We're a busy family running our own business, looking for a reliable, warm and organised after-school nanny to support our three children (ages 14, 13 and 8 - Years 8, 7 and 3).
Days/Hours: Monday to Thursday, 3:30pm - 6:30pm
Responsibilities
- Pick up our two daughters from the Pennant Hills bus stop at 3:45pm (our son walks home independently after school)
- Run a structured after-school routine that helps the kids build independence and good habits, rather than doing everything for them
- Assist and guide with homework - encouraging the kids to work through it themselves, checking in and helping where needed
- Involve the kids in packing their own school bags each evening, guiding them to ensure the correct books and equipment are ready for the next day
- Involve the kids in preparing their own lunches, assisting and overseeing rather than doing it all
- Prepare light afternoon meals/snacks
- Transport to and assist with after-school activities, mainly sport and tuition (own reliable car required)
- Encourage age-appropriate responsibility and routine - our kids are fairly independent, and we want someone who reinforces that rather than taking over
Requirements
- Current driver's licence and reliable car
- Working with Children Check
- Experience with school-aged children, ideally including pre-teens/teens
- Punctual, trustworthy and able to manage multiple kids' schedules
- Comfortable helping with homework across primary and early high school levels
- Someone who naturally coaches and involves kids rather than doing tasks for them
About the family
We're a professional family who run our own business, so we need someone dependable who can take ownership of a structured after-school routine and communicate well with us. Our kids are great - mostly independent - and we're looking for someone who supports that independence rather than replacing it.
