Hi there - I am looking for a babysitter / nanny for my two boys (aged 3.5yo and nearly 6yo) for two afternoons per week (out of Monday, Tuesday & Thursday) next year. Hours will be 3pm to 6:30pm. (We would be happy to offer longer hours if the babysitter is also happy to do some cleaning and/or cooking and meal prep while the kids are at school / in care.) Please get in touch if this is of interest - thanks!

Hi there!
We live in Richmond, though it's more like Cremorne, and we have a baby who is 7 weeks old (as at December 21) and a son who is 3.5. I'm looking for someone to arrive early - 6am - on his daycare days (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday) and help me get him ready for daycare and then walk him up to daycare. Depending on experience with babies, I'd also like it if you can hold the baby for me while I do jobs in the house or I could take my son to daycare instead some days while you hold the baby at home. Once my son is dropped at daycare, I'm hoping you can come back to our house and do an hour or two of housework including clothes washing or dish washing. The morning job would be about 6am - 10am.
In the evening, we're hoping someone can pick my son up from daycare, walk back to our house, and help me get dinner organised before bathing my son and prepping him for bed. The evening would be about 5pm - 7:30pm.
If interested, we could meet at our house and have a chat. Police check, working with children's check and first aid essential. Thank you! Alexis

We are a busy, active family seeking a reliable and energetic nanny to help care for our 3 boys (aged 12, 10 and 5 years old) during after-school hours 4 days per week Kensington, Victoria, commencing in late January 2026. This role is ideal for an experienced, caring, organised and reliable nanny/babysitter who is confident in managing schedules and activities.

The hours are to be discussed/agreed, but approx. 3 pm to 7 pm with the ideal candidate having some flexibility to stay longer on an adhoc basis (if required).

Additional work available for casual evening and weekend babysitting. No care required on public holidays or during school holidays.

The candidate will need to be confident working with children, provide a safe, fun and stimulating environment and enjoy engaging in activities with our busy, active boys. Our family has had a nanny for over 12 years and we have had fantastic experiences with nannies who have formed strong relationships with us and our children. We are looking for someone who is trustworthy, dependable and committed to their job, with a desire to stay in the role for at least a year.

The role will primarily involve school pick-up and getting them to after-school activities, light meal preparation and light cleaning related to the children (e.g. cleaning up after meals etc.), dinner and bedtime routine.

A working with children check and a current driver’s licence & own car essential.

We are looking for a caring, reliable, and energetic babysitter to look after our active 2-year-old toddler in our home. Care is needed for around 3–4 hours during the daytime. The days are currently flexible and will be finalised soon. Our child is full of energy and curiosity, so we’re looking for someone who is interactive, playful, and enjoys engaging in age-appropriate activities, games, and play. The role includes supervising playtime and ensuring a safe, nurturing environment. Previous experience with toddlers is preferred. We offer a friendly family setting, consistent hours, and the opportunity for ongoing work.

Hello!

We are looking to meet a lovely (and very experienced) babysitter for Wednesdays from around 9:00AM - 12:30PM (ish) each week in February/March/April.

👩‍🎨 About the role:
We have a clever and quirky 3.5 year old!

The role will be about 3.5 hours per week on a Wednesday. We're hoping this can be an ongoing role, but we tend to decide week-to-week if the babysitting day is needed, so we have listed it as casual. The shift is on Wednesday mornings (9:00AM - 12:30PM tends to work). We work from home, so generally one or both of us will be home during the shift - but in a different area of the house.

📝 About you:
We are looking for someone who has experience working with children of a similar age. You have an interest in teaching young ones about life! We're looking to meet someone who is attentive, nurturing, patient, fun, caring, gentle and calm. We're looking to meet someone who has the energy to keep his developing mind busy (he's go go go!) He is sensitive and responds well to calm play (not too loud or intense).

We are hoping to meet someone who has experience with 3 year olds specifically and can help him with his general independence and learning about life.

👦 About the client:
Our 3.5 year old is a beautiful, quirky, clever and loves (LOVES) to chat! He loves when he is engaging with his favourite games and conversations - planets, numbers, learning new words and languages, maths, arts and crafts, reading, puzzles, books, quizzes, singing and imaginary play with his toys. He's a busy boy!

He is potty trained but still needs occasional assistance/reminding! A very, very selective eater but in this short shift we'll just provide his favourite snacks. A huge bonus if you've had experience with selective eaters (but not necessary). He's an avid learner and is happiest when he's learning or experimenting with something new.

👫About the parents:
We are both freelancers who work in music and the arts. We are openminded and we value honesty, humour, nature, kindness, empathy and compassion. We want to ensure the babysitters we work with feel supported and valued in their role!

I used to be a babysitter/nanny myself and met most of my babysitting clients on this website. I made so many amazing, longstanding connections with the families of the kids who are all grown up now and I still keep in touch with them and visit them 15-20 years later! Babysitting taught me so much that I am now applying as a Mamma.

We are looking forward to hearing from you. We will generally organise a phone call first, then a one hour trial period (to make sure it's the right fit for everyone).

Thanks,
Charlotte & family
