We are a friendly family in St Leonards looking for a reliable and caring nanny for the period from 24 November November to 16 December, and 12 to 20 January 2027. We need support two days a week (Tuesdays and Wednesdays, 2pm-7pm).
About the role
This is a short-term, casual position for November to January 2027 (but we do intend to continue hiring after we return from travelling from late March 2027). We are looking for someone who is calm, attentive, and enjoys engaging with toddlers. During your shift, your time will be split between active childcare and light household support while I work from home.
Future Potential
While this role is for November to January 2027, we are very interested in finding the right person to join our family on a longer-term basis when we return from our overseas trip in late March. If we are a great fit for each other, there is a strong possibility of this becoming a recurring, long-term role upon our return.
Key Responsibilities
- Childcare: Engaging in age-appropriate play, reading, feeding (milk/solids provided by me), nappy changes, and assisting with bath time routines.
- Light Household Help: During nap times, we would appreciate help with light chores, such as folding baby laundry or basic kitchen tasks (e.g., dishes).
- Outings: Occasionally accompanying us on local outings, such as walks or appointments.
Requirements
- Experience in childcare.
- Current Working With Children Check (WWCC).
- First Aid/CPR certification preferred.
- Reliable, patient, punctual, and proactive.
- Non smoker, Driver's License, Parent References, WWCC
What we offer
- A welcoming and supportive home environment.
- Consistent, reliable hours for the months of November 2026 to January 2027.
- The potential for ongoing, long-term employment starting in late March 2027.
