I’ve got two little boys (3 years old and 5 months old) and I’m looking for a nanny to help out two days a week. I’m heading back to work after maternity leave and need a hand during my busy hours—roughly 4–5 hours a day.
If the boys are napping or keeping themselves entertained, it’d be awesome to have a bit of help with some light housework (only if time allows, of course!).
Would love someone with experience looking after young kids around this age.
Our beloved nanny is pursuing full time study, so we are looking for someone to fill her role.
You will be caring for our 3 year old boy, and our 5 year old girl, including kinder and school pick ups.
Our 3 year old boy is talkative, active, cheeky and very affectionate. He loves creative play, books and anything related to dinosaurs and Thomas the Tank Engine. Our 5 year old girl is articulate, insightful and imaginative. She loves messy play and creating involved scenarios in her games. She is a kind, protective older sister.

• Thursday – 3pm to 5:30pm (2.5 hours), including kinder and school pick ups.
We would like a nanny who is kind and proactive. We are very intentional parents, and we would like someone willing to come alongside us and implement our strategies for managing behavior (the good, the bad and the sometimes ugly!)
Some light housework would be much appreciated – such as hanging out a load of washing, some folding, loading dishes in the dishwasher as they are created etc. Our kids love to help us and our current nanny with these tasks and enjoy being given little jobs to assist.
We also have a friendly 13yo border collie, so we are hoping for someone who is comfortable with dogs.

He is very curious about his surroundings and people. Therefore, we feel someone with energy, creativity, and a warm personality would best fit.
We are looking for a kind, caring and energetic nanny to help us in the home and with school pick ups / activities on the afternoons of Monday, Thursday, Friday. This role will take over from our current nanny who is moving overseas, looking to confirm someone in the role by 4 August.

3.20 - school pick up (Ivanhoe Grammar School)
3.30 - school activities (various locations max 3km from Ivanhoe)

Hi babysitters! We're looking for someone to help out for a few hours regularly on the weekends with our 2 girls aged 4 and 1. We can be flexible with day and time. My husband and I are both around, we just need an extra pair of hands so we can get a few things done!
Our last beautiful babysitter was with us for 3 years while she completed her degree and she really became like part of the family, so we're hoping to find someone reliable who can commit to regular hours each week and will be with us long-term. There will be opportunities for extra hours on school holidays, again we can be pretty flexible with days and times and are happy to work around uni and other job commitments.
The position will initially be mostly helping out with our 4-year-old - she loves to do arts and crafts, read, board games and puzzles and play outside. We have a great backyard and several parks within walking/scooting distance. As our 1-year-old gets a bit older there is also the potential for additional hours helping out with her during the week. We're looking for someone who is fun, kind, patient, helpful and reliable who wants to build a genuine connection with our girls. If this sounds like you or you have any questions we'd love to hear from you 😊
