Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Paddington NSW

Looking for a nanny who has 2-3 days they need to fill for our gorgeous 7 month old baby girl. I will mostly be home, but requires someone who’s very warm and experience is preferred, able to help make life a little easier for me to run to appointments as I need to, also able to come away on trips with notice too. Very happy and relaxed baby and family, perks of gym access to a members gym, lunch and coffee allowance & time off with 2 weeks notice and ability to be flexible.

Hello Nannies!

We are a very close, fun- loving and active family of 3 - Felicity (mum), Jake (dad) and Maeve (3 years). We are looking for some help caring for Maeve on Monday - Wednesday mornings each week (~ 8.30 am - 12.30 pm).

Our previous nannies have very much become a much-loved extension of our family and have created a very special bond with Maeve. Having lost our most recent wonderful nanny to (excitingly for her!) a full-time teaching role, we are on the lookout for someone new to fill these big shoes.

The role is likely best suited to someone who already has work / study on the other days and is looking to supplement this with some extra fixed hours during the week. We understand things can pop up, but we’d really like for someone to be able to commit to staying with us for a minimum of 6 months so Maeve has some continuity.

Maeve is a very friendly, energetic and loving little girl - she is our entire world! We are looking for a nanny who genuinely loves children, has just as much energy as Maeve (she is surprisingly fast so you'll need to break into the occasional sprint in the park!), is kind, patient, and will ensure her safety is paramount (she is very adventurous and fearless!), and is unbothered by the inevitable "threenager" moment and comfortable with re-directing Maeve's energy when these happen!

Maeve loves going to the playground and park, dancing, gymnastics, exploring, and climbing. Her favourite activity is making friends and she is a real social butterfly (she will love introducing you to all her pals at the park). She is a little chatterbox and, if she sits still for long enough, also enjoys a book, drawing and playing with her toys. She has loved her previous Nannies and really looks forward to spending time with them (expect big cuddles when you arrive and leave each day!).

Some non-negotiables for us are a valid WWCC, current child first aid certificate, parent / relevant other references, and recent working experience with toddlers (2 - 3 years). It's also important that you're a good / open communicator and are reliable.

We want you to be fully engaged with Maeve, so there will be no extra duties (housework etc) required in this role. There is no need for a driver's license as there is so much within walking distance from our inner-city home (plus parking is tricky, so public transport is advised).

We'd love to build a long-term relationship with someone who will be part of our little family and an extension of us as parents.

We really look forward to hearing from you!
Felicity, Jake and Maeve.

Hi!

I’m Aleks, mum to two boys - 9 (Year 4) and 7 (Year 1). We just moved to Bondi Beach.

We are looking for a nanny to join the family.

We have very active, confident and fun boys that need someone who can match their energy and engage them.

We would love someone Monday to Friday to help with the morning school rush.
Starting around 5.45am until 9/10am (flexible with finishing time based on your needs/avails).
We would love someone that can help get our kids ready for school, make breakfast for the family, pack lunch boxes, prep a hello fresh dinner, hang, fold and pop away laundry.
We would love if you could drive the boys to school.

We would also need someone to help 4 afternoons a week (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday) to help with homework (it's a big workload!), school pickups, driving to activities, prepping dinner, helping with bedtime, plus evening baby sitting on weekends.
It's around 32-40 hours per week.

We would also like someone that could stay overnight with the kids if we travel interstate.

Both parents have busy schedules so would like to find someone that is flexible and lives locally. A driver's licence is essential.
Any teaching / tutoring experience would be a big plus also.

We also have a beautiful dog. He is a mini Groodle and would love a new friend that can walk him on occasion.

If this interests you, I would love to hear from you.

Thanks!
Aleks

He is a happy bub, a good sleeper, determined and loving his journey with solids and we follow a strict routine in the day. Our daughter is two and half, full of chat, laughter, cuddles and is toilet trained. She goes to daycare a couple of days a week and has lots of friends and family in the area for you all to meet up with on the other days. Our daughter still naps for about an hour each day and follows the same routine as her brother.

We are Mathilde and Alexis. We moved to Australia 2 years ago with our sons, Marceau 6yo, and Gaëtan 5yo. They both go to the French school, Lycee Condorcet, on Moverly Road. We live 5min walk from there on Garrett Street.
We are looking for someone who could manage the mornings from 6:30am to 8:30am, at least 3 days a week.
My husband has to leave the house at 6:30am and I will be travelling to Melbourne regularly, this is why we need this flexibility in the Morning. We would also need help for after school on Thursday to bring the kids to their swimclass (also 5min from the school). This would be for approx 1h30 from 4:30pm to 6pm.
We are also considering after school assistance for at least another day during the week, same hours.

That is our initial idea of organisation but we are open to discussion for days and hours.

We require an LIVE IN Aupair who will be part of the family. You will have experience with newborns as we are having twins in December this year :)
