Babysitting and Nanny Jobs in Prahran VIC

I have a six year old son who requires school pick up at least three days per week. I would need someone to be available from 3 pm to 6 - 7 pm. During this time if you could help with his homework, play with him and prepare dinner for the family that would be amazing. I may ask for errands to be run and light cleaning. Note; I have two small poodles who are very friendly.

There is a strong possibility this may be offered permanently after initial period. I can also be flexible on pick up days.

We are looking for an energetic, fun and reliable person to collect our 3 children from school and keep them safe and busy, 4 days per week

Looking for a babysitter/nanny for our 4 month old baby for 3 hours during one day and 3 hours one evening per fortnight. We are looking for someone with experience with young babies, who can engage with her and provide age appropriate stimulation during her wake period (reading, playing music, assisted rolling/ tummy time with stimulation). We are looking for someone who will be with her as she grows and so are looking for a babysitter/ nanny who is committed to caring for her long term.

We are a Brazilian / Persian family living in Albert Park, right near the village and #1 tram stop. We have three boys: 7yr old twins and a 3 yr old.

I need ongoing help with mornings and/or afternoons.
Mornings: Getting the boys ready, breakfast, walking to school / daycare and walking the dog.
Afternoons: Picking up from school / daycare and taking them to local activities (lessons). Helping with homework and preparing for dinner / showers.

Preferred days are: Mondays, Wednesday and Thursdays

We are flexible, so please apply if you can only do certain days or are available other days.

The ideal candidate should be engaging, energised, organised, calm, disciplined and patient. Whilst drivers license preferred, not necessary as everything is walking distance.

Bonus points if you can help with homework (reading books), play kids games, telling stories and play or understand music.

Just as a FYI - we have a cavoodle (dog) who is very friendly and may need some walks.

The role involves taking him for walks, to the park, to the library etc - would also involve occasionally picking our daughter Poppy up from school at 3:15pm - no car required the school is 100m down the road!

We live in St Kilda and are an easy going, friendly family of 4.

If this is something that sounds of interest to you, please send me a message :)

Thanks,

Hi - We are looking for a nanny to care for our 8YO daughter and 5YO twin daughters. We require an after school nanny to collect the children on a Monday to Thursday. We will provide a car during this time. We would like you to help with the children's dinner, the bath routine and some light household duties. The girls are very sweet and lots of fun! Hours would be 2pm to 6pm.

Hi there,

After-school pick ups Tues/Wed/Thurs (3 - 6pm T&W and 3 - 6:30pm Th), for 11yo G and 8yo B - two bubbly children who are seeking someone engaging and present who has 4+ years experience, WWCC, full driver’s licence - must be off P plates - parent references and is reliable and able to commit for a minimum of 6 months.

3:00-6:00/6:30pm $35/hr
Tues/Wed/Thurs (must be able to do all 3 days)

Nanny duties include: Pick up kids from school/bus stop (car provided) - one pick up at 3:30pm and the other pick up at 3:45pm. After returning from school pick ups, it's unpacking school bags/cleaning out lunchboxes, preparing some simple afternoon tea. After school activities vary from swimming to football training, some drop off and some staying at venue.

Light house duties of folding of washing (if a basket is done) and putting away clothes, and cooking dinners for the kids - guidance provided on this unless you happen to be a whiz in the kitchen and don't need any guidance on meals! :-)

Looking for someone that is reliable and can commit to the hours. Someone that is patient, present and genuinely enjoys kids but can also set boundaries when required. Someone that has the ability to be able to see the little things also that might help a working parent out and can clean up after themselves and have the house tidy 😊

Non-smoking around children, no phone scrolling and nut-free (one child has nut allergies). WWCC and family references a must, as is a driver’s license and safe driving history.

Open to all ages and backgrounds as long as you have proven nanny experience greater than 4 years and someone local is probably most ideal. Thanks! 😊
