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.

2 kids aged almost 9 (beautiful girl) & 4 (cheeky boy).

Proximity to our location is favoured (Kew 3101). Drivers licence & own car essential. Car seats can be provided. All usual checks required.

Looking for someone reliable, safe, able to handle open communication & instruction, warm personality, self-driven & honest. Long-term casual position.

We are a small family of 3 and are looking for a nanny for our 9 year old son. Our son is a happy energetic loving child who is very good at math's, reading, music and spelling. We would like our nanny to be able to drive safely, pick him up from school, actively engage with his homework, projects, learning (writing and reading) and assist with his care in the evening - dinner and bedtime routine. Having a car and driving safely is very important. Housework will be a part of the job description. Light cooking and cleaning will be involved. We are both busy professionals and need someone who is trustworthy, structured/ organised, punctual and very reliable. Active engagement with his studies is important to us.

Hello, our names are Anna and Mike, and we live in Fitzroy North. We have two young daughters — Evie (3½) and Juliet (just over one). We are looking for a part‑time nanny to care for them two full days per week while we are working in the city.

The role includes caring for the girls, taking them on local adventures (parks, museums, play activities), preparing their meals, and creating a fun, engaging, and nurturing environment. We’re hoping to find someone who is energetic, kind, and an all‑round legend — someone the girls will genuinely enjoy spending time with.

We would also appreciate some light household assistance, such as tidying up at the end of the day or helping with dinner prep before we get home. Anything that helps keep the household running smoothly is a huge bonus.

The typical workday would be from 8:00am to 5:30/6:00pm, with some flexibility. We can be flexible with days, but ideally we’re looking for Monday and Wednesday, or Monday and Friday. We would also love additional help over the school holidays, when the girls are home more and we may need extra support.

Hours: 8:00am – 5:30/6:00pm (flexible)

Requirements: Valid driver’s licence, Working With Children Check, and references

Hi, our daughter is 2.5 years old and we now require an experienced, energetic, caring and extroverted nanny (who is at least 21 years old) every week on Thursday from 12 - 4.30 with the chance of additional hours as familiarity increases. Its very important to be talkative and playful as she feels more comfortable with such personalities. We prefer a good history of nannying alongside having first aid certificate, police check, working with children check and references. We are based in Kew and will, of course, take the time to explain and be around you to help build an easy going routine and comfort between our daughter and you.
Rate - $40 per hour. Appreciate your time, thank 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
