage, weds is netball training and Thursday swimming lessons for the 9YO. However it might also include picking up my son after school sport (still confirming the schedule).
If you can walk the dog before school pick up that’s also welcomed but would mean a start time of 230 instead of 330. Finish time will usually be around 7.

Note: We did have two wonderful nannies for 18 months but both managed to get internships. A friend of one of those nannies is doing Mon/Tues, so need someone to do the other days. I found having two nannies worked well where things came up and they could also fill in for each other.

Please reach out if you have any questions.

Thankyou,
Emma
