We are looking for an easy going, energetic, play-loving babysitter to look after our 3.5 year old daughter for 4 evenings per week. From 4:30-8:30 pm, four week nights, no weekends. The right person would love playing games, have an active imagination and be fun loving. We will be at home. The role is play based.

We're a friendly family in Coburg looking for a warm, energetic nanny to care for our two children, Henry (5) and Sofia (2) on Mondays and Tuesdays from 7:30am–3:30pm, starting 3 August.

We're looking for someone who loves getting out and about and creating fun, active days. We'd love our kids to spend their days exploring playgrounds, museums, the zoo, libraries, bike rides, nature walks and other local adventures. On rainy days, we'd love someone who can keep them entertained with arts and crafts, sensory play, baking, games and imaginative play.

Henry is a curious and creative five-year-old who loves dinosaurs, arts and crafts, riding his bike and discovering new things. Sofia is our little firecracker. She is full of personality, always on the go, and happiest making everyone pretend coffees in her play kitchen.

Sofia still usually has a nap around midday. She doesn't nap well when out, so on most days we'd like her to be home around lunchtime (12-1pm) for her sleep. Occasionally, we're happy for her to skip her nap if there's a special outing planned.

We're looking for someone who is:

* Warm, kind and reliable.
* Active and happy spending lots of time outdoors.
* Confident taking young children on outings.
* Creative and able to keep children engaged at home when the weather isn't great.
* Comfortable preparing simple meals and tidying up after the kids throughout the day.
* Help out with light chores, especially never-ending piles of laundry 😅

We live close to plenty of parks, train station and family-friendly attractions, making it easy to plan fun days out.

If this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you!

Hi, I’m Whitney, and I'm currently looking for someone reliable to help as I head back to work next month.

We have three children aged 9, 6 and 2½, and we've never needed to use anyone other than our parents for childcare.

Unfortunately, my husband's mum hasn't been in the best health recently, and my mum has a three-week trip booked starting the first week of my new job (it's always the way!).

My husband and I have often talked about how nice it would be to have someone we know, trust and can rely on whenever we need an extra helping hand.

The main role would be caring for our youngest, Lenny, who is 2½. He attends childcare on Wednesdays, so we'd be looking for care on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays during the three weeks my mum is away. After that, we'd likely need help one or two days a week to help share the load.

I'd love to have a chat about what we're looking for and see if it might fit with your availability.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thanks,

Whitney

Hi!

We’re a warm, easy-going family in Burnside Heights looking for a caring, reliable nanny to become an important part of our daughter’s life.

Our daughter will celebrate her first birthday in February, and we’re hoping to find someone who will become a trusted part of her world as she grows through these precious early years.

The Role
Location: Burnside Heights
Day: Preferably Friday, although there is some flexibility as we’re currently finalising our work schedules.
Hours: 8:00 am – 6:00 pm (10 guaranteed paid hours)

I’m planning to return to work one day per week from November, and we’d love to arrange a few casual sessions throughout October so everyone has the opportunity to get to know each other before regular care begins.

* Preparing and serving her meals and snacks
* Following her sleep routine
* Drying and putting away her clothes
* If you’re comfortable with dogs, taking our friendly Cavoodle for a short walk with the pram

There is no general housework expected. We simply ask that our daughter’s needs come first and that you enjoy spending quality time together.

About us
We’re a warm, mixed ethnicity Etheiopian-Welsh family. Mum is a Maternal & Child Health Nurse and Dad is a Physiotherapist, and we both have a strong interest in children’s health, development and wellbeing.

We value responsive, relationship-based care and see this as a partnership. We’d love to find someone who feels comfortable in our home and genuinely enjoys becoming part of our daughter’s world.

Pay

We’re not simply looking for someone to watch our daughter while we’re at work. We’re hoping to find a kind, dependable person who becomes a trusted part of her world—someone she feels excited to see each week, and someone who genuinely enjoys watching her learn, grow and discover the world.

If this sounds like the kind of role you’d love, we’d be delighted to hear from you. Please tell us a little about yourself, your experience, your current work or study, and what draws you to working with young children.

We look forward to meeting you!

Looking for an English-speaking nanny for my 9-year-old son.

My son is Russian and has just started school in Melbourne. He speaks very little English, so I’m looking for someone to help him learn to understand and speak English through everyday communication.

After school, spend time with him: go for walks, play, talk, read, do simple activities, or cook together.

He is an active, kind boy who loves soccer, badminton, running, climbing, cooking, and helping in the kitchen.

If you have experience with children and enjoy spending time with them, please send me a message.



Thanks, Anya!

Hello

We are a family in Alphington with 3 children, a 10-year-old girl and two boys, aged 8 and 5. We are looking for a warm, fun and calm nanny to help get our 3 children to school and kinder.

The role is for Monday, Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 7.30-9.30am. Finishing time can be slightly earlier if this impedes other commitments.

The role will mainly focus on supporting our youngest child to get to kinder. Experience with, or an understanding of, children with ADHD/ASD will be preferred. The older children are fairly self-sufficient and will need minimal support completing their morning routine. But a few gentle reminders to stay on track will be required. :)

If time allows after drop off, some light tidying of the kitchen or hanging out of the washing would be very much appreciated but not expected.

Both school and kinder are a short walk/very short drive from our home.

If this sounds like a role you’d enjoy, we’d love to hear from you.

I'm after a regular sitter for my son, 11. One or two afternoons a week (flexible on which days), about 3.30 to 6.30 or 7pm, plus the occasional weekend.

He's auADHD but he's pretty independent, so it's an easy gig. He's a smart, funny kid who loves gaming and fun facts, and he has a special interest that changes week to week. Chess for a while, then golf, then table tennis, rock climbing, boxing ...you get the picture. You'd want to be someone who's happy to join in on whatever the current thing is.

If you're into gaming or full of random facts yourself, or have a special interest activity you two will get along.

He's been having his afternoons to himself lately and quite likes it, so part of the job is getting him off screens and doing stuff together. He'd game all afternoon if nobody stopped him.

Day to day it's pretty simple: hang out with him, make him some dinner, tidy the kitchen after.

If you've spent time around neurodivergent kids through work, family or your own experience, that's a big plus. He also has NDIS community participation funding, so if you're a qualified support worker or have an ABN activities and outings can be billed at support rates.

I'm a solo parent looking for someone ongoing and reliable, ideally a familiar face he ends up looking forward to.

If that sounds like you, tell me a bit about yourself and what days you're free.

We are a young professional couple with a 2 year old boy and a 10 year old cat living in the inner suburbs of Melbourne. Our little guy is super friendly, energetic and social. He loves to make friends with everyone he meets and has certainly pulled us out of our more introverted ways. We love spending our spare time visiting all the parks in the area, hitting up the library and experiencing all of Melbournes vibrant arts and culture scene.

We are looking for someone to help with our morning routine including getting our son ready for daycare including drop off and some simple meal prep for the family. Shifts would be regular 6.30-9.30am Mon-Fri with the occasional longer day to cover sick days etc.

Looking for an occasional casual babysitter for my healthy happy 16 month old twins! Evenings and weekend days mostly required.
