Hi there! I'm looking for someone to help out on Friday afternoons for school pick ups and after school activities for my boys, 11 and 14. They are very easy going and independent and just need a lift from school back to the house (approximately 20 minutes away) and to soccer (about 10-15 minutes from home). We'd need help from around 3:15-6:15. We'd love to hear from you.

Would be looking after Alexei 4 and Lachie 2, both boys love monster truck and are very active. They both go the childcare and kinder. However separation maybe rather upsetting, as we haven’t really left them.

Thursdays - hanging out with my 4yo then picking up the twins from school

Looking for a casual babysitting on some evenings and/or weekends for our 1 and a half year old son and 3 and a half year old Daughter. We live in Elwood :)

Ideally we will need a babysitter around 5pm onwards on adhoc weeknights but especially fridays from 5pm- 8pm and mid mornings onwards on either saturday/ Sunday on an adhoc basis.

We will require light housework such as folding laundry, vacuuming etc once the kids are asleep.

Hello!

We are on the hunt for a nanny/babysitter to assist our family of 4 (+ Gus our Hungarian Vizsla) in Albert Park, to commence in a few weeks. We would like this to be ongoing/permanent for the next 6-12 months (with a break for around a month at Christmas time).

The days/hours we are looking for:
Thursdays 8-12
Fridays 8-12

Occasionally these days may change and/ or we would love to give additional hours during the week/weekend when required.

We are super keen to have somebody the kids have become familiar with that we can call upon other than family when needed.

We have Ned (20 month old) and Pippa (3 weeks old).

Care would mainly be for our newborn Pippa and would for the most part be feeding, settling, napping, changing, floor time etc
Occasionally care for both Ned and Pippa.

This will allow me to drop Ned to daycare/attend appointments/catch up on work etc, so I would be in and out of the house during these hours.

During nap times some light house duties (tidying up, washing bottles etc) would be expected.

Midwife, nursing or childcare background highly regarded.

Hi there! We are looking for a wonderful nanny who can become part of our family, helping to take care of mostly our 14 month old daughter, and occasionally also our 3.5 year old daughter. We live in Elwood with our two young daughters and two dogs (cavoodles). I plan to go back to work at some stage next year, and so we would like to start the process of helping our 14 month old adjust to being looked after by a nanny. Our 3 year old attends daycare/kinder. Potentially looking to increase hours/days next year. For now, two short days a week is perfect. Ideally, we would also like someone who would be able to assist with light cleaning and/or meal prep. We would love a nanny who is patient, caring, fun/bubbly personality, and safety-conscious. And someone who truly loves kids!

We are looking for a nanny to care for our two girls, ages 18mo and 3.75yo during the day.

I am planning to embark on the process of looking for jobs to return to the workforce after a career break, and need support to enable me to do so. During this period, we are looking for someone ~15-20hrs/week across Mon/Tue/Wed/Thu. We can be flexible with exactly when those hours fall, and would be looking to split them over three or four days.

Once I have returned to work, we will be looking for someone to support us 3-4days a week. If the candidate we find for the near-term support is able to stay on with us long-term, that would be ideal though certainly not mandatory.

We are looking for a nanny who has a WWC, is First Aid and CPR trained, COVID and Flu vaccinated and minimum 2 parent references. Additionally, a valid driver licence and clean driving record.

Ideally we would also love our nanny to help with some light housework, largely relating to the girls: mealtime prep/packdown etc., laundry, tidying living/bedrooms etc.

Hi,
We are looking for help primarily in the afternoons helping us pick up our 2 boys from school and take them to any after school activities and where possible prepare dinner. Where possible we would also like support in washing and/or putting away kids clothes. For mornings, we would also like help in getting kids up and ready for school. Ideally this suits people at university which we would be happy to work timetables and around exams etc. We have 2 boys, 10 and 13 attending Malvern Central School in year 4 and Scoth in Yr 7. Looking for some prior experience and drivers' licence and car a must. Look forward to meeting - Janine
