Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Sandringham VIC

Hi. We are a family of 5 living in Sandringham. We are exploring options for support with drop offs and collections on Mondays and Thursdays. Hours would typically be 7.30-9am and 3.30-6pm.

This will primarily be for our two school age children, but may occasionally also include our 4year old, who is at kinder locally.

Most sessions this will include taking them home (via activities) and preparing dinner for them.

It is important that you have your own car and ideally have allergy/anaphylaxis training.

Whilst we are looking for regular support we do also sometimes need a little flexibility, as there may be times due to special occasions, end of term, sickness etc. that we prefer to collect the girls ourselves.

If this could be of interest to you then we would love to discuss in more detail. Equally if you may be interested but need more details, please reach out. Thanks. We look forward to hearing from you.

We are looking for a vibrant and heart centred nanny to look after our 18 month old toddler girl. She is very gorgeous and bubbly. We live in Brighton East and work from home so are on hand if you need us. We would love experience in childhood education, but it's not necessary.

We’re looking for someone for 3.5hrs Mon and Tues 9.30 - 1 and Friday for 5 hours between 11-4 (for 2x toddlers - they are actually easy together as they entertain eachother - we are in the house if you need support from time to time with bed time etc). Happy to consider splitting it between two nanny's if the fit is better.

We are a very fun household that is lively and we are very kind and generous people.
My LinkedIn is @lauracraig84 if you want to take a look.
The role is to take care of everything to do with Bella - lunch, play, tidying etc.
I am also pregnant and will be having our next baby December 14th so would love the flexibility to help with odd things with the new baby too.

Would love to hear from you if this sounds like it could be a good fit.

Hi, I’m a solo mum of twin 6-year-old boys based in Beaumaris. I’m looking for some regular help with after-school pick-ups from Camberwell Primary School and bringing the boys home to Beaumaris, ideally a couple of afternoons each week during the school term.

I’m looking for someone warm, relaxed and confident with kids who would enjoy getting to know the boys and becoming a regular part of their routine. They’re energetic, funny and affectionate, and speak both French and English, so French would be a huge bonus (but definitely not essential).

You’ll need your own reliable car and to be comfortable with the drive from Camberwell to Beaumaris. I can provide booster seats.

Reliability and consistency are important, as I plan my work commitments around the school pick-ups. I’m ideally looking for someone who can commit on an ongoing basis rather than just for a few weeks.

There may also be opportunities for additional babysitting or extra hours from time to time if you’re interested.

Rate is negotiable depending on experience. Please get in touch if this sounds like it might suit you — I’d love to have a chat.

We are looking for a kind, reliable and energetic babysitter/nanny to help care for our three children (ages 10, 8 and 6) after school in Brighton.

The role is approximately 3 hours per afternoon, Monday to Friday, and would suit someone who enjoys spending time with school-aged children. Duties include school pick-up, taking the children to after-school activities, helping with homework/readers when needed, preparing a simple afternoon snack or meal, and keeping the children’s spaces tidy.

We are looking for someone responsible, engaging and organised who can become a trusted part of our family’s routine. A driver’s licence and reliable car are required.

Experience with children is preferred, but the most important qualities are reliability, warmth and a genuine enjoyment of caring for kids.

Nanny wanted — Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday, 9am–5pm — starting early February 2027.

We’re a young family in Brighton looking for a warm, reliable nanny to join us three days a week from the start of February.

You’d mainly be caring for our one-year-old — a happy, easygoing little one who’s a genuine delight to be around. Our three-year-old may also be home one day (subject to daycare availability), so at times it’d be both of them together.

These three days line up with the days one of us works part-time; the other works full-time. On most of them, one of us will be home working from home — so there’s a hand nearby if it’s ever truly needed.

Days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. There may be some flexibility for the right person.

Rate: $30 (happy to pay cash)

Driving: Licence required but not expected to pick up any kids from daycare etc

If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear a bit about you and have a chat. Thanks!
