Hello!
We are a happy and friendly family of 5 who live in Albert Park, right near the Village, beach, parks and all that our wonderful suburb has to offer.
We have three little boys, Charlie 4, Henry 2 and Billy who is 4months (born November 2024). So we are a very busy household looking for an extra pair of hands to help our day to day run smoothly.
Looking for someone who is able to help take the older boys to their activities (Tuesday for a half day morning and Friday a full day) , or alternatively stay home with the baby so I am able to spend some time with them at their activities. Henry and Charlie are both in daycare and kinder a few days a week and we are also looking for someone to help out with some pickups (around 4:30pm -7:30pm) 2-3 evenings a week (flexible with days and finish time!)
Also looking for someone who is able to look after Billy on occasion so I can duck out and get some things done during the week when the others are in care. Further to this - availability for the odd date night and weekend work is an added bonus too!
We are very friendly and relaxed family and love welcoming nanny’s and babysitters into our homes and always do our best to make everyone feel part of the family and welcome in our home.
If you are available for any or all of these requests please reach out so we can chat further!

We are looking for a nanny who has a WWC, is First Aid and CPR trained, COVID and Flu vaccinated and minimum 2 parent references. Additionally, a valid driver licence and clean driving record. It would be a bonus if you speak French and would speak that with our girls from time to time.

Hello ❤️ we are a new family: baby Bo, kim and Mosa -
A small and laid back and very loving family looking for some extra support. Baby Bo is just 18 months and walking and talking and starting to become a little more independant.
Mosa owns her own buisness so has been able to be a working-stay-at-home-mumma and now looking to spend a little more time on the job.
Our babe Bo is very sweet and smart and sensitive. Shes very interactive and quick and loves cuddles and exploring. She really is a magnetic and magically soul. We’d love someone with experience who can continue to develop her curiosity and intelligence as well as someone who is comfotable with lots of cuddles and lap sitting and chats as she’s very focussed on peopel & a tactile cutie.
We are between Castlemaine and South yarra - only looking for support in south yarra - my parents have an empty house on fawker park - its a beautiful spot, right on the park which makes baby sitting that much easier.
We are flexible with hours - for the right person we can make whatever work. At the moment, looking for support over Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
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.
