Hi,
We are looking for a babysitter for after school pickups Mondays and Thursdays, including taking the kids to and from activities.
We live in Surrey Hills and have 3 kids, going into grades 2, 4 and year 7. Babysitting will be primarily for our primary school aged boys, who do basketball and swimming, and we’re also looking for the evening meal to be prepared (and served to the kids if needed, depending on the time) - these won’t be gourmet and we’ll leave instructions!
Generally hours would be from school pickup to about 6/6.30pm, but where needed we can flex as hopefully could you.
If this sounds of interest to you, please get in touch, I’d be happy to have a chat and answer any questions.
Thanks very much,
Stephanie

Hello,
My name is Chris, and I wanted to introduce myself and our family. We’re based in Surrey Hills and are currently looking for a babysitter for our daughter, Jazz, who is 5 months old. We also have a 9 year old, Lia but we would be looking after her and dropping at school etc.

We’re looking for someone available for full days, approximately 7:30am to 4:30pm. Care would be for Jazz only, and we’re hoping to find someone reliable, caring, and comfortable looking after babies of this age.

If this sounds like something you might be interested in, we’d love to have a chat and see if it could be a good fit.

Thanks so much, and I look forward to hearing from you.

Chris and Anna.

We’re looking for someone awesome to take care of our two boys aged (almost) 4 and 6 at our place in Surrey Hills.

We need someone reliable that can commit ongoing for one day a week on a Thursday (with the potential option of a second day on a Friday). Hours would generally be 7:30am to 5:30/6pm.

Whilst there might be a little bit of food prep needed for the kids, the main focus of the role is caring for and playing with the boys.

The 6 year old will be at school from 9am-3:30 so drop off and pick up would generally be part of the routine for the day. School is a few blocks walk or the car will be available on those days if needed.

Both boys are happy, energetic and always on the go. We are close to a couple of great parks which they love going to and the car is here some days for trips to the zoo and other activities.

We are looking for someone kind, reliable, and confident who will become a trusted part of our family.

We’re looking for a caring, reliable casual babysitter/nanny to look after our two boys (16 months and 3 years old) in our home in Templestowe Lower. The role is a minimum of one day per week, with the possibility of additional days as needed.

Your days with the boys will include walking to the park, riding bikes, playing sports, and enjoying creative activities such as arts and crafts, games, and simple cooking or baking together.

During nap times, we’d appreciate light household help such as folding laundry, tidying play areas, cleaning up after activities, and occasional vacuuming.

We’re hoping to find someone warm, energetic, and genuinely engaged with little ones. If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!

Hello, I’m looking for a regular nanny to help with kinder/school pick up on Mondays - mainly collecting and hanging out with my 4 yo, as my older kids finish school late that day. Detail: 2.45pm-5pm Mondays; kids are 4 (boy), 6 (girl) and 10 (girl); our car will be provided for kinder/school pick up; potential for additional ad hoc babysitting if interested (e.g. evenings, school holidays).
My kids are pretty relaxed and enjoy low key activities like going to the park, doing craft, reading, imaginative play and jumping on the trampoline. I was a nanny when I was a uni student, and would welcome someone like my younger self! If you're keen to have a regular part time nanny job and get to know some fabulous kids, please get in touch.

We are offering a role that that involves wraparound care (Mon- Fri, mainly school pickup and activities in the afternoon) and Sat mornings approx 9:30am-1:30pm. We expect the chosen candidate to work approx 8-12 h/week.

Our daughter Tessa is 6yo and starting Year 1. She is extremely energetic, loves dancing, singing, swimming, skateboarding and pretending to be an adult. Our nanny needs to be a bit sporty to keep up with her (eg excursions to the zoo, swimming pool, roller blading, ice skating etc). Our son Harry is 7yo and on the Autism spectrum. He is funny, imaginative and attends mainstream school (where he is very cooperative and well-liked) but can be highly inflexible and controlling at home. He likes video games, Harry Potter and haunted / scary themes.

We are seeking a reliable nanny who brings high energy, creativity and patience. A drivers licence and car is required. We LOVE students in early / primary education or allied health!

We do not expect you to care for both children alone for extended periods and will provide appropriate training and support. Due to Harry's tendency to control Tessa, our aim in having a babysitter is to separate the kids on different excursions or supervise specific activities. We need someone who understands that sometimes we agree to unreasonable to demands from Harry at home because he has put in a huge effort to fit in at school. Although we can get extremely frustrated, there is no place for old-fashioned discipline in our house (we try to use a collaborative approach).

I’m Pia, mum of 3 bubbly children looking for someone to help with school/kindy drop offs in the mornings and then pick ups from 3pm in Glen Iris, on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. It would be split shifts, about 1.5-2 hours in the morning and then 3 hours in the afternoon.
I have a 4yr old boy at kindy, 7yr 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 these activities and looking after the remaining kids etc..

Please contact me if you are interested.

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
