We’re looking for a wonderful babysitter to join our family!
We have a 3.5-year-old girl, a 19-month-old boy, and we’re expecting a baby girl in October 2025. We're after someone reliable and experienced with babies and toddlers, as the role will mostly involve caring for our baby and 19-month-old (our eldest attends kinder).
You’ll need to be available Mondays and Fridays in 2025, and then Mondays, Wednesdays (half day), and Fridays in 2026. Hours are 7am to 3pm, with Wednesdays in 2026 likely being a half day (e.g. 7am–1pm) just with our baby (our toddler will be with grandparents).
In early 2026, care will focus on our baby—including bringing her to my nearby workplace for feeds when needed.
We’re based in a 4-bedroom home with a big backyard, close to parks, walking tracks, shops, and the local library. You’re welcome to drive our car (with car seats), and we’ll treat you like part of our family.
Please only apply if you are not currently a uni student, as we need someone who can commit to consistent days and early starts.
Bonus: We have lots of local friends also looking for a nanny, so if you're after more hours, we’re happy to connect you!
To apply, please email your resume and cover letter to zara@zandaspeech.com.au – we look forward to hearing from you!
Hi my husband and I are busy lawyers residing in Ivanhoe and require a nanny to assist with our 20month old son 1-2 afternoons a week (Monday/ Tuesdays). We will require pick up from day care, preparation of snacks and dinner. Candidate to have license/ car seat and all requisite checks to care for children and experience.
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 All,
I'm a parent of a young boy, who is 8 years old.
I work casual hours, weeknights and weekends, any time during the day (but never overnights).
I'm seeking a Nanny / Mothers help that is qualified in Early Education or studying towards.
Payment is via an agency so I get the government subsidy. This is not a cash in hand role.
A Nanny that is engaging and loves working with kids.
My boy is super easy to look after but is a little fussy when it comes to eating, so someone that is confident in the kitchen that knows a little more than the basics would be ideal. I provide all meals most of the time but your input on occasion would be welcomed.
My work is adhoc, you will be one of a few nannies, so no pressure to always be available.
Please get in touch if you wish to chat further :)

We’re looking for a special person to care for our wonderful 4-year-old daughter, who has a physical disability and epilepsy. She is full of life, loves to play, chat, and engage with everyone.
Our amazing nanny is off to pursue a career in nursing, so we’re searching for someone equally great to take over.

She also requires physical assistance throughout the day.

Both kids are very easygoing and happy to entertain themselves, and they don't have any soecial needs or dietary requirements.

Hi, my name is Ana and I'm looking for a nanny to look after and entertain my 3-year-old daughter, Evelyn, and my 16-month-old son, Harrison, 2 days per week for 2 hours at a time so I can do some work from home. May increase to three days if all goes well. At this stage, I'm thinking Monday, Tuesday or Thursday between 2:30-4:30pm. I've set the rate at $25p/h since I'll be home and can handle toileting/nappy changes, but happy to discuss the pay for the right applicant. Experience is highly desirable, but since I'll be at home and available as needed, I'm really looking for someone who can be caring, engaging, playful, patient and proactive with my kids. The role might involve providing some snacks and some light tidy up afterwards, but on the whole, I think it's a pretty "easy" role.
