We’re a family based in Redfern looking for a warm, engaged nanny/babysitter to help care for our son. He’s currently 6 months old and will be around 12 months old when the regular role begins in August.

I’m currently on parental leave, so for now we’re looking for ad-hoc babysitting, with the plan to move to a regular role of 3–5 days per week from mid-August when I return to work. Ideally we’re hoping to find someone who would like to be with our family long term.

About the role:

• Being present and engaged -singing, reading, playing and supporting his development
• Taking him out to activities such as swimming lessons, baby sensory classes, and walks

About our home:
• Located in Redfern
• We have two friendly cats, so you’ll need to be comfortable with pets

About us:
I’m an IP lawyer and my husband runs a music company. We love travel and would ideally find someone who might be open to travelling with us from time to time. We’re a pretty relaxed household and enjoy things like games, trivia and music, and I also love Pilates & art.

I used to be a nanny myself for a number of years, so I really get what the job’s like. I know how much energy and care it takes, and how important it is to feel trusted and appreciated. We’re just looking for someone who’ll feel comfortable and part of the family.

About you:
• Warm, reliable and attentive
• Enjoys engaging with babies and supporting their development
• Comfortable taking a baby out to local activities

Hi,

My partner and I, are in search of an experienced nanny (approx hours 9am until 4:30pm and sometimes until 6pm).

Our beautiful baby girl - Elara-Penelope who is 6 months old, is very sweet, good natured and possess a happy temperament.

My partner and I are both career driven people and have demanding jobs so we need the extra help :)

My partner is anxious about leaving Elara (to be expected), we hope to find someone we can trust and connect with who can be an integral part of our early journey in parenthood.
