Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Highgate WA

We’re looking for a kind, reliable and engaging babysitter to help care for our two daughters (3 and 5, soon to be 4 and 6) on a casual basis, primarily weekends and occasional evenings.

We’re hoping to find someone who is looking for more than just a one-off babysitting job, and someone who would enjoy building a genuine rapport with the children.

What we’re looking for:
• Reliable and responsible
• Enjoys playing, reading and engaging with children
• Comfortable with bedtime routines and evening babysitting
• Previous babysitting, childcare or parenting experience is a must
• Available regularly
• WWCC & police checks & first aid/CPR non-negotiable

If you’re interested, please send us a little bit of information about your experience with children, availability and hourly rate.

I am looking for someone to look after my kids on Wednesday’s from 3-6pm during school term and occasional Monday afternoons from 3-7pm. They are 14 (son) and 11 (daughter). Both need to be picked up from school (two schools, same suburb) between 3-3:30pm and taken to extra-curricular activities. Their schedule varies between terms. Some easy dinner prep and lunch box making would be part of the afternoon routine.

We’re a busy family in Kensington looking for a kind, capable and proactive nanny/family assistant to become a trusted part of our household. We have two young children—a four-year-old and an 11-month-old—and are seeking someone who genuinely enjoys engaging with children while also helping family life run smoothly. Alongside attentive, nurturing care, the role includes simple meal preparation, washing and folding clothes, light tidying and occasional errands. We value warmth, reliability, initiative and good judgement, and hope to find someone seeking a consistent, long-term role with our family.

My husband and I are both working professionals. We have 2 boys turning 4 and 6 this year, both can easily communicate their needs, and independent for their age. They are well with no allergies or medical issues, and have good reports from school. We need someone who can commit at least 20 hours per week, including driving them to school and various after school activities. Monday is a requirement (public holidays off) and we can be quite flexible with the other days. Locations are usually within 5km drive from our house. A car and car seats can be provided when driving the kids. We are looking for someone who is willing to do light housework (laundry, general tidy up) while the boys are in school. We have a regular cleaner and caterer so that is covered. We do not allow smoking and ask you to put phones / screens away while driving and looking after the kids. You are welcome to use them once they are at school or if supervising them at extracurriculars. We have had 2 nannies in the past, both became like part of our extended family. Our first worked with us for over 2 years before she started her own family. Our second has worked with us over 3 years and is planning to move to Sydney in July. We continue to have good relationships as we always endeavoured to treat them with respect and kindness. Please message me (prefer with references) if you are available and interested in this job.

We are a family of 5. We have three children (aged 8, 11 and 14 years), and need someone to do one to two afternoons a week (depending on your availability) focusing on pick up of our 8 year old primarily (the other two are pretty independent), but also helping with getting to afternoon activities where needed.

Hi! 👋🏼 I’m looking for a wonderful, reliable babysitter to become a familiar face in our little family.
I’m a solo mum to Noah, who is just over a year old, and I work full-time in retail. Most of the time Noah is at daycare, but as anyone with a toddler knows… sometimes they’re sick, daycare closes, or life throws you a curveball! 😂
With Christmas trading approaching, my work hours are also likely to become a little unpredictable, so I’m looking for someone who can be my extra pair of hands when I need them — things like:
• Looking after Noah when he’s home sick from daycare
• The occasional weekend when I have to work
• Dropping him at daycare or picking him up
• Giving him dinner / hanging out with him until I get home
• Helping out during daycare closures over Christmas & New Year
• Potentially the occasional evening babysitting
I’d love to find someone who is kind, nurturing, reliable and genuinely enjoys little ones. Most importantly, someone I can trust completely and who Noah can get to know and feel comfortable with.
I’m not necessarily looking for someone to just come in and babysit when I need them — I’d really love to start introducing you into our little family and have you become another familiar, trusted person in Noah’s world. ❤️
We’re in [Scarborough] and I’m ideally looking for someone local who has some flexibility, particularly around Christmas/New Year.
If this sounds like you, or you know someone wonderful who might be a good fit, please send me a message. I’d love to have a chat and meet you! xx

Hello nannies!

We have a gorgeous almost 3 year old boy and expecting a second baby in September :)

We are searching for a long-term nanny for our family with growing and evolving needs.

We are looking initially for an extra pair of hands when the baby arrives to help with our newborn and household, and on some days our toddler, in Sept + Oct. We expect for around 4-5 hours in the morning Monday to Sunday.

We expect towards the end of the year (Nov / Dec, tbc), we will adjust the days down so we will only need help in the mornings for 2-3 days per week (between Mon to Fri).

You will be experienced with toddlers and newborns / babies. Our toddler is a sweet and active boy who loves the outdoors. He will start Pre-kindy next year (2027) and we will need help with pick ups.

While our preference is for an experienced mum who has grown children of your own, we are open to meeting all candidates :)

Our ideal candidate will be with us long term, someone who is reliable and prioritises safety.
We are a happy and relaxed household and want an active, caring and fun environment.

Ultimately we anticipate that our nanny will be on the same page when it comes to our child rearing philosophy and can fit in as an extra family member ;)

While the focus will be on caregiving, we also need help with house work too, essentially helping with everything that mum would otherwise do. We are looking for someone who can prepare meals, tidy, do dishes, laundry, and light household cleaning.

We speak Cantonese and English at home. Bonus if you have Chinese language ability, however a second language is not essential.

We are happy to discuss cost and references. Please reach out if this role interests you. We look forward to chatting.

Have a great day, thank you!

I have two girls aged 8 & 10and I am looking for someone who can come to the house in the mornings before school 6:30/7 and get ready and take them to school.

I need someone to be able to help 2 x mornings on a permanent basis.
There may be other days in which we require depending on my work commitments. I work from home but need to be available for work at the times in which the girls should be getting ready for school.

My kids are pretty independent but need some reminding. I am looking for someone who can make them breakfast and tidy up afterwards.

It would be preferable to have someone who has a safe car and has had a license for some time and feel comfortable to drive me children to school.

We have a giant Kelpie who is very friendly, a cat and a bird. If you dont like animals then probably not the job for you.

Expression of interest for an early bird /school drop. Two healthy children on a casual /as needed basis. Please message me for more info.

We require after school childcare for our (almost!) 8 year old son for 1 day per week - Monday - until the end of Term 4 2026 (week ending Friday 18th December 2026). However, the position may remain into 2027, or increase depending on my future working hours. A good candidate could certainly be kept on or re-hired if necessary.

The job entails a school pick up at 2.30 followed by childcare until 4.30. Weekend babysitting may also be an option.

Our son has additional needs (ASD level 2 and ADHD) and needs a gentle natured, patient person who still holds firm boundaries.

It is helpful if the prospective candidate has experience with children with disabilities or additional needs, but this is not essential.
