I'm a single dad with full-time custody, looking for a warm, fun , energetic and reliable nanny/housekeeper in the Caulfield area. I need someone flexible with hours, who has a driver’s license for school drop-offs and pick-ups. While my child is at school, I’d love help with general housework and preparing simple, home-cooked meals. A kind, easygoing nature is a must—we're looking for someone who feels like part of the family! contact me if this sounds like a good fit.
The ideal candidate will have a mature, friendly and FUN,sense of humour personality, excellent attention to detail, be super tidy and be an expert at running an organised household. Experience in a similar role is a MUST.
One of our lovely sitters is moving on and we are hopeful someone can help us on a Thursday before and after school, and also Tuesday and Friday mornings. ! Our two children Thomas 8yrs old & Lilli 11yrs old attend two differing schools. You would be required to arrive at 7.30am on the mornings and assist our youngest with getting ready for school. With our spare car, an Audi A4 wagon, you will drop off Thomas to Grimwade in Elsternwick and - occasionally - Lilli to Korowa in Glen Iris and then drive back to Elsternwick to bring back the car. All done by 8:30 or so!
For Thurs afternoon - 2.45pm you will arrive at our home to use our car to pick up children, Thomas first and occasionally - the reverse order to morning drop-off.
Upon returning to our house, the following routine is typical:
-30min play/snack period
-Lilli to complete her homework
-bath or shower Thomas
- cook up dinner for the two children (I usually prep veggies and meal for you)
-This shift ends circa 6.30-7pm
-ideally kitchen and living area are both tidy when we arrive home. And that’s it!
Our two children are beautiful, cuddly and polite and Lilli can assist with Thomas. Your own car is not essential however your ability to drive is. Both my husband Mark and I work full time but we are always a text message away.

I am looking for a babysitter who can really engage with my kids who are 5 and 8.
They have vastly different personalities so you need to be able to speak with them and engage with them differently , creatively and compassionately and sometimes be a mediator ! It will really come down to how well you can interact with them and really how much they gravitate towards you.
Everything else that I would require is the standard police check , wwc , driving , responsibility and safety etc etc !
At the moment it is casual work moving into the holidays and then it’ll be regular !
Look forward to chatting if you’re free, available and willing to!
