Hello!

We are a family in Alphington with three children aged 1, 4.5 and 7 years.

We are looking for an experienced, energetic and reliable nanny to join our family for the long term, starting mid September 2026.

We are looking for 2 full days per week, on Monday and Tuesday from 8am to 6pm. Primarily you will looking after our 1 year old, and drop off and pick up for the 4.5 and 7 year old at the local school and kinder. You will do dinner and ideally bath before we get home about 6pm. Some help with laundry during the day would be amazing too when possible but housekeeping is not expected.

In addition to two regular days, a few extra casual days and nights will very likely pop up here and there.

Rate is $35-38, negotiable based on experience.

If this sounds like you, we forward to hearing from you!

We are looking for Care one day a week for our 2.5 year-old boy and 10 month old girl.
Ideally, we start in September with one of the children, and next year move to caring for both children.
The day would involve lots of outdoor activities going to the park, scooter rides, going to a cafe and lunchtime naps.

We are a family of four: two working parents and two young boys (20 months and 3 years old). We are looking for some ad hoc babysitting support to manage the house and child related needs, given busy schedules. There is flexibility as to days of the week and time of day/night.

General duties include:
- playing with kids
- outings to local park etc
- preparing simple kid meals
- general tidy of toys

We (Laura, Marc, Henry (6y) , Rosie (4y) and Georgie (18m)) are looking for a kind, caring, gentle, loving and fun nanny to help our family out on a Tuesday each week from 7:30am - 5:30pm.

A typical day will look like:

7:30am - Arrive into chaos, but also sleepy morning hugs. Hopefully the kids are dressed and eating breakfast, but maybe not. Tag team with Laura and Marc as they go off to exercise and work. Ensure Henry is ready for school (lunchbox etc) , and the girls are dressed and ready to drop him off.

8:20am - Drive to school, drop Henry off with high fives ready for an 8:50am school start

8:50am - 3pm - Spend the day with Rosie and Georgie - Arts and crafts, baking, library visits, trips to the zoo/park, or play it by feel/mood. Georgie is still on 2 naps, Rosie can have a little bit of gentle TV in the middle of the day to give you some space to eat / help with some folding / throw some ingredients into the slow cooker for dinner or just recalibrate yourself and the house depending on the days activities.

3pm - Drive to school to pick Henry up with the girls.

4pm-5:30pm - Henry and Rosie usually play to catch up on the day, then bath the kids, and a little dinner prep would be appreciated. Laura or Marc will then be home and takeover. You may have arrived into chaos, but hopefully you leave in calm :)

About us: We like the simple things in life, we try to parent gently, we would appreciate a nanny who understands and is patient with the ever changing emotions of a developing brain, we validate emotions while also set appropriate boundaries.

In our spare time we love to go camping, gardening, baking, spending time with family and friends, exploring rock pools, exercise is a big part of the adult routines, the kids do swimming and AusKick.

Henry loves nature, arts and crafts especially drawing and adores school. Rosie loves imaginative play, dressing up and going to the library and shops, Georgie loves helping, climbing, animals and emptying out the kitchen cupboards! There is a lot of love between the siblings and only fairly minor fights, Henry and Rosie can play for hours. They love Georgie fiercely, Rosie on occasion a little too much and is very protective of her family :)

About you: We would love someone who has heaps of common sense, uses initiative, is good at cooking and baking, generous with their hugs and love, happy to get on the floor and play, while we understand the need for breathers and breaks if the kids are having some downtime, we would also love a little help with hanging out a wash load, folding some clothes etc but this is secondary to the kids care and attention.

Extra Context: I (Laura) have just got a new job and the hours, etc are still a little up in the air, there may be additional shifts available e.g. a morning or evening, and casual babysitting if there is interest. But our core requirement is a reliable Tuesday full day shift. We would like someone close-by to help with this flexibility. I may be working from home on the Tuesday, but preferably at the office. I will try to keep myself hidden as Georgie can be clingy if I am around, but she is completely fine when I'm not!

Hello

We are a family in Alphington with 3 children, a 10-year-old girl and two boys, aged 8 and 5. We are looking for a warm, fun and calm nanny to help get our 3 children to school and kinder.

The role is for Monday, Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 7.30-9.30am. Finishing time can be slightly earlier if this impedes other commitments.

The role will mainly focus on supporting our youngest child to get to kinder. Experience with, or an understanding of, children with ADHD/ASD will be preferred. The older children are fairly self-sufficient and will need minimal support completing their morning routine. But a few gentle reminders to stay on track will be required. :)

If time allows after drop off, some light tidying of the kitchen or hanging out of the washing would be very much appreciated but not expected.

Both school and kinder are a short walk/very short drive from our home.

If this sounds like a role you’d enjoy, we’d love to hear from you.

We are a family about to become 5 and are looking for someone to help with after school/kinder pick up and help through dinner/bath time. Our two children are 3.5 and 6 years old and we will welcome our newborn in mid-August. Looking for someone available roughly 3pm until 6.30pm two afternoons a week (preferably Mon and Thurs, but somewhat flexible). Newborn experience not necessary as Mum will be looking after the baby. Working with children check and reference/s preferred. Drivers license required, but can use our car. Some light housework such as preparing and cleaning up dinner and folding washing required. Potential for more hours and/or casual babysitting work also if available.

Hi - I have a 12 months old and looking for a suitable nanny to work 1-2 days (Tuesday and Friday) from end of September/start October. First aid, police check, WWC, CPR certificate. Based in Hawthorn. Please reach out if you’re interested. Thanks

I'm after a regular sitter for my son, 11. One or two afternoons a week (flexible on which days), about 3.30 to 6.30 or 7pm, plus the occasional weekend.

He's auADHD but he's pretty independent, so it's an easy gig. He's a smart, funny kid who loves gaming and fun facts, and he has a special interest that changes week to week. Chess for a while, then golf, then table tennis, rock climbing, boxing ...you get the picture. You'd want to be someone who's happy to join in on whatever the current thing is.

If you're into gaming or full of random facts yourself, or have a special interest activity you two will get along.

He's been having his afternoons to himself lately and quite likes it, so part of the job is getting him off screens and doing stuff together. He'd game all afternoon if nobody stopped him.

Day to day it's pretty simple: hang out with him, make him some dinner, tidy the kitchen after.

If you've spent time around neurodivergent kids through work, family or your own experience, that's a big plus. He also has NDIS community participation funding, so if you're a qualified support worker or have an ABN activities and outings can be billed at support rates.

I'm a solo parent looking for someone ongoing and reliable, ideally a familiar face he ends up looking forward to.

If that sounds like you, tell me a bit about yourself and what days you're free.

We are a family of 4 living in Hawthorn East. My husband and I have a 8 yr old son and a 1 yr old son. We are searching for a caring person to help us with our morning school routine with our son and toddler. We would like help with school drop off in the morning for our 8 yr old son from Mon-Thurs. After the school drop off we would like help with baby sitting our toddler for 3 hours (till his noon nap). We would like the baby sitter to spend time with our toddler playing and doing activities that are applicable for his age.

Hi,

We're a busy family in Hawthorn East looking for a reliable, organised nanny to help us during the week. We have three children, a 10-year-old (turning 11 in September) and 8-year-old twins, all in primary school.

What we need help with:

- General household organising and tidying, including vacuuming upstairs (downstairs is handled by our robot vacuum) and wiping down surfaces, to keep the home running smoothly
- Laundry : washing, drying, folding and putting away
- School pick-up (one school only. the other is covered by family)
- Helping the kids with homework and their after-school routine

Deep cleaning is handled by our regular cleaner and meal prep is taken care of by family, so this role is focused on tidying, light cleaning, laundry, the children and homework.

Hours: Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, 12pm–6pm (6 hours per day, ~18 hours per week). Housework in the earlier part of the day, then school pick-up and the kids in the afternoon.

Ideal person: warm, patient and dependable with primary-aged children, confident supporting homework, with a current driver's licence and comfortable with school pick-up. Tidy and proactive around the house.

Thank you!
