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

  • Blue Card / Police Check
  • First Aid & CPR Certificate
  • Minimum 2 years' nanny experience
  • 2 glowing references
  • Open driver's licence
  • Commitment of at least 12 months
