Hi there

My name is Sasha and I live in Thornbury with my partner and 2 year old son.

We're looking for someone to help us out one afternoon a week, ideally on a Tuesday or Thursday (though we have some flexibility). The hours would be 3:30–6:30pm.

To give you a sense of what the afternoon would look like:

- Arrive at our home at 3.30pm and tidy our son's room, strip his cot and put on fresh sheets, put a load of his clothes in the washing machine and prepare his dinner.
- Around 4:30/5:00pm you would drive to pick our son up from daycare (approx. 5 minute drive from our house).
- Once back at home, play games/read etc and give him dinner.

If the arrangement works well, we'd potentially look to extend to a second afternoon per week on a different day, same hours. We'd also need occasional casual evening babysitting from time to time.

If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, we'd love to hear from you!

Thanks
Sasha

We’re looking for a warm, fun and energetic person to help our family 2–3 afternoons per week 3:00–6/6:30pm. Flexible on days.

We are located in camberwell and looking for someone to help out with picking the girls up from school a few days per week and get them home and fed afternoon tea etc. Help with homework and take to after school activities if they have any.
The girls are 8 and 6.
Afternoons but could also do some mornings if available.
Look forward to hearing from you.

I need a lovely person to pick up my bubbly 8 years old daughter from Preston West Primary school at 3h30pm and walk back home (10min walk) with her and stay with her doing low key activities, craft, play in the backyard...not fussy, until 5-6pm. The job pays for 3hrs (3-6pm) but we are likely to be home before 6pm. I need help 2-3 days/week on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, to commence in 1-2 weeks. Ideally, you'll be available for a quick chat and a meeting in the upcoming days.

Hi, babysitters! I am looking for someone to work with our family on a weekly, part-time basis from Monday through Thursday afternoons/evenings at our home in South Yarra, near Hawksburn village. One-off babysitting help on the weekend would also be great as well, if you're open to it, if we have something on occasionally in the evenings.

My husband and I both work during the week, usually with at least one of us working from home, and we're seeking some assistance with entertaining the kids when they get home from school with activities like drawing, reading, doing puzzles, cooking/preparing dinner, kicking a ball in the backyard, playing at one of the nearby playgrounds... really anything except sitting them in front of the TV!

The kids usually eat dinner around 6pm, so when they sit down to eat we'd appreciate your help getting their bath ready and then cleaning up dinner once they're done (we will give them their bath and put them to bed). Very rarely would you be alone with the children, so we're happy to help as needed while we finish up work.

We have three children: a 6 year old boy, 4 year old girl and 2 year old boy. All three are at school/kinder during the day and finish up at different times in the afternoon, so during the afternoons you'd spend with us it would range from looking after 0 kids (when we're picking them up, and would appreciate your help with housework like tidying their bedrooms, folding laundry, preparing dinner, etc), to 1 kid, 2 kids or 3 kids max (for about an hour or so when they're all back from school).

The total weekly hours that we need are around 13, across the following schedule:

Monday: 4pm-7pm
Tuesday: 4pm-7pm
Wednesday: 3pm-7pm
Thursday: 4pm-7pm

It would be great if this could be completed by one babysitter, but we are also open to splitting it across two people on different days if that aligns better with the schedules for the right person.

Ideally, the right person for our family will be someone who is kind, warm and caring. Our kids are pretty easy going but of course, try to push the limits! We'd appreciate someone who is creative and can engage them in creative pursuits - they love everything with paint, play-doh, and anything tactile!

Any other questions - don't hesitate to reach out! Excited to welcome you to our family :)
