About the Family:

A busy professional family with two awesome school-aged kids (12 & 10) who are looking for an afternoon nanny to bring fun, calm, and good vibes to their afternoons. In their family time they enjoy bike rides, walks, travel, and making memories.

• 12-year-old boy: Loves aviation, bike riding, swimming, and cooking. He catches the bus home, and is always up for a bike ride, board game, chess, or kitchen fun (just keep the fresh tomatoes away – he's allergic!).
• 10-year-old girl: A netballer, reader, crafter, dancer, baker, and budding acro superstar! Needs school pick-up, pick up from school debating on a Tuesday and drop off / pick up to acro on Thursdays.

· The family rounds out with their lovable 14 year old doggy who is super friendly.

What we are looking for:

Someone who can mix warmth, fun, and a bit of silliness with being reliable and organised. You'll be just as happy having a dance party or playing a board game on the lounge room floor as you are managing school runs, homework, and after-school activities. Afternoons might also include dog walks, park adventures, crafting or pool games—so energy, creativity, and a love of the outdoors are a must!

This family has a no-phone policy while on the clock (unless contacting the parents)—so no scrolling, just full-on engagement with the kids.

They're looking for a nanny who is:

• Honest, kind, and dependable
• Fun, positive, and enthusiastic
• Organised and proactive with tasks
• Calm, firm, and confident with behaviour management, with excellent emotional regulation skills
• A confident driver
• Comfortable in the water (bonus if you love pool games!)

Tasks:

• School pick-ups (girl needs collecting, boy takes the bus)
• Serve up healthy afternoon tea
• Supervise & help with homework & encourage good routines (bags unpacked, lunchboxes washed, etc.)
• Run the kids to after-school activities
• Light meal prep (chopping veggies and occasional cooking)
• General tidy-up after meals & activities
• Be the fun but steady presence who makes afternoons feel easy and enjoyable!

Transport

• Driver's licence required
• Own car needed (fuel allowance provided)

Must-haves

About the Family

This is a lovely opportunity to join a warm, professional family with three young children. Life here is active and hands-on, with plenty of time spent at the park, swimming, cooking together, playing at home, exploring new places, and catching up with friends and extended family.

The children are an absolute joy. The eldest (4.5) is excited to start Prep in 2026 and takes her role as big sister very seriously. She loves craft, books, swimming and outdoor tinkering — especially building and creating at the park rather than climbing everything in sight.

The 2.5-year-old twin boys bring plenty of energy and fun, keeping busy with action-packed play and adventures throughout the day. One furry friend (CAT) completes the family! This role would suit a nanny who loves being active, creative and feeling like a valued part of a family's everyday rhythm.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for a warm, reliable and experienced nanny who genuinely enjoys working with children. Someone with great judgement around safety, who can build relationships while also setting clear, age-appropriate boundaries. You'll be confident guiding behaviour, happy to take initiative, and bring a calm, positive energy to each day. Most importantly, you'll enjoy being a consistent, caring presence in the children's lives.

Nanny Duties & Responsibilities

• Sole care of 2.5-year-old twin boys
• Assisting with morning routines, including helping all children get ready for the day and packing lunches
• Preparing and serving meals and snacks for the children (supporting picky eaters with patience and creativity)
• Planning and engaging the children in age-appropriate, educational and play-based activities at home and in the backyard
• Taking the children on walks to local parks and outings (with the option to attend playgroup or activities if you have your own vehicle)
• Supporting daily routines including naps, quiet time and transitions
• General tidy-up after children's activities and meals
• Washing, putting away dishes, and keeping the kitchen tidy throughout the day
• Children's laundry, including washing, hanging, folding and putting away clothes
• Tidying children's bedrooms and play areas
• Caring for all three children during school holidays, with a mix of home-based care and local outings

If time allows:
• Changing children's linen weekly
• Taking out the kitchen bin as needed
• Occasional family meal prep (e.g. roasting vegetables once a week)

Transport

This role can be done without a vehicle. There are several parks within walking distance that can be accessed using the double pram. The family is also happy for the nanny to use their own car for outings if they have a licence, with car seats provided by arrangement.

Must-Haves

• Blue Card
• Police Check
• First Aid and CPR Certificate
• Minimum 2 years' experience with children
• 2 x reference checks
• Commitment of at least 12 months
• Whooping cough vaccination preferred (but not essential)
