Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Waterford Park VIC

My ex-husband has changed jobs and can't get our children to childcare & before school care on Fridays and every second Monday. He would need someone at his house by 5:30 and then get the kids to childcare and before school care by 7am. Both childcare and before school care are a short 5min drive. You would just be required to dress the kids and ensure our daughters lunchbox is packed and in her bag. Job would be until further notice.
