Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Parkville VIC

We are looking for an experienced, fun and proactive au pair to join our family for 6-12 months! We require help with the children for about 35 hours per week, as well as light house duties, such a tidying, children’s washing and meal preparation. We will provide private accommodation for our au pair (which is a guestshouse separate to the main house) with its own bedroom, bathroom and kitchenette, as well as groceries and basic living expenses (such as wifi and netflix).

The au pair will be paid a weekly rate as agreed.

Please get in touch with any questions :)

We are looking for someone to look after our three children, (aged 12, 10 and 7) after school Monday-Friday. It would involve picking the youngest up, which is a short walk away and potentially driving to some activities, but not a great deal.

We’re keen to find someone who loves being around children, can prepare meals and is happy to help tidy up around the house.

Long-term, part-time nanny who is kind, organised, firm and responsible to look after my darling, sweet, social 5-year-old boy (I know all Mums think that about their children, but he really is). Every Wednesday and Thursday, every Friday alternating half and full day.
It would be somewhat long hours, but with the option to (or not to) take a few hours off in the middle of the day:

- 7am start, drop to school, some housekeeping, school pick up and then care until I am home, (likely around 6pm).
- 1 week out of 4, I would need you to stay overnight (in your own room with a king-sized bed and sharing an ensuite with the boy) in case I get called in to work. This has happened only once in the last 3 years, but I do need to be there within 30 mins, so it is much better if you are just at ours so I can just get up and go and nobody but me needs to wake up.

But, you would be suitably compensated! Some weeks would be not such long days, and there would be flexibility to scale up and down. You would have the option to use your own car (I would provide a booster seat) or use my car. There are lots of shops / cafes / supermarket in easy walk, and we are close to bus, tram and train lines, but at the moment the school is a half-hour drive away.

Keeping a tidy and organised home is a big part of the role, but we have weekly cleaners as well, so don't expect cleaning (!). By far the most important thing is keeping my boy healthy, engaged and happy.

Start period really anytime from now. If this sounds like something you can help us with please contact me!

Hello,

I’m looking for a regular nanny/babysitter to join our village so two tired parents can have some time off each week. We want to find someone who can commit and be consistent so the kids can bond and feel safe and secure.

We have two energetic and headstrong children, Juniper who is 8 and Quincy who is 5. Juniper is creative, loves attention and is an expert negotiator. Quincy is more of a shy guy to start with and can take a little bit longer to warm up. He loves to climb and play card/board games, his current favourite is monopoly. Our ideal person would be patient, super fun and playful but also firm when needed.

Ideally we would like it to be every Friday. Sometimes it might be picking them up from school and other times it might be a later start and finish depending what we have on. There could also be some extra babysitting from time to time.

I should also mention we also have a rag doll called Vivo so you must also be ok with cats and fluff!

Please reach out if this sounds like a good fit for you :)

Hi
We are looking for someone to help us care for our two little boys - Eli (6 yo in prep) and Charlie (3.5 yo in 3yo kinder). They love imaginary play, music and dancing! They are both full of energy, love listening to stories and are fluent in French and English.
We are looking for someone who can
(1) come every Thursday morning from 6.15 to 9.15 - this will involve hanging out some washing and cooking something for the family dinner, then waking up the kids, breakfast, getting ready and doing school/kinder drop off (which is on foot); and
(2) is available every second Friday from 930-1230 to just look after Charlie. Will involve taking him to the park, playing, stories, lunch :-)
Sometimes we might need extra mornings and sometimes might be extra and/or longer fridays !

We're looking for a nanny/regular babysitter for our two boys: Teddy (4) and Joey (6) two nights a week on either Wednesday, Thursday or Friday in Clifton Hill. Shifts would include pick up from school in Clifton Hill and kinder in Collingwood, dinner and bath. It would be great to hear from anyone who would enjoy looking after our two energetic boys.

Hello :)

My name is Carly, and my husband and I are seeking a nanny for one day per week, for our 12 month old boy.
I will be returning to work in June and we have care with family members for a couple of days already.
The third day we are hoping to find a nanny who will come to our house and look after our bub for the day while I work. I will be working from home on this day, so can assist with things like naps in the beginning while he adjusts.
A little bit about our boy, H: He is crawling and cruising and very likely on the verge of taking his first steps!
He loves reading books, climbing, exploring outside, going to the park, dancing to music and walks in the pram.
He is screen free so we’d love for our nanny to come up with montessori style activities and games. However he is very content just hanging out at the park or building (destroying) lego towers.
H is currently on 2 naps per day (total day sleep around 2.5 hours) he’s usually either rocked or fed to sleep and goes down easily although we’d need to practice with a new person putting him to sleep.

The hours would be 8:45am - 5pm roughly, we can be slightly flexible on this.

You will ideally be feeding him lunch, so a small amount of clean up after this would be desired.
During his naps, if there is any light housework such as hanging a load of washing or tidying up toys, etc that would be appreciated.

We live in a small house in Seddon, with a very friendly cat.

Who we’re hoping to find: we’d love a friendly, confident nanny who’s had experience with babies/toddlers. Someone who will become a reliable and trusted person in our life, and a weekly bestie that H looks forward to seeing!

Any questions, please feel free to message me. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi there! We are looking for someone to care for our two children (8 months and 3 years) twice a month so we can have some couple time.

We are a single parent house hold, I work full time and have a 6yo & 7yo both boys. My 6yo is getting over welded at school and lashing out at everything in sight. I am in need of someone to care for him while I’m working until I can finish organizing supports for him. I will give more details later but I would need someone to walk him to school a few times a week and stay with home with him on Monday's as the school isn’t a good space for him. Do some play based learning as well where possible and have him clean and tidy after himself where possible. I am aware this is asking a lot, I am happy to be as flexible as I can. We need help and this is just another place I’m hoping to get some.

The role includes:
• School pick-up (very short walk from our house) and after-school care
• Taking our son to tennis (walking distance from our house).
• Taking our daughter to netball.
• Preparing the kids' dinner
• Helping with homework
• Playing with the kids and supervising showers/pyjamas
• Walking our friendly golden retriever
• Light household and home-admin tasks to help keep things running smoothly (e.g. dishwasher, kids’ laundry, simple meal prep, grocery runs etc)

We’re looking for someone who is warm, organised, and able to take initiative around the house while also being great with kids.

In addition, 6 hours during the day on Saturday or Sunday (e.g., 12-6pm).

Hello,
We are a young family living in South Yarra and have 7-week-old newborn twins, a boy and a girl. We are looking for an experienced nanny who can help us to look after the twins and perform light housework (putting on a load of washing, stacking a dishwasher, light tidying, folding baby clothes, etc.) Most of the time, one parent would be home during a nannying shift, so the role is essentially providing an extra pair of hands! Sometimes the role would involve looking after the twins so we can go to appointments and meetings.
We are looking for a friendly, nurturing and energetic person who loves children and ideally has experience looking after twins, and is happy to help us around the house. Ideally, we are seeking someone who can help in the mornings from around 9.30-12.30pm, Monday-Friday but we can be flexible on the days/times.
Thank you, we look forward to hearing from you!

It would also be helpful if you could assist with light kitchen tasks, such as loading or unloading the dishwasher, especially when he is asleep.

I need about three hours of help per day, though the exact time may vary depending on his sleep schedule. Thank you
