Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Olinda VIC

Hi! We’re Jess and Sam, and we’re looking for a casual weekday nanny to spend time with our gorgeous 15-month-old daughter, Hazel.

Hazel is a happy, curious and adventurous little girl who loves to play, explore and connect with people. We’re really hoping to find someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with toddlers — someone who loves getting down on the floor to play, heading outside, and engaging with her in a fun, warm and playful way.

We’re also expecting our second baby at the end of March, so we’d love to find someone who feels like a good fit with our family and can get to know Hazel before her little sibling arrives. The role is very much about enjoying Hazel and keeping her engaged — light cooking or tidying would be a bonus but not the priority.

Jess is a clinical psychologist and Sam is a psychiatrist, both specialising in child and adolescent mental health. We live on a large block of land and spend a lot of time outdoors, so someone who enjoys nature and being outside would be a great match.

Above all, we’re looking for someone kind, reliable and playful who will adore Hazel as much as we do, and help make this transition into life with a newborn a little smoother for our family.

If this sounds like something you’d like, we’d really like to hear from you.

35.00 per hour plus allowances for petrol and after school snacks etc.

I am due to have another baby soon and need assistance with our 3.5 yr old child, looking after and entertaining her. She is an energetic girl and afternoons would be spent taking her to the park, playing games, baking with her etc. Mainly doing the fun stuff but still a bit of light cleaning up after meal times and tidying toys etc. (Maybe occasional folding and loading/ unloading dishwasher).

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.

Hello,
I’m seeking a reliable, very calm, and organised nanny to assist with care for my three children on a light, rotating schedule. I’ve attached a one-page calendar example (February–April) to illustrate the typical pattern and assist with availability checks.

Overview
• Children: 3.5 years (daycare), 7 years and 9 years (primary school)
• Locations:
o Residence: East Bentleigh
o School and daycare: Malvern East (close proximity)
• Full driver’s licence required
• A fully insured family vehicle is available for use if preferred, fitted with compliant child restraints

Core Requirement (Non-negotiable)
• Thursday afternoon, 3:00–6:00 pm (once every four weeks)

Duties include:
• Collecting the 3.5-year-old from daycare
• Collecting the 7- and 9-year-old from school (staffed pick-up area)
• Caring for the children at home until 6:00 pm
• Simple dinner prepared in advance for the children (reheating only on the night)

Preferred / Highly Regarded Additions
• Friday morning (school/daycare run) following the Thursday care block
(also once every four weeks)
• Monday morning (school/daycare run) where it aligns with my rostered day off (RDO)
(potentially twice per month)
These morning supports are preferred rather than mandatory and are shown as such in the attached calendar.

Important Notes
• Thursday afternoon care is the fixed anchor of the role, albeit infrequent
• Friday and Monday mornings are optional additions, depending on availability
• Monday morning support is RDO-dependent in practice and typically reduces during Term 2 and Term 3, resuming in Term 4
• All variations are communicated well in advance

The calendar on page 2 is a pattern example, a longer calendar can be provided once we are aligned.
If this role suits your availability, I’d be happy to discuss further details.
Regards
Daniel
