Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Malvern East VIC

Looking for a reliable and trustworthy nanny to look after our 2 year old twin girls as our current nanny will be having a child of her own soon. We need someone who is available 4 days a week Tuesday to Friday as I'm back at work. Must have Working with Children's Check and First Aid. Preferably qualified in Certificate III Early Childhood Education & Care. Hourly rate from $35 depending on experience. If this interests you, send me a message and we can have a chat.

Our vibrant family of five in Ashburton is on the lookout for a truly wonderful nanny to join our happy household! Meet our delightful trio: a charming 9-year-old girl, an energetic 8-year-old boy, and a playful 6-year-old boy.

We're seeking a special someone to provide before and after school care on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We're really hoping to find a nanny who isn't just great with kids, but also a fantastic organiser who can help ensure our home and all the children's activities are seamlessly managed. This means a few flexible hours during school time dedicated to kid-related household tasks, like preparing healthy meals, keeping on top of laundry, and baking those all-important school snacks.

Let's break down the days:

Mornings (7:15 am - 9:15 am): Your role would be instrumental in getting our children ready for school and assisting with their drop-off. The best part? The school is a short, less than 5-minute walk away, so no driving is necessary! There may also be an opportunity to get ahead on some meal or after-school snack preparation.

Afternoons (3:00 pm - 6:30 pm): This segment involves gathering after-school snacks, picking up the children from school (at 3:30 pm), and safely transporting them to their activities in a car we provide (most activities are approximately a 10-minute drive from our home). Upon returning home, your assistance with showering the children and some dinner preparation would be incredibly valuable.

If you're an organised, proactive, and warm individual ready to become an integral part of our family's routine, we would absolutely love to hear from you.

Hi, We are looking for someone who can pick up our 2 kids from school (Year 2 girl and year 4 boy) in Caulfield South on Tuesday afternoons and possibly drop one at an activity so will require a car. Scope to increase to Wed if it is going well.
Would involve school pick up (3.30pm, school is walking distance from home), homework etc until 6pm. Please let me know if you are interested and believe you are suitable. Look forward to hearing from you.

Hi!

We are a family of 4, with two boys aged 12 and 7.5.

We need after school care on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 3 to 6:30 pm.

Duties include:
- school pickups (from 1 school 600m away, the other is 3.5 km away)
- snacks
- drop off and pick up from tennis (3 km away)
- tidying up
- dinner/meal prep
- helping kids to pack up clothes, shoes, unpack school bags will be appreciated.

Both kids are high energy and love tennis, enjoy 0.5 hour of video games (except no technology-day is Wednesdays), are diligent but need gentle reminder on school homework etc. one boy does swimming lessons on Fridays. Time management is a great skill to have, as the boys are almost always 'on the go' but need to be organised in terms of packing tennis bags, water bottles, solid/healthy snacks etc.

Those with ongoing careers in childcare (E.g., either diploma courses, or experience in childcare centres) will be preferred. We have strong preference for those who are reliable and professional and will arrive on time and not skip days once they commit to this role.

Many thanks and look forward to a chat!

We’re looking for a caring, reliable babysitter for our 8-month-old daughter on a casual basis. Duties include playtime, feeding, nappy changes, and settling for naps. Ideal candidate has experience with infants, is calm and confident, and holds a Working with Children Check. First aid preferred. Mainly weekdays; flexible timing.

If you’re warm, responsible, and love working with babies, we’d love to hear from you!

We're looking for a fun and energetic babysitter for our 3-year-old boy, who loves to stay active and explore. He’s full of curiosity and enjoys playing with cars, blocks and outdoor activities.

The ideal sitter will be someone that lives in the south-eastern suburbs, patient, playful, and experienced with toddlers, ready to keep up with his high energy and engage in creative play.

He is currently in childcare full time, but he used to go 3 days a week. So he misses a little that one on one time.

We are looking for someone that can help out after 5pm, the weekends/public holidays, in case he is sick and we cannot take time off work, or we go out at night. Also pick him up from childcare around 3pm once a week and do something fun, like going to the beach, park, library.

Tell me if that suits you, so we can arrange a meet & greet.
FYI we have a cat.

Cheers,

Connie

🧼 2 hours of light tidying/cleaning in the main living areas
🍽️ Prepping or cooking a simple family dinner
🚗 School/kinder pick-ups (must be able to drive)

Let’s just say… with three little ones, the house can turn into a tornado zone real fast 🤪
