Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Preston VIC

Drop off and or pick up child from school

Hello!

My partner and I have two gorgeous, energetic little boys (2 and 4 years old). We are looking for an experienced babysitter, who is playful, creative and fun, to be our nanny on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, from 7am to 5pm.

From November to the end of the year:
- Tuesday is preferred instead of Monday, but could be reduced hours.
- Wednesday and Thursday you would be caring for our two year old only.

From January next year:
- Monday and Wednesday, you would drop off our big boy at kinder, then look after the little one for the rest of the day.
- Thursday, you would drop off and pick up from bush kinder (midday pick up) and look after both boys until I get home at about 5pm.

We are looking for someone who:
- Enjoys engaging in imaginative, fun and physical play (they love "rough and tumble", chasing games, taking the bikes / scooter out);
- Is passionate about early education and excited to plan and initiate interesting and creative activities at home (sensory, craft or activities based on the interests of the boys);
- Is confident planning trips out and about (either locally to the park or library, or in the car to the Museum / Zoo etc);
- Is happy to cook at least two dinner meals per week (recipes can be provided), as well as lunches and snacks for the boys;
- Has a valid driver's licence and is confident driving to outings (in our automatic car);
- Will take initiative with light housework including doing dishes, kids laundry, tidying up kitchen / living areas;
- May be interested in doing an additional evening or the odd weekday here and there.

We are looking for a nanny who will become a member of our family, and can commit to working with us until the end of 2026. We are looking for a nanny who would like a stable, part time job, with a salary. Someone who is happy to come on family holidays and travel with us as a family would be fantastic.

If this sounds like you, please get in touch!

Looking for a wonderful Nanny to join our family. Our children are fun and bright (aged 4 and 9) and looking for someone who is responsible and kind to look after them and bring a sense of fun and adventure. This role does require you to have a car as we will need your help with school pick ups.

Hi everyone,

Thanks so much for taking a look at our job! We have three children aged 11, 9, and 4, and we’re looking for someone to help one evening a week, a few hours during the day on another day, and occasionally on weekends.

Our wonderful previous babysitter has just started a full-time job, so we’re hoping to find someone new to join our family routine. We’ve had such lovely experiences with babysitters and au pairs over the years and really value the warmth and care they bring into our home.

It would be great if you could also help with some light household chores or cooking, especially if that’s something you enjoy.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Franziska

Ideally, our nanny would be able to assist with pick up/drop off regularly and then play with both children until we finish work at 5pm. Pick up/drop off can be done by walking with our pram (25 mins) or driving (5 mins) (car seats can be arranged but you will need your own car!)

5. Comfortable with pick up/drop off of our son to kinder; and
6. Comfortable with driving children locally - generally within the same suburb.

This position starts from Monday 12 January 2026, however it would be wonderful if our nanny could meet the kids and undertake some casual babysitting in the lead up to Christmas so that everyone is comfortable going into the role next year.

Hi! We are looking for a regular babysitter for our 5 year old daughter between the hours of 12 and 4pm once or twice a week on Monday, Wednesday and/or Friday. You will be assisted by our West Highland White Terrier, Mabel. Our daughter has recently been diagnosed with level 2 autism and persistent demand avoidance (PDA). Ideally you would have experience working with neurodiverse children. Thanks Brett & Stephanie

We are a happy family of 3 with no pets seeking a professional caregiver to help our young son continue to thrive while his mother returns to work part time. This job is to care for a 13 month old boy. 22 hours per week: Hours are 9-5 mon & Tues and 9-3 Wed. We don't require assistance with house work, but do need assistance with preparing his meals; just taking what's available/ precooked out of the fridge - lunch and possibly dinner if he gets hungry earlier. Also cleaning up his tray and bib after each meal and rinsing his bottles to run the sterilizer on those would be appreciated. The baby currently takes 2 naps a day, first nap is 1 hr and the second nap is 1.5hrs. If the baby is sleeping you can to to the local shops 5min walk away for lunch/ exercise / coffee break. The father often works from home and can help with diaper changing, lifting the baby and questions. Our son is a gentle, contemplative boy who loves to giggle at silly antics and play with his toy cars. We speak to him in two languages Serbian and English. We are 5 min walk from train station and there is a free parking space directly infront of our house you can use.

Nos deux enfants, Isidore (7 ans) et Artémis (4 ans), sont des enfants australiens bilingues. Ce sont des enfants assez sages qui adorent lire, dessiner, et qui regardent très peu les écrans. Ils ont fait 6 mois d’école en France en 2024, et nous habitons actuellement à Fitzroy.

Nous cherchons une babysitteuse française ou francophone qui peut garder les enfants lundi, mardi et/ou mercredi de 15h à 18h, c'est à dire:
- chercher les enfants a l'école et kindergarten (à North Fitzroy et pas loin loin de l'autre)
- déposer les enfants à des activités (judo et cours de piano, à Abbotsford et chez nous à Fitzroy)
- cuisiner un repas simple du soir certains jours

Les voyages se feront idéalement en utilisant votre propre voiture. Nous n'avons pas de voiture - par contre nous avons un vélo cargo electrique qui peut etre utilisé si la babysitteuse est très expérimentée avec les vélos.

En tout cas nous cherchons quelqu'un qui peut aider les enfants à continuer de parler et lire en français. Ça serait idéale pour quelqu’un qui aime les langages et les livres.

Merci et n’hésitez pas à nous contacter par la messagerie ici si vous etes disponibles pour une, deux, ou trois apres-midis par semaine

Ability to plan fun, engaging, and age-appropriate activities

Comfortable helping with meal prep, bath time, and daily routines

Able to manage both children’s bedtime every second Friday evening

Hi! We are looking for a long-term, part-time nanny to join our family, starting as soon as possible. Both parents work in healthcare with mum retuning to work at the end of December (Mon-Friday + every 5th weekend) after which we will need someone regularly at least once/week and up to 2 or 3 times/week on some occasions. The hours will likely be 7am-6pm. Dad is a shift-worker so the days we need someone can be variable but we will have his roster at least 1-2 months in advance so can give plenty of notice regarding which days we will require.
We have a (currently) 9.5 month old very cute and curious little boy who loves to dance to music, play, and read books. We don't do any screen time with him yet. He naps 1-2 times/day for roughly 1-2.5hr stretches.
Our ideal nanny will have worked with infants/toddlers previously, and also be willing to help with housework such as vacuuming, and laundry. Happy to discuss pay rate based on experience and willingness to assist with house chores. We'll be needing you from now till at least the end of 2026 and would love to have the right person for even longer!
We are a warm, respectful, and loving family who are keen to find their long-term reliable, genuine, and caring nanny. Please reach out if this sounds like the right fit for you (:

(P.s. we also have a Siberian cat though she won't require any additional care as we will feed her and she has an automatic cat litter)
