Hello!
We are a family of 4 - we have two children, one 3 year old girl and one 4 month old boy - we would love someone to help us on a Friday for the full day. I will be around, but also in and out of the house (will take the 4 month old with me mostly!) My daughter loves craft, cooking, adventures to the library, park, zoo, cafe, museum etc! We have a dance class on Friday morning so would need someone to either take our 3 year old or assist me in taking her.
Hope to hear from you! We are in Princes Hill so very close.

- kinder/activity drop-offs and pick-ups, so a valid driver's licence and confident safe driving is essential
- Flexible hours – happy to discuss a schedule that works for both sides but ideally 2 pickups per week

**What we're looking for:**
- A trustworthy, reliable person who treats this as a long term commitment
- Comfortable driving regularly
- Experience working with children
- Danish or Japanese speaker strongly preferred (our son has a personal connection to both languages and we'd love for him to keep that connection alive through everyday conversation)
- Genuine warmth with young children and a calm, patient nature
- Previous childcare experience preferred; police check/Working with Children Check required

**What we offer:**
- Competitive pay, negotiable based on experience
- Flexibility with working hours
- A genuinely welcoming family environment

Hello, our names are Anna and Mike, and we live in Fitzroy North. We have two young daughters — Evie (3½) and Juliet (just over one). We are looking for a part‑time nanny to care for them two full days per week while we are working in the city.

The role includes caring for the girls, taking them on local adventures (parks, museums, play activities), preparing their meals, and creating a fun, engaging, and nurturing environment. We’re hoping to find someone who is energetic, kind, and an all‑round legend — someone the girls will genuinely enjoy spending time with.

We would also appreciate some light household assistance, such as tidying up at the end of the day or helping with dinner prep before we get home. Anything that helps keep the household running smoothly is a huge bonus.

The typical workday would be from 8:00am to 5:30/6:00pm, with some flexibility. We can be flexible with days, but ideally we’re looking for Monday and Wednesday, or Monday and Friday. We would also love additional help over the school holidays, when the girls are home more and we may need extra support.

Location: Fitzroy North

Hours: 8:00am – 5:30/6:00pm (flexible)

Requirements: Valid driver’s licence, Working With Children Check, and references

I am looking for a reliable, long-term nanny for my four-year-old daughter. She needs to be picked up four afternoons a week.

Hi, I’m Whitney, and I'm currently looking for someone reliable to help as I head back to work next month.

We have three children aged 9, 6 and 2½, and we've never needed to use anyone other than our parents for childcare.

Unfortunately, my husband's mum hasn't been in the best health recently, and my mum has a three-week trip booked starting the first week of my new job (it's always the way!).

My husband and I have often talked about how nice it would be to have someone we know, trust and can rely on whenever we need an extra helping hand.

The main role would be caring for our youngest, Lenny, who is 2½. He attends childcare on Wednesdays, so we'd be looking for care on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays during the three weeks my mum is away. After that, we'd likely need help one or two days a week to help share the load.

I'd love to have a chat about what we're looking for and see if it might fit with your availability.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thanks,

Whitney
