We are seeking an experienced nanny for our 19-month-old son (Max) on Mondays (ideally between 8:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.). Max is a happy and active little man who loves exploring the outdoors, including going for walks, going down the slide, and playing hide-and-seek. He is very curious about his surroundings and people. Therefore, we feel someone with energy, creativity, and a warm personality would best fit.
Our amazing nanny Lucy is headed back home to Scotland in June, and while we’ll miss her hugely, we’re looking for someone just as kind, capable, and down-to-earth to join our family long-term.
We’ve got three awesome, active kids and a busy household, and we’re looking for a nanny/house keeper who’s practical, warm, and great with kids.
The Role – What We Need Help With:
Monday to Thursday, 2.30pm–7.30/8pm
Occasional Fridays during the day
Extra hours/full days during school holidays
You’ll be supporting us during the after-school stretch and helping keep the house ticking along. That includes:
School pickups (you’ll need a full licence – we can provide the car)
Hanging with the kids after school – playing, helping with homework, and taking them to activities
Helping getting dinner sorted and school lunches packed - need to be competent in the kitchen.
Light household duties – tidying kids’ rooms, laundry, changing bed sheets, grocery shopping and keeping them pantry full
> (We’ve got a cleaner – so this is more about keeping the kids' stuff under control than doing deep cleans.)
You’ll be great for this role if you:
Genuinely enjoy being around kids and know how to connect with them
Speak fluent English – so you can help with homework and have easy chats with the kids
Are confident behind the wheel – driving is a must
Have some nanny or childcare experience, and can step into the flow of a family home
Why Us?
We’re a friendly, down-to-earth family who will treat you with respect and kindness. You’ll be part of the family – we’ve had great experiences with our nannies, and we want this to be a positive and enjoyable role for you too.
If this sounds like a good fit, we’d love to hear from you! Please get in touch and tell us a bit about yourself and your experience.

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 😊

Our vibrant family of five in Ashburton is on the lookout for a truly wonderful nanny to join our happy household! Meet our delightful trio: a charming 9-year-old girl, an energetic 8-year-old boy, and a playful 6-year-old boy.
We're seeking a special someone to provide before and after school care on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We're really hoping to find a nanny who isn't just great with kids, but also a fantastic organiser who can help ensure our home and all the children's activities are seamlessly managed. This means a few flexible hours during school time dedicated to kid-related household tasks, like preparing healthy meals, keeping on top of laundry, and baking those all-important school snacks.
Let's break down the days:
Mornings (7:15 am - 9:15 am): Your role would be instrumental in getting our children ready for school and assisting with their drop-off. The best part? The school is a short, less than 5-minute walk away, so no driving is necessary! There may also be an opportunity to get ahead on some meal or after-school snack preparation.
Afternoons (3:00 pm - 6:30 pm): This segment involves gathering after-school snacks, picking up the children from school (at 3:30 pm), and safely transporting them to their activities in a car we provide (most activities are approximately a 10-minute drive from our home). Upon returning home, your assistance with showering the children and some dinner preparation would be incredibly valuable.
If you're an organised, proactive, and warm individual ready to become an integral part of our family's routine, we would absolutely love to hear from you.
