Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Southern Melbourne, VIC

Hello!

We are looking for a bubbly energetic, reliable and super organized person to care for our 3 wonderful girls and help manage our busy household in Brighton East.

Ideally we are looking for someone local or within 5-10km of our home.

As the girls are older a significant part of the job is ensuring they get to where they need to be on time and picking them up afterwards. This includes school, netball and dance most of which are all based in Brighton and Sandringham.

Other tasks include (but are not limited to meal prep, grocery shopping, ensuring the house is tidy and staying on top of the laundry. (a never ending battle!)

We would be looking to organize someone for 30hrs a week with set times below including 3 school drop offs from 7:30am. We don't imagine you would be needed for the full 30hrs but will still pay 30 as a base rate to allow for some flexibility.

An average week could look like this: (24.5hrs)
Monday - 7:30am - 9:30am then 2:30pm - 6:00pm
Tuesday - 7:30am - 9:30am then 2:30 - 6:00pm
Wednesday - 2:30pm - 6:00pm
Thursday - 2:30pm - 8:00pm (depending on Netball game time)
Friday - 7:30am - 9:30am then 3:00pm - 5:00pm

Thanks

Glen & Kate

Hello,

My name is Natalia and I have an 9 year old son. He has autism but is high functioning. He is a beautiful sweet natured little boy and is in grade 3. He loves trains, Harry Potter, titanic, boats and building lego.

My son finds attending Oosh (before and after school care at his school) overwhelming. Therefore I have received funding for someone to come Mon 730 to 9 am and 330 to 530 pm. Must drive and have own car as it would involve taking him to and from school. Given he is eligible for funding the person must have an early child care qualification eg cert 3 in early childcare or currently studying it. If you do not hold this or working towards it I can’t hire you as funding criteria is strict about that. My son loves people and it would mainly involve playing with him and helping him with homework. Please message me if you have any questions.
