Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Waterways VIC

Hi, our nannys uni schedule has changed and I am looking for someone fun, reliable and responsible to help my 6 year old & 10 year old get ready for school and then drop them off at school, every Wednesday morning and ever second week wed morning and afternoon and Thursday morning and afternoon as I share custody with their Dad. The school is in Beaumaris. They are pretty good kids so it’s a fairly easy role, getting them ready for school and tidying up before driving them to school, the. Fetching them, driving them home and giving them a snack before leaving around 4.30. I am a single mom who works full time so I need help! We are in Edithvale.

We require a nanny to help out with our two daughters (7 & 12) after school and in the evening. Job would entail school pick ups, driving to clubs (e.g. gymnastics) and evening meal prep for the girls. Monday to Thursdays after school required with Fridays optional.

Hi, I'm a solo mother of twin boys based in Beaumaris. I am looking for help with picking up (or taking) my children from school in Camberwell each day. This will be a couple of hours a day, at least 4 days each week during the school term, starting March 2026. However, it's important that you forge a strong relationship with my kids, so I would be interested in you starting sooner on a less frequent basis, if that's of interest.

The boys speak French and English. Ideally, if you speak French that would be a huge bonus.
Looking for someone who doesn't get overly stressed about typical kid stuff, and doesn't mind the drive from Camberwell to Beaumaris. You must have your own vehicle and be happy having booster seats in the car when you drive them. Most likely looking for your help in the afternoons, Monday through Thursday, potentially eventually Friday mornings, too.

Needing someone reliable - this is key. If you can't commit for the full 2026 academic year then please don't apply - my kids will become attached to you (and I will need your support).

Thank you if you have taken the time to read this far! Hope to hear from you. Rate negotiable depending upon experience.

Hi Nannies!

We’re on the hunt for a new Mary Poppins to join our family and care for our three adorable little characters. We’ve just had a period of no nannies so this will be a bit if a change, bear with us!

A bit about us:
• Location: McKinnon/Bentleigh/Ormond (3204)
• Hours: Mostly between 9/9:30am–4:30/5pm, Monday to Friday depending on my meetings
• No weekend, public holiday, or after-hours work
• Three little ones:
- 5yo girl (at school)
- 3yo girl (at kinder 2 days a week)
- 2yo boy (sweet, funny little man with a big smile and growing into his own adorable personality, very chatty!)

We think they’re hilarious and delightful little monsters — you’ve been warned!

Our vibe:
The kids are creative, curious and full of energy. They love:
• Arts and crafts, painting, play dough, dress-ups
• Roleplaying mums & dads, café, etc.
• Parks, playgrounds, pram walks, bike rides, scooting, picnics, collecting leaves and sticks (which stay outside!)
• Puzzles, games, music, dancing and sensory play
• Cars, blocks, magnetic tiles, footy or throwing a ball and dancing!
• We’ve also got two friendly, fluff balls who are part of the family — they’ll want pats too!

Dad works full-time mostly in the office, and I (Mum) mostly work from home — I’ll be around but busy working, available to check in or help when needed.

What we’re looking for in our dream nanny is:
• Not responding to this with an AI generated response (we can tell)
• Warm, fun, patient, and genuinely loves spending time with little ones. Be engaging enough to get the kids comfortable pretty quickly (this one’s important, I’m around but need to know the kids are comfortable and prefer to be with you during nanny time so I can work)
• Experienced with multiple children at once
• Experienced with girls e.g. can do girls’ hair, can play pretend makeup, draw, be creative with crafts, etc.
• Professional, punctual, organised, clean, responsible and easy-going (I’m quite OCD with toys being put away in their place and things cleaned properly)
• Confident in the kitchen for preparing kids’ meals/snacks (at a minimum you can scramble eggs, make omelettes, French toast, if not, I’ll be teaching you :P)
• Able to work around naps (2yo still naps consistently in the middle of the day)
• Proactive with light household help: e.g., folding laundry, tidying kids’ spaces, unpacking groceries
• Engaged and educational – helping our older two with early literacy, counting, days of the week, etc. and our little one with learning words (no TV plonking)
• Active and hands-on — walks, babycino outings, playgrounds, books, crafts, cubby house builds, etc.
• Skilled with bathtime routines: drying hair, moisturising, managing post-bath chaos!
• Comfortable around friendly dogs

Must-haves:
• WWCC
• Police Check
• First Aid (current)
• Driver’s licence & reliable transport (comfortable driving a larger car to kinder/school/swimming/etc.)
• Willingness to care for sick kids from time to time (we’ll take over if theyre super sick)
• Generally be awesome with them/don’t turn out to be a psycho kidnapper.

Rate:
Rate is negotiable based on experience. We've been through a few nannies and can now definitely tell when someone clicks with our family.

If you’ve made it this far and found yourself nodding along — we’d love to hear from you!
Please comment with your age, experience, and expected rate, and we’ll be in touch with suitable candidates for next steps.
Looking forward to finding our next superstar!
