Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Murrumbeena VIC

Hi there! I’m starting a new job shortly and I need help picking up my son, Benjamin, from 3 year old kinder in Carnegie on Thursday and Fridays. Kinder closes at 4pm so I’m looking for somewhere to pick him up and take him back to my place, play with him and feed him his dinner (which I’ll have prepared) before I get home around 6/6.30. We are a 10 minute walk away from the kinder or a short drive (800m)

We are a warm and welcoming family in Malvern East looking for an experienced, nurturing nanny to become an important part of our family. We are looking for someone to care for our 12-month-old son when I return to work in October from maternity leave. He is on a well-established routine and eats and sleeps well which creates predictable days and a content baby.

Position Details
• Location: Malvern East
• Start: October 2026 (we would prefer a couple of paid trials before this date)
• Days: Monday, Tuesday & Thursday
• Rate: $30-40 per hour, depending on experience and qualifications

Responsibilities
• We are looking for a safe, caring, reliable, organised and engaged nanny.

We're looking for a lovely, reliable and experienced person to become a regular part of our family and help care for our 13-month-old son, Arthur. We are based in Malvern East.

The mornings might involve playing at home, going for walks or local outings, visiting the library or playground, preparing and giving him lunch and following his usual routine.

We're hoping to find someone who we can build a long-term relationship with. I'm planning to return to work next year, so there is potential for the role to grow into 2 full days per week if we're a great fit.

- Confident caring for him independently
- Reliable, responsible and proactive
- Happy to follow our routines and parenting style

A car is not essential, although the ability to drive would be a bonus.

We're a relaxed and friendly family and would love to find someone who becomes a familiar and trusted person in Arthur's life.

If this sounds like you, we would love to hear a little about yourself, your childcare experience, your availability and what you're looking for in your next family.
