We’re looking for a housekeeper/nanny to help our very busy family. Our two children, Sam & Aimee, are both high energy, active children. Sam loves being out doors, Lego and Karate. Aimee loves going to the park, drawing and crafts. My husband Tom & I work full time, we are both English but have been in AUS for almost 12 years.

We need someone who can spend 3-4 hours a day (ideally 4 days per week) helping us with school pick-up (from after care at around 5pm), taking the kids to activities, housework, laundry, meal prep and general errands. We are back at 6pm and kids are in school aftercare most days, so a significant portion of the hours would be ahead of them being picked up, to give time for the household jobs. We would love someone who is looking for a longer-term role (sorry no one looking for short-term positions).

In an ideal world, we'd love someone Mon-Thursday from 2-6pm (with some flexibility if we were going out for dinner or similar) but we can flex if needed. Our current housekeeper also does our cleaning - the new candidate could also take this on, or we could find a separate cleaner if required/preferred.

You would have use of our car while at work and we welcome someone who would enjoy taking the initiative to keep everything running smoothly. We spend a lot of time on the Peninsula, so we would also prefer someone who is willing to travel down there occasionally (travel time and expenses paid of course).
