Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Somerville VIC

**Immediate start - in home educator position **
We are looking for one new team member for an in home care position. It is a full day on Thursday with some 3-6pm shifts as well (flexible on days). Some ad hoc weekend mornings would also be required.

You must have (or be willing to have)
- a car and a drivers licence
- a WWC
- first aid
- have completed or be enrolled in an early childhood qualification. This is not an option - it is a requirement of the funding.

Must like animals asd we have dogs.

$200 per week!
Flexibility appreciated. Our current carer is moving and we have been lucky to adjust shifts where needed each week. Usually working under the hours advertised with a weekly payment on Friday.
* One child - 10 years
* Two to three days per week Mon: Tues/Thurs with occasional extra pick up or drop off depending on the week.
* Before school: Pack school bag & drive from Frankston to Mt Eliza (7.15 -8.30am )
* After school: Collect from school, assist with homework, make snack (3.30pm-5.15pm)

We have a usual sitter, but she is doing a placement for four weeks from August 24, until the end of term 3.

I have three kids in primary school this year: twins in grade one and a son in grade four. We live in Frankston South. I'd love someone to pick them up from school two nights a week, and take them home to cook dinner, before my husband/I get home. Usual hours required are 3-7pm, Monday and Thursday. However if you’re perfect but those two days of the week don’t work, I might be able to alter the days I go into the office. So please don’t be put off by this. I'm hoping that there's an experienced nanny available who can help with this. On a Thursday we may need you to drive our eldest son to Cubs on your way home. But we would organise that with you. Also please note, I don't actually mind if you're a smoker, but ideally not around the kids. I look forward to hearing from you. :) Natasha

Hi everyone ❤️

We're looking for a really special, experienced nanny to care for our beautiful 2 year old daughter one day a week, either every Tuesday or every Thursday, in the Seaford area.

We're hoping to find someone over who has extensive experience with toddlers, particularly 2 year old and excellent, contactable references. More than anything, we want someone gentle, warm, patient and genuinely nurturing who understands toddler emotions and will take the time to build a really strong and trusting bond with our daughter.

She's a bright, funny and affectionate little girl who loves animals, being outdoors, music, playgroups and learning new things. We'd love someone who is happy to take her to local playgroups, library sessions, parks and little adventures.

We're looking for someone with current First Aid and CPR, a Police Check, Working With Children Check, a driver's licence and safe, reliable car. You would also need to be comfortable working in our home with disclosed nanny cameras.

We're really hoping to find someone long term who becomes a trusted and valued part of our family, rather than someone who is simply there to supervise her. ❤️

If this sounds like you, please send me a message telling me a little about yourself, your experience specifically with toddlers, your availability, qualifications and references. 😊

Hi there,

I’m looking for a warm, reliable person to care for my 9 month old on Thursdays between 9-3pm. I am currently pregnant with baby 3 and in need of help with cleaning up the house, washing the floors, wiping down the bathrooms, dinner prep and maintaining washing.

I would use this day to run errands and would be in and out of the house.

Please let me know if you are keen

We're looking for a babysitter to help our family while we're visiting Melbourne & Merricks North in August for my mother-in-law's 70th birthday.

Initially, we'd love someone to assist my husband on Saturday 8 August (3:00pm - 7:00pm). He'll be there the whole time, but with me away we'd appreciate an extra pair of hands, particularly during bath and bedtime, so everyone can get to know each other and make sure it's a good fit.

If all goes well, we'd also be looking for help on:

Friday 14 August: 12:00pm - 4:00pm (Melbourne)
Saturday 15 August: 3:00pm - 11:00pm (Merricks North, near Jackalope)
Sunday 16 August: 8:00am - 4:00pm (Merricks North)
There may also be some additional work on other days once we have firmed up our plans a little further.

A little about us: We live in Dubai (but originally from Melbourne) and are coming back for the celebrations. We have a wonderful 3.5-year-old daughter who is completely Frozen-obsessed, and a happy, easygoing 9-month-old son who is generally very chilled. Our daughter can be a bit shy around new faces which is why we'd love you to help out while my husband is around initally.

If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, we'd love to hear from you

Hello there! My name is Mike I am based in Carrum, I have two children (12 & 15) and our Labrador pup Roxie. They live with me one week on one week off, starting and ending every second wednesday. My daughter is 12 and I am looking for someone suitable to take her to school and pick her up in Mornington. Pick up time would be 8:20am. I am also looking for someone to assist with some cleaning once a fortnight.

I’m currently looking for someone reliable and caring for school drop-offs 1–3 times a week, with the occasional weekend shift as well.

The hours would generally be around 6:15am–8:45am, although most mornings it’s mainly being at the house until just after 8 before walking my son to school depending on the weather. We’re based in Carrum at the river close to the beach.

I’m a solo mum and work as a midwife, so reliability and consistency are really important for us. My little boy is 7 years old, and I’m hoping to find someone long term to help keep things stable and familiar for him. Our babysitter/nanny of the past 3 years has recently become a kindergarten teacher, so her availability is now very limited.

Would love to hear a bit about you and whether this kind of role might suit you.

Hi all,
Our wonderful babysitter has recently left to begin a full-time job, so we’re looking for another friendly and reliable babysitter to help with our son’s kindergarten drop-offs and pick-ups each Thursday.

The role would include:
• Kinder drop off and pick up
• Hanging out with our son before and/or after kinder

Must have experience with young children and a driver’s licence and comfortable transporting. Ongoing weekly role (with possible extra hours during school holidays)

Please message if interested 😊

We're looking for some help with our boys 5 and 2.5 years old. We are based in Beaumaris.

I’d like assistance on Tuesday (or Wednesday) mornings from 6:30am-9am to assist with morning routine - get the boys up, breakfast, get them ready, entertain them and take them to daycare (I have two car seats that will need to be installed into your car).

It is likely we will extend this to include an afternoon 3:30pm - 6:30pm to pick up from kinder and daycare, prepare kids dinner if not ready earlier, bath and get ready for bed. This will be based on finding the right person, and will be something we look at down the track.

I'd also require extra help when I have work trips organised, for example July 21-24th I am away, so we would require some additional mornings/afternoons to help if you had the additional availability.

We have two high energy boys so I'd be looking for someone who is confident to look after them, who would be happy kicking the ball with them and planning activities that match their interests. We have many parks nearby and the boys love going for a walk to play there. They also love a baby chino down at the local shops!

Our boys are very loving and we want to view this person as part of our family so the right person really matters. They will be responsible and have a WWC.

Please let me know if you sound like the right person to join us. We are interested in finding a match as soon as possible with an immediate start.

Happy to discuss hourly rate if you are the right person.

Hi, I'm a solo mother of twin boys based in Beaumaris. I am looking for help with picking up (or taking) my children from school in Camberwell each day. This will be a couple of hours a day, at least 4 days each week during the school term, starting May 2026. However, it's important that you forge a strong relationship with my kids, so I would be interested in you starting sooner on a less frequent basis, if that's of interest.

The boys speak French and English. Ideally, if you speak French that would be a huge bonus.
Looking for someone who doesn't get overly stressed about typical kid stuff, and doesn't mind the drive from Camberwell to Beaumaris. You must have your own vehicle and be happy having booster seats in the car when you drive them. Most likely looking for your help in the afternoons, Monday through Thursday, potentially eventually Friday mornings, too.

Needing someone reliable - this is key. If you can't commit for the full 2026 academic year then please don't apply - my kids will become attached to you (and I will need your support).

Thank you if you have taken the time to read this far! Hope to hear from you. Rate negotiable depending upon experience.

We are specifically looking for a passionate and patient student from University, preferably majoring in Occupational Therapy (OT) or Education (Special Education/Inclusion focus).
Since his executive functioning skills are still developing, he does not just need a traditional tutor who sits and checks homework. He needs someone who understands neurodiversity and is familiar with dynamic teaching strategies like "scaffolding" (breaking down tasks into smaller, manageable steps) to help him build independence without feeling overwhelmed.

Hi,

I'm looking for someone to do school drop offs and pick ups mid July to August for my 2 boys (Moorabbin to Highett) with view to extend if it suits and more flexibility with days/times for the right person beyond August.

Currently I need Wednesday mornings and afternoons and Thursday mornings and afternoons. I leave at 7.45 and the boys need to be at school at 8.30. Pick up is at 3.05 and a parent is usually home between 3.30 and 3.45 (4pm at the latest).

There is the opportunity to extend this if it suits you and long term we can definitely look up mixing days/times ie Wed pick up, Thursday both, Friday drop off, as I have some flexibility with my roster.

Please let me know either way if interested.

Cheers

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.

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.
