We’re looking for a warm, reliable nanny to join our family and help care for our two beautiful boys!
Primary care will be for our youngest, Beau (7 months old), with the very occasional care for his older brother Raf (3 years old), who attends kinder most days.
We’re after someone with experience caring for babies and toddlers, who can confidently handle nap routines, feeding, playtime, and all the lovely chaos that comes with little ones!
Days needed:
Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays
(Exact hours to be discussed, but typically during the day 8am-3)
A few things that are important to us:
Time integrity – We really value someone who arrives on time and communicates clearly. We’ll always do our best to be home when we say we will, too.
Confidence with dogs – Our first baby Emilio (a gorgeous cocker spaniel), will be at home and would love a daily walk.
Light housework – Nothing major, just helping with things like a load of laundry, a quick vacuum, stacking the dishwasher, or putting away the click-and-collect. If you love to cook or feel confident in the kitchen, that’s a huge plus for us!
We’re based in Fairfield, a leafy, family-friendly neighbourhood in Melbourne’s inner north. We’re close to Station St shops, the beautiful Darebin Parklands, with great walking tracks, local cafes, and a lovely community feel.We’d love to find someone who feels like part of the family and enjoys being part of the rhythm of home life.
If you're dependable, nurturing, and genuinely love spending time with little ones (and a sweet pup), we’d really love to hear from you!
To apply, please email your resume and a short cover letter to romy@core-plus.com.au
Thanks so much!

Hi, we are just looking for an occasional babysitter for our 2 year old, mostly for the odd Friday or Saturday night. Would like someone who ideally has minded a child before.
We have a beautiful little girl called Matilda who was born on the 31st December so is almost 4 months old. We are looking for a part time nanny to start in July (with some casual babysitting from now until then) as I return to part time work post maternity leave.
We are initially looking for a full day on Monday as well as Wednesday afternoon and Thursday afternoon and evening. Next year we will be looking to extend those hours as I take on more of a full time workload although we will have some flexibility between my husband, George and I.
We would appreciate someone who has experience with infants and young babies especially with introduction of solid food and encouraging reliable sleep patterns.
Hi, we’re looking for someone locally based to help out Mon & Wed in the morning for kinder/school drop off (1hr) then again after school to take kids to activities (3-6ish). Probably some additional help in school hols and here and there during the week. Kids are 8, 7 and 5. Thanks, Louisa
I work for a family in South Yarra and am looking for a casual baby sitter to cover the days that their regular Nanny is unavailable.
The children are 9 years old (m) and 11 years old (f)
We are looking for someone to work from 2.30pm to 6.30pm on Friday 2 May, 8am to 6pm on Saturday 3 May, and 8am to 6pm on Sunday 4 May. We may also require you to come over for an hour on Thursday 1 May to meet the Nanny and go over how tasks are run.
Tasks will include - picking up from school, driving to after school activities, driving to weekend activities, general child minding duties.
Three kids - 13, 11, and 5, all at school.
We are looking for a wonderful addition to the family to help two busy working parents. We find it difficult to manage all the pick ups with our work schedules, + after school activities. Our current nanny helped us greatly by spending some extra time after the morning rush helping us to reset the house which made the week go really smoothly so we'd love to find someone that might be happy to do some light housework (dishes, tidying kids toys) that will help us reset after the kids go off to school.
Someone with flexibility in schedule would be great as needs may vary a little week to week. One parent travels each week (Thursday and Friday). We can commit to min hours as needed.
Hi there, we are looking for someone to join our family part time, primarily to look after the house and prep food for the family. Oversight of two children (girl 15 and boy 17) including school pick up, assist with homework if necessary. Also care for our small dog :)
Role is weekly Monday to Friday, approx 3.30 to 7.30pm, occasional later evenings. Can be flexible but we need minimum 3-4 days per week.
Further detail to be provided on request, we look forward to hearing from you!
We are a 2-dad family looking for an experienced nanny to provide childcare for our 3-year old boy for 1-day (Thursday) per week from 7.30am-6pm. You should be suitably qualified with a number of years experience with toddlers.
Applicants with experience supporting the changing needs of a medical/executive family a plus. Applicants must have current Police Check and Working With Children. First Aid training ideal. Bi-lingual applicants encouraged, including those with a keen interest in infant education through visual & verbal interaction and play.
Applicants must be comfortable working with a dog in the house. He's anxious at first, but will warm up over time.
We're looking for someone who can commit to a long term position and is very reliable. Please don't hesitate to send me a message to discuss this role further.
Hi, our daughter is 18 months old and we now require an extroverted nanny for the following times every Thursday 10-5pm, Friday 2-6pm, Saturday 2 - 5pm and Sunday 10-4. Its very important to be talkative and engaging as she feels more comfortable with such personalities. We prefer a good history of nannying alongside having first aid certificate, police check, working with children check. We are based in Kew and will, of course, take the time to explain and be around you to help build an easy going routine and comfort between our daughter and you.
Rate - $35 per hour. Appreciate your time, thank you.
We have three beautiful kids - two year old twins and a four year old. Our four year old will be at Kinder on Wednesday and Thursday from 8:30am-4pm so you would mostly be with the twins. The role would involve dropping our son off and picking him up from Kinder (walking distance), making meals for the kids, putting the twins down for a nap around midday, and doing some general housework like laundry and cooking.
We are a friendly and relaxed family who are looking for someone who enjoys spending time with kids and who will take good care if them. We would love someone who will play with them and get them out of the house - to the park, library, play group etc.
I'm looking for a live-in au-pair to care for my twin babies Daniel & Liron full-time (including some overnights) for long term engagement.
The kids attend childcare centre 3 days a week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) from morning to 6pm, so you will be free on those days.
I'm looking for au pair with past experience caring for babies, who is friendly, warm, and educated about baby development and needs (including feeding, changing, bathing, preparing food, etc.), has good command of English, and can do basic household chores.
You will get free room and board and a weekly stipend.
We would love to have you join our new family.
Please message me if interested/serious.
Thank you,
Ilan

5) And finally, your salary expectations for a full-time role — either weekly or monthly, whichever you prefer
We’re really looking forward to finding the right person to support our daughter during this exciting time!
Hi there,
Hope you are well. I am looking for a part time nanny/sitter who is great with kids and a small dog :)
The babysitter will be working side-by-side with me for the morning and evening routine and will not be on their own as I have a 1 year old and an infant.
I live in South Yarra so we have access to all public transport within minutes, restaurants, CBD, etc. You will also have access to pool, hot tub/jacuzzi, steam room, sauna, gym facilities should you wish to do so before or after work.
I have a 1 year old and if you do not have experience that is okay as I train people how to work with kids and babies as a living.
Duties will include playing with baby, tidying up toys, diaper changes, meal prep, tidying up, cleaning bottles, walking dog. I typically do the feed, bath and bed with the baby but if I am unable to then I will get your help.
I am a single mom so I just need an extra hand to help me. As we will be working together and with the baby, you will be considered and welcomed as part of the family.
I am looking for someone long term as the baby does get attached, he is very affectionate!
This can be a 2 part position as I potentially need help on all the days so tasks can be divided.
Please email CV to my email is artikasingh.aba@gmail.com
ONLY THOSE WHO EMALED CV/RESUME WILL BE CONSIDERED.
Please note: it is $25 to start with pay increase after 3 months. Also can provide great reference for careers to those individuals who stay on long-term, as I have my own private practice.
Also note, you must be willing to get a whooping cough vaccine as there is an infant in the household.
Looking for someone who can hang out with our 13 year old girl and 11 year old boy after school on Wednesday and Thursdays. Also some Saturday evenings and days in school holidays. Kids are chill and relatively self-sufficient, we need someone who is happy to keep them company and drive them to and from basketball and soccer, as well as supporting homework. Uno and monopoly skills are a bonus, as is a love for Guinea Pigs, cats and Taylor Swift.
