I am looking for a babysitter who can really engage with my kids who are 5 and 8.
They have vastly different personalities so you need to be able to speak with them and engage with them differently , creatively and compassionately and sometimes be a mediator ! It will really come down to how well you can interact with them and really how much they gravitate towards you.
Everything else that I would require is the standard police check , wwc , driving , responsibility and safety etc etc !
At the moment it is casual work moving into the holidays and then it’ll be regular !
Look forward to chatting if you’re free, available and willing to!

We are a family of four living in Eaglemont, just down the road from the station. My husband and I both work full time and are looking for someone to support us with mornings and afternoon for our five year old girl who started Prep this year and 3 year old who is in kinder.
We are looking for someone:
- Monday 3-5/5.30
- Tuesdays 7-9.15 and 3-5/5.30
- Thursdays 7-9.15 and 3-5/5.30
We are open to discussing hours, being a slightly later start in the morning or finishing a bit earlier in the day. Thursday afternoons could also be negotiable.
The job will include preparing breakfast, dropping/picking kids up from school, daycare/kinder, helping our daughter with some basic homework, taking our daughter to swimming lessons, some minor things around the house like hanging out washing or unpacking the dishwasher. The key thing for us is though is the kids happiness, so this is the main job!
Where it works, full days on a Monday and Tuesday over school holidays would be available, but this is not a deal breaker.
Must have WWCC, driver’s license.
$30-$35/hr depending on experience and level of support willing to provide.
We're looking for a Mary Poppins to care for our cutie pies in place of our regular nanny for just over 2 weeks while she is away and while I'm working mostly from home. We need someone to fill in from the 26/5/25 - 9/6/25 inclusive.
Here's our situation:
- McKinnon/Bentleigh/Ormond area (3204)
- We’re looking for a nanny who’ll click with our whole family. Hours would mostly be within 9:30-4:30/5, Mon-Fri
- 3 littlies: 4yo girl, 3yo girl and 1yo boy - we're biased but we think they're hilarious and cute little monsters
- No weekends or after hours work required
Here are the details (i.e. I’m slightly OCD) so if you’re half a chance so far, please read on.
Us:
We're a family with 3 kids - a 4 1/2yo girl who's at kinder 2 days a week (Mon & Wed), a 3yo girl, and 1 1/2yo boy.
- The girls are quite into their arts and crafts, currently obsessed with playing mums & dads, and love dress ups, and our little man is a super chilled toddler who fits into what we’re up to and is starting to have his own adorable personality, loves magnetic tiles, his footy, throwing a ball and loves dancing.
- The kids all love all the crafts, painting, play dough, sensory activities, bike rides, pram walks, picnics, playground time… so much playground time…, collecting flowers, leaves, sticks (that all stay outside), boardgames, puzzles, and heaps of other activities we have ready to go at home.
- We also have two dogs - small and medium fluff balls with big personalities who love pats.
- Dad works full time usually at the office, I work mostly from home, very occasionally go to the office meaning I'll very much be present while you’re here, and therefore am available for quick help, questions, etc. but I do need to actually work.
Our Mary Poppins:
- Has the standard checks: WWCC, Police Check, First Aid, reliable transport to our home, a licence and comfortable driving a big car to take kids to activities (swimming/ballet/kinder).
- Is comfortable with dogs: as mentioned we have 2 dogs who are very much a part of and involved with the family and will be all over you (they’re annoyingly friendly but zero danger).
- Is responsible, punctual and professional, experienced, easy going, and clean (there's that OCD) who can be present with them and can get the kids comfortable with you quickly. Can also be generally helpful to me and hands on with stuff like unpacking shopping, folding/putting away laundry etc.
- Is competent in the kitchen and able to help with light cleaning mostly after the kids (usually organising their space or making sure the place is back to normal). You'll need to prep lunches and a couple of small snacks and work around a nap for either one or 2 of them during the day, which is usually pretty consistent.
- Is really great at kids baths. Especially getting them out of it, moisturised and hair dried and done up!
- Can entertain the kids (no TV plonking); walks, going out to the park, playground, babycino cafe trips, ride/scooter, local community events, inside games, loves reading, playing, painting, crafting, making forts etc. etc.
- Can educate them - the older ones especially are at the stage where they're learning to read/write/count/learn days etc, we'd very much like to see them continue to progress with this.
- Be ok with them being sick. Given they don't go to childcare, they don't get as sick as many kids who do, but still be prepared for the occasional snotty nose or three.
- Generally be awesome with them/don’t turn out to be a psycho kidnapper.
Rate is negotiable based on experience, and to just to be upfront, we'd likely preference somebody a little more experienced at this stage. We've been through a few nannies and can now definitely tell when someone clicks with our family.
I’ve deliberately been pretty detailed so that if our unicorn nanny is reading and nodding along to all points so far, it’s probably a good sign. So if you’re interested please comment with an age/experience/expected rate, and we’ll message suitable candidates for more detail.
Thanks for playing along, looking forward to hearing from you!
