Hello, I am looking for a nanny who could assist with morning kinder drop off and afternoon pick up, post care after pick-up for 1 or 2 days a week, and occasional care during the day on Saturday from 10:30 am to 2:30 pm.
Hi! We are a family of 3 - I am Betty (30), my husband Anthony (34) and baby Aria (18m). Aria is absolutely the heart of our family - she is so curious and cheeky! She loves dancing to music, reading books and is hands down an outdoors baby who wants to be outside, rain hail or shine.
We are looking for a babysitter to cover my working hours on Fridays (9am-12pm (3hrs) and/or 2-5pm (3hrs)) starting on a weekly basis from 16 Jan 2026. Anthony and I will both be present and working from home, and Anthony’s workspace is in the living room (which is also sometimes a play space).
What we are looking for in a babysitter: Aria is by temperament cautious, sensitive and slow to warm up, so it is important to us that her babysitter is gentle, patient, empathetic and emotionally-attuned to her and her needs, and is willing to give her full attention and consistency to foster trust. She is also starting to experience big emotions, so we are looking for someone who is able to help her identify her emotions and comfort her through any feelings that may overwhelm her. We would like a babysitter who adopts screen-free and child-led play, and someone who genuinely enjoys playing and engaging with toddlers and is willing to follow Aria’s cues and interests (which might mean potentially repeating the same word over and over again, or playing the same game over and over again!). We are looking for someone to delight in Aria, encourage her and help her understand her experiences.
Some things we will not be expecting you to do include: putting Aria to sleep, making food (other than getting pre-made snacks for Aria), cleaning/housework.
Please reach out if you think you would be a great fit! Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi! We’re Jess and Sam, and we’re looking for a casual weekday nanny to spend time with our gorgeous 15-month-old daughter, Hazel.
Hazel is a happy, curious and adventurous little girl who loves to play, explore and connect with people. We’re really hoping to find someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with toddlers — someone who loves getting down on the floor to play, heading outside, and engaging with her in a fun, warm and playful way.
We’re also expecting our second baby at the end of March, so we’d love to find someone who feels like a good fit with our family and can get to know Hazel before her little sibling arrives. The role is very much about enjoying Hazel and keeping her engaged — light cooking or tidying would be a bonus but not the priority.
Jess is a clinical psychologist and Sam is a psychiatrist, both specialising in child and adolescent mental health. We live on a large block of land and spend a lot of time outdoors, so someone who enjoys nature and being outside would be a great match.
Above all, we’re looking for someone kind, reliable and playful who will adore Hazel as much as we do, and help make this transition into life with a newborn a little smoother for our family.
If this sounds like something you’d like, we’d really like to hear from you.
We are looking for someone to join our family full time (Monday to Friday - 7.30am to 5.30pm). We welcomed our twins in late October and have an almost 4 year old who goes to childcare full time. We are a very busy household with both parents working full time. The role will be full time, and we will pay a full time salary + super.
We would be looking for someone who will be part of our family and:
- Has experience looking after twins or multiple children (6 month +)
- Understands key development milestones and supports children with appropriate activities to achieve them
- Is a well rounded caregiver and loves what they do
- Is reliable (mum travels for work and we will need someone whom the family can depend on as we don't have any family nearby)
Duties:
- Sole focus on the twins
- Feeding, playing, development activities, putting to bed, bathing etc
- Folding babies laundry and doing their washing if its required
- Keeping the house tidy - putting away baby toys, clothing etc at the end of the day when they are finished for the day, emptying dishwasher if used. Cleaner comes fortnightly.
We are a family in Preston with a 3yo boy and 9yo girl. My wife and I are looking for help with pickups and dropoffs from childcare and before/after school care, most days of the week. There will be occasional evening care required until bedtime. Drop offs approx 7.30-8.30, pickups 4.30-6.30.
We are looking for a reliable person to get to know and grow with our children.
We are looking for a regular babysitter to help look after our children aged 3, 6 and 8. We have two loving German Shepherds so dog lovers would be great. We are an easy going family that really needs some help.
We are a family of five in Ivanhoe looking for a nanny to care for our 3 kids after school on Monday and Tuesday. Our current nanny's university timetable does not allow for her to continue her current role.
We have a 9-year-old boy (Grade 4) and 7-year-old boy/girl twins (Grade 2). You would be responsible for school pick up, taking kids to after school activities, doing readers with the kids, preparing kids' dinner and minor housework (cleaning lunch boxes, emptying dishwasher if required, dinner clean up).
School is within walking distance, or you will also have access to our car or 2 x booster seats if you would prefer to use your car. At this stage, the only after school activity is tutoring on Monday in Heidelberg for our eldest son, which would require you to drop him off at 4.30pm.
Also, if you would be happy to start earlier on one day to assist with kids' washing (folding and putting away) and other light household tasks, please let me know.
My husband and I work from home occasionally, so one of us may be home on some of the days, but we have a separate study and generally keep out of the way!
We also have an over friendly cocker spaniel called Frankie who will be happy to have a new friend to pester for pats.
Rate: $30 + p/h depending on experience (happy to discuss)
Please get in touch if this sounds of interest to you! Also happy to chat if you can only do some of the days required.
