Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Springvale VIC

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.

We're looking for our first nanny as I return to work following maternity leave.

We have three wonderful children:

A 4½-year-old daughter
A 3-year-old son
An 8-month-old baby girl

We're looking for someone who is warm, reliable, and experienced with both babies and young children.

Requirements:

Current driver's licence and reliable car.
Available to do kinder drop-off and pick-up for our eldest on Mondays (approximately 5 km away, around a 10-minute drive each way).
Comfortable around dogs, as we have a very friendly Cavoodle.
Previous experience caring for babies and young children is essential.

Hours:
Most shifts will be 7:45 am – 5:30 pm. Some flexibility would be appreciated, as I may occasionally pick up extra work shifts, including approximately one Friday per month.

If you think you'd be a great fit for our family, we'd love to hear from you! Please get in touch for more information.

Hello,

I am looking for a reliable and warm carer to help with my 9 year old son. He has autism but is high functioning. He is a beautiful sweet natured little boy and is in grade 3. My son is friendly and loves people and loves playing with trains, Harry Potter, titanic, boats and building lego.

Must drive and have own car as it would involve taking him to and from school. Given he is eligible for funding the person must have an early child care qualification eg cert 3 in early childcare or currently studying it. Competitive hourly rate

What the role involves
* School drop off and pick up (will compensate for petrol)
* My son is fairly independent with getting ready and will be ready for school by the time the person arrives at 7:30 am. I usually have lunches packed but on the odd occassion it may involve finishing lunch off.
* Playing with him in the morning
* After school helping with homework
* Reminding him to have a shower (he can shower himself)

Essential criteria
* Experience with children
* Current first Aide
* Own Car
* Studying or qualifications in early child care

Desirable criteria
* Previous experience with autistic children or a willingness to learn more about how to support autistic children

This role would suit someone local who is studying (early child care) or easing back into work.

Hello wonderful community and hopefully hello to our forever nanny!

We are looking for a nanny in Aspendale, for our larger than life, rambunctious boy! He is absolutely bursting with energy, excitement and lots of joy.

We would love our nanny to really become part of our family as we have very little support and miss a grandmother figure in his life. A nurturer, warm character, but equally someone who has high energy, loves to laugh and can keep up with this larger than life clown.

Min 30 hours per week, paid each week (even if worked less then 30), max 35, but days and exact hours may vary each week. A typical working week would be 2 full days 8-5:30 and one to two half days 8-1pm. We are both doctors so our schedules are a little variable week by week so would require someone flexible. Weekdays only and no evenings required.

WWCC and first aid is a must.

Starting asap, and going to February minimum, hopefully longer. As mentioned we would love an older female who is looking to adopt a family forever. For the right person we are willing to move mountains!

Kindly contact me, thank you! ☺️

Looking for experienced nanny (or nannies) to help mum with the after school hours on some of the weekdays (3:30-7:30pm but flexible on exact times) for 2 children (1.5 and 3.5 years old).

Mainly to play with the children, and help mum with the dinner/bath/bed routines on weekdays.

Potentially looking for before school sessions in the near future.

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.

Looking for a few babysitters to cover when I work or have outside school hours appointments. 2 toddlers during the day and at other times there will be an independent and mature 8 year old.

Hi Nannies

Our healthy 8 month old daughter Aurora is looking for her first Nanny.

Short term, we are looking for someone to take the pressure off mum for about 3-4 hours on the 19th from 1-2PM. We believe we need help with the supervision of the bub, some light house cleaning (dusting, window cleaning, vacuuming, mopping, emptying the washer/dryer and maybe very light meal prep. ***No bathroom, toilet cleaning or kitchen appliance cleaning expected. Vacuuming and mopping is only needed in living and dining (wood floor), as a robot takes care of the rest of the house.***

Long term we would like to make this a weekly or fortnightly thing, and will likely need help occasionally with looking after the bub if we are unwell, or have work. We would most likely need someone with availability on Wednesday/Thursday and/or the weekend.

A little bit about us:
We are a couple in our 40s, and being first generation immigrants from Eastern Europe, we have no family here to help us with the bub. We live with a small (3.5kg cavoodle) dog in a double-storey house, with the living areas downstairs, and the baby's room is upstairs.

I have a 12-month-old baby boy who is playful, active, and full of energy. He is still adjusting to eating solid foods and loves interacting and engaging with people.

We also have a very friendly 4.5-year-old family dog, so it would be wonderful if the person caring for our son is comfortable being around dogs.
