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!

We are a small family of 3 and are looking for a nanny for our 8 year old son. Our son is a happy energetic loving child who is very good at maths, reading, music and spelling. We would like our nanny to be able to drive safely, pick him up from school, actively engage with his learning (writing and reading) and assist with his care in the evening - dinner and bedtime routine. Housework will be a part of the job description. Light cooking for our son and cleaning will be involved. We are both busy professionals and need someone who is trustworthy, punctual and very reliable. Engagement with his studies is important to us.

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 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 are looking for an enthusiastic, kind person to help us with our two daughters (5 and 3). We live in Fitzroy North. Our 5yo is in school, either a walk or short drive away for pickup. Our 3yo is in kinder, a 15-minute drive from home. Our girls are sensitive kids who respond to gentle, responsive care, and love someone who can be playful and fun with them. No learning or behavioural issues. We have had one wonderful nanny carer for the past 2 years, who became a loved member of our family. We are hoping to find someone who can fill the gap of her departure.
Conditions:
- Weekly hours (these are not flexible due to the nature of our jobs):
o Thursdays 3-6pm – pickup of 3yo from kinder and 5yo from school and care until the first of us gets home from work.
o Friday 8am to 6/7pm – at home with 3yo all day, pickup 5yo from school.
- Ideally could also do a pickup on Monday or Tuesday on an ad hoc basis.
- There would also be some light housework (hanging out washing, unloading the dishwasher etc)

We are looking for a full time nanny to look after our little 9 month old baby boy.
We will need 40hrs per week across 4 days (10hr days) Monday through Thursday starting from the 4th August. Starting from the 2nd June we will be looking for 2 days per week (6hr days) to ease with the transition to full time care.
A little about us... Theo will be one when starting full time care and is a clever, playful and fun little boy. He enjoys walks, music, reading, games and is very social - loves smiles and chatting 😊 He has been on purely solids for two months now and so is fully weaned and enjoys his food. He is already crawling and may even start walking soon!
We live in a house with plenty of play areas indoor and out. We're just off Glenferrie Rd in Hawthorn so while a car is helpful, it's not essential as we are super close to the station, tram, library, cafes, playgrounds etc.
A little about you... A WWCC check is essential. It would also be great if you have experience with infants. We're after someone friendly, reliable and trustworthy.
If this sounds like an interesting role, feel free to reach out with any questions you may have or send through your resume/CV 😊
