Hello!
We are a busy Beaumaris based family looking for before and after school care for our two kids, who are 9 (girl) and 4 (boy). Both attend school / kinder locally.
We require care from 7-10am and 3-5.30/6pm on Wednesday, Thursday and Fridays. Unfortunately we have no flexibility around these days / times.
The mornings will involve getting the kids sorted and ready for school / kinder, making lunchboxes, and then dropping them both off.
After drop off, you would come home for an hour or so to do a bit of a “reset”. This requires someone who has a fair bit of initiative in knowing what needs doing, for example, tidy the kitchen, load the dishwasher, fold and put away laundry, general tidy up / toys away.
The afternoons would involve school and kinder pick up, coming home, snacks, play and getting dinner organised for the kids.
We are an easygoing and friendly family, and we would love to find someone who can become an important part of our kids lives.
If you are :
- friendly
- easygoing
- caring
- ready to play lots of outdoor / ball games (4yo!)
- also ready to play lots of indoor card and board games (9yo!)
- up for a laugh
- have initiative when it comes to things that need doing around a house
- love dogs (we have two!)
Hi, I'm a solo mother of twin boys and looking for help with taking (or picking up) my children from Camberwell Primary School each day starting 2026. This will be a couple of hours a day, at least 4 days each week during the school term, starting 2026. However, it's important that you forge a strong relationship with my kids, so I would be interested in you starting sooner on a less frequent basis, if that's of interest.
The boys speak French and English. Ideally, if you speak French that would be a huge bonus. They will be attending a French language school next year. They do speak English.
Looking for someone who doesn't get overly stressed (or is comfortable being stressed), and doesn't mind the drive from Camberwell to Beaumaris. You must have your own vehicle and be happy having booster seats in the car when you drive them. Most likely looking for your help in the mornings, but if there are some mornings you can't do then I could do the morning that day and you could do the afternoon pick up instead. I do have some level of flexibility I can work with.
Needing someone reliable - this is key. If you can't commit for the full 2026 academic year then please don't apply - my kids will become attached to you (and I will need your support).
Thank you if you have taken the time to read this far! Hope to hear from you. Rate negotiable depending upon experience.

We are a professional couple looking for a caring, reliable, and experienced nanny to support our family and care for our children (aged 5 and 12).
You will be an experienced nanny or childcare professional with at least three years’ experience in nannying or childcare roles. We also have two lovable inside/outside dogs, so you’ll need to be comfortable with animals, including walking and overseeing them as required.
We are seeking someone committed to a long-term role. This is an integral position within our home, and you will be highly valued and respected.
Key responsibilities include:
• School pick-ups and driving to and from after-school activities

I’m looking for someone to join my team as a support worker for a beautiful 11 year old boy with Norries Disease who is blind and has autism and an intellectual disability. He is supported after school 3pm-8pm and on weekends and school holidays. Looking for someone who has availability on at least one of the listed weekdays and/or Sundays 10am-3pm or 3pm-8pm. The hours have potential to increase if desired by early next year as one of his current team members will be finishing her degree and moving on. All training and ongoing support is provided by me so no need for prior experience in support work but this is highly regarded. You would need to be mature, nurturing, and to have a passion for working with children and learning new skills as well as the ability to stay calm when child is dysregulated and adapt to ongoing training and feedback. Someone who is either working in or aspiring to work in behaviour support, occupational therapy, speech therapy or physio therapy would be perfect for this role as we work closely with these therapies and integrate goals into what we do with the children on a daily basis. Please note a drivers licence and access to a car is essential for the role. We are looking for someone who can make a long term commitment of at last 1 year and the role requires regular weekly work with the child to be able to work with him on the school holidays so I am not able to accept applicants who are looking for temporary or solely school holiday work.
