Hi all,

Core hours would be 11.45am - 5.45pm on Monday's and include pick-ups from Kinder/school and some after school activities. Thanks so much!

I’m looking for a carer to help with before school care and doing school drop offs for my 6 year old daughter on Tuesday and Friday mornings. The drop off is from South Melbourne to a primary school in Armadale. The start time will need to be around 7am-7:15am. I can insure you on my car for the school run so you don’t need your own vehicle, just a clear driving license and be a safe driver. Occasional after school care may also be available if this suits. Ideally you would have a few years of experience and references. Please send me a message to discuss this job further. Hope to hear from you, thanks.

Hey :) My name is Katherine, and I’m the mum of a wonderful 5 year old boy named Harry.

I’m a single mum, and I am in need of a babysitter for evenings/nights on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays, from 8pm to about 2am at my place. Harry will mostly be asleep, but I just need someone reliable during those hours to be around and make sure Harry is getting a good night's sleep.

Harry and I are a very active little family, we love outdoor activities, creative arts, and we’re always exploring new things.

We live just the two of us in Ascot Vale, and our location is really ideal if you travel via your own vehicle or tram, as we’re right by a tram stop, and just across the road is a small supermarket.

If you’re available, I’d love to hear from you

Thank you so much!
