Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Viewbank VIC

We’re looking for a caring, reliable casual babysitter/nanny to look after our two boys (16 months and 3 years old) in our home in Templestowe Lower. The role is a minimum of one day per week, with the possibility of additional days as needed.

Your days with the boys will include walking to the park, riding bikes, playing sports, and enjoying creative activities such as arts and crafts, games, and simple cooking or baking together.

During nap times, we’d appreciate light household help such as folding laundry, tidying play areas, cleaning up after activities, and occasional vacuuming.

We’re hoping to find someone warm, energetic, and genuinely engaged with little ones. If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!

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!

We would love to chat some more so please don't hesitate to contact me for my number to discuss further

Hi everyone,

I am currently looking for a caring, energetic, and reliable nanny/babysitter to look after my two young children (2.5 and 4.5 year old) from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM on the following dates:
School holidays : 17 dec to 26 jan 2026 .

But i am looking for someone to help me today 3 dec from 12:30 to 4:00 . Location Balwyn .

We are looking for a nanny to become part of our growing family. We currently have a 5 month old and are looking to have another baby next year.

Starting with Monday, Wednesday and Friday 9am -2pm, but this can be flexible if needed. With some extra evenings and the potential to travel with us while we are on holiday, interstate and overseas.

We run our own business so are flexible with work, but would love someone to be in the home to help with childcare and other household tasks.

Our two children are nearly six and eight years old. After many years with us, our current wonderful nanny is moving on. We are looking for a long-term nanny to become a new part of our family and help provide stability and security.

We need:

- Afternoons, 2-7pm Wednesday, Thursday, Friday (Mum and Dad arrive home just before 7pm)
- School pick-up (10 min drive, booster seats provided)
- Dinner preparation (reheat or simple preps), tidying, dishes
- Supervision of music practice and homework
- Extended hours are available for a household manager to support with other house cleaning, laundry and grocery shopping


Our kids are energetic and bright, and love reading, crafting, puzzles and games. Our family enjoys learning about languages, cultures and the natural world. We do not use screen-time during the week and have a gentle parenting style (or so others tell us!). We use structure and routine to help the rhythm and flow of our family in a light-hearted way and we don’t take ourselves too seriously.

Our ideal nanny has high emotional intelligence, is calm, patient, caring and understanding with children, particularly during times of high emotions. They value children’s voices and opinions and can support them with co-regulation when needed. They see themselves as more than a babysitter, take pride in their important position in the lives of children and have open communication with parents. Certificate III or higher in childcare would be desirable.

We look forward to embracing our new nanny, with their own style and the unique qualities they will bring in to our family.

Jacob and I are both passionate about family and friends, travel, healthy living and we enjoy our respective careers. We both work in hybrid roles (3 days in office, 2 days at home) so one of us will often be home working from the front office on alternating days.

Hi there!
Our family is looking for a nanny for Tuesdays from 8:15am-5:30pm (however we are open to increasing these hours to Monday, Tuesdays and Thursdays - same hours each day).
We're a young family based in Kew and have a 3 year old and 1 year old twins.
Our 3 year old will attend Kinder down the road from 9:15am-2:15pm on Tuesdays, so the day will consist of walking him down to Kinder with the twins and then hanging out with the babies until he finishes. Then ideally heading to the park for a play and feeding them all an early dinner. If possible some light household duties would be done in the babies naptime but not a necessity.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

The job will be on Wednesdays , from 8 am to 5 pm, and fetching the 3.5 year old to kinder (15 min walk) at 8.30 am and getting them home by 2 pm. We also would appreciate help with food prep and basic laundry (mainly folding or hanging clothes) if there is time but not essential.

A paid trial will be required before officially commencing.

We are looking at $35 per hour plus super and leave entitlements (4 weeks of annual leave , of which 2 weeks being the nanny’s choice), or the equivalent in casual rates if that is preferred and can be discussed.

We’re hoping to build a long term relationship with our nanny ideally beyond a year although we understand plans can change.
