We’re a busy family with three young boys and both parents working full time.

Friday: 8:30 am to 4:00 pm, with occasional 5:00 pm finishes
Rate: $35 to $40 per hour, depending on experience
Location: Hawthorn

The boys love getting out and about, including trips to the local library, Bounce, playgrounds, museums, the zoo and other activities. We both work from home, so having someone who can confidently take ownership of the day, plan activities and get the boys out of the house has worked really well for us.

There are no school or kinder pick-ups required.

You’ll need your own car and a full driver’s licence. We provide the car seats.

We also have a friendly family Groodle, so you’ll need to be comfortable around dogs, but there is no dog walking or pet care involved.

Alongside caring for the boys, we’re looking for someone who is happy to help keep things ticking over at home, including resetting the boys’ bedrooms, kitchen and living area, keeping on top of their things and preparing food for them during the day. We have a cleaner, so this is more about keeping the house organised and reset rather than heavy cleaning.

We’d love someone who naturally sees what needs doing, is confident taking initiative and can help make those two days run smoothly for the whole family.

Previous nanny or childcare experience is important, and we’re looking for someone who can commit to the role for the remainder of 2026.

Our current nanny, who we found through this site, is moving to regional Victoria and will be finishing up with us shortly. She is very happy to provide a reference about the role and our family.

A little about us:
My husband and I both work full-time, often working from home. Our 11 month old is a happy, funny, curious little boy. He's a great eater, and goes to sleep easily when he's tired. There is nothing we love more than playing with him and making him laugh!

We are looking for a warm, experienced nanny to complement our family and hopefully be with us for the long term. If you're a nanny looking for a new family, or know someone amazing who might be interested, please reach out!

I have a 5yr old boy at kindy, 8yr old girl in grade 2 and 10yr old boy, both at the same school. They have after school activities, so the role would involve getting them ready and driving them to and from these activities and looking after the remaining kids etc..

We are looking for an experienced, reliable, kind, fun and easy-going nanny who can help out with our 3 gorgeous girls (7, 5 and 4 years old)

We are looking for someone that can help on Monday and Tuesday after school hours (3 to 6:30-7.00pm).

The 3 girls are at the same school, which is walking distance or a short drive from our house.

The role would primarily be helping with:
- school pick-ups
- taking to after school activities nearby
- bringing home and helping with dinner/ bath

Please note, we do require you have your license. Our car can be used for pickups..

We are after Mon and Tues after school.

If this is something that you may be interested in, we’d love to hear from you.

Looking for someone for a Term 4 start, 3-7pm.

Two gorgeous kids (10 & 13). Includes school pick up at 3:30pm and then sports pick up later in the afternoon at variable locations - usually Glen Iris. After sports pick up it would be driving home and preparing an easy dinner for the kids.

Own car preferable (will pay the relevant and calculated ATO petrol rates).

We are looking for a reliable, capable and energetic nanny to regularly look after our almost 3 year old son on Mondays (2:15-6:15pm) and Tuesdays (8:15am to 6:15pm). There may also be opportunities for additional hours on other days of the week from time to time.

The usual tasks we would ask of you are:
- fun educational activities that encourage learning through play;
- occasional children’s activities that are within short walking distance of house;
- feeding (meals will be pre-prepared but may require heating);
- keep space organised and tidy including light cleaning and laundry as needed;
- bathing.

I’ll be travelling overseas with work and we need some help picking up / dropping off our 3 boys at school while I’m away. Also help making dinner for the boys, tidying house and walking our dog Frankie.

We’re looking for a warm, fun and energetic male babysitter/manny to become a regular part of our family’s support network and spend time with our two children, aged 8 and 10.

We’d particularly love to find someone who genuinely enjoys hanging out with kids and is happy getting outdoors and doing active things — kicking a soccer ball or footy, shooting hoops, bike rides, trips to the park, swimming, or whatever the kids are interested in. Our 8-year-old son would especially benefit from someone who can help him build confidence with ball sports in a really casual, fun way — we’re definitely not looking for formal coaching!

Our 10-year-old daughter may sometimes want to join in and at other times do her own thing, so we’re looking for someone who is equally happy spending time with both kids and following their interests.

Both children have lots of interests beyond sport and we’d love someone who can just enjoy being with them — whether that means Minecraft, Lego, drawing, playing games, going on an outing or having a kick at the park.

This isn’t intended to be a super-structured role. We’re really looking for the right person: someone kind, responsible, engaged and playful who could ideally build a great ongoing relationship with the kids. It could suit a uni student, teacher/PE teacher in training, sports coach or someone already working with children.

Initially we’re thinking a few hours once or twice a week, with flexibility for additional babysitting, weekends and school holidays if it suits everyone.

A current Working With Children Check is essential, and we’d also require references and a police check. A driver’s licence, first aid qualification and previous experience with primary-school-aged children would be highly regarded.

Most importantly, we’re looking for someone reliable and trustworthy who really likes kids and will make spending time together feel like fun rather than another organised activity.
