My name is Maggie and my partner Julian and I are looking for a nanny for our daughter Minty, who is 13 months. She is a very easy going, happy baby who loves to play.

Who are we?

Julian is a television producer and I am a writer. We were living in Amsterdam prior to COVID and moved back to Brisbane where I grew up, but moved away at 18. We are creatives who love great food, great music, and socialising!

Why do we need a nanny?

As my father is very unwell and Julian's parents live interstate we don't currently have any babysitting support for when we want to do something together as a couple, so we're looking for someone who can watch Minty on the days/evenings we want to do something together. Also, we are getting married in October (!) so will need a great nanny who can attend with Minty and watch her for that weekend.

What kind of person would be good for the job?

We both work so need a bit of an all rounder who can jump in and do some dishes as well as looking after Minty. You're not a house cleaner but you're also not afraid to give the kitchen a wipe down if it's a disaster zone. Must be fun loving and happy to interact with Minty, not plonk her in front of the TV. Usually we will need you over the weekend - so Saturday evenings will need to be free. Ideally, we want someone who can stay with us in a long-term arrangement so Minty makes a friend, not just a babysitter.
