Hannah was fantastic with our three young kids. Our youngest two often get quite upset when a babysitter arrives but Hannah very quickly put them at ease and made it very easy for us to get out and enjoy our evening. Will be back in touch whenever we're back in Melbourne.

Blackburn South VIC, Australia

My wife and I have 2 kids: a 2 and half year old girl and 17 month old boy. We are looking for a nanny to help out on occasional evenings and weekends. The boy is energetic and runs around a lot and very very approachable. The girl is a bit more shy with new people. You will not need to handle 2 kids at once unless they are watching TV and either me or my wife will be home either working on a laptop or doing housework. Kids like to do Lego, play with their toy pianos, the girl likes singing and dancing. We have a big grassy backyard with plenty of stuff to do. If you are coming on the weekend the goal will be to get them very active on weekday evenings we are open pretty much to anything. Please respond with your availability for the following days: Wednesday, Thursday, Friday (6-8) PM ($60) Weekends 8:30 AM to 1 PM (if you start with this will double the price to $120) Also let us know if you have a police check and phone numbers of babysitting references.

Lovely, warm and a natural with kids. Also easy to deal with. Would recommend!

Nanny needed casually for after school

$5

Melton South VIC 3338, Australia

31st May 2025

I am a solo parent running a mobile and at home salon beauty business and require some support with care for my 4 year old daughter Victoria. Our last tasker just stopped responding after I’d approved her offer so I’m urgently trying to find somebody to potentially start next week! Nanny required on a casual basis for after childcare from 6:30pm. Must have a drivers licence and be available to pick up at 6:30pm. Must be available sometimes at the last minute - if possible - as I am a lash tech and get bookings sometimes 2 days or 1 day before. I am flexible with this though. Must be able to prepare meals and do some housekeeping as it’s a huge struggle keeping up with washing and household duties while working 5-7 days sometimes. Must be okay with animals - we have 2 miniature dachshunds and 1 cat. Must be able to feed them sometimes if I am working late. My after hours range from finishing at 7:30pm and finishing at 11pm! I am mobile and at home salon technician. Weekend availability is also a plus but I am not always working weekends. A little about my girl, she loves going for bike rides after school around our area sometimes after school, she is very affectionate and lovessss to chat! But also loves to relax in her playroom, play with her toys, draw, paint and watch tv! She is very self sufficient, loves to do household chores like unloading the dishwasher and loves helping prepare meals. And is a very girly girl. I am flexible and set my own hours so if you send me your availability I will ensure to only schedule those times 🙏✨ Thank you ❤️

From the moment we met Taryn, I felt completely at ease. She’s warm, professional, and has a natural connection with children. She instantly bonded with my daughter, Victoria within minutes and created a safe, loving, and playful environment that made Victoria feel seen, heard, and happy. As soon as Taryn left, Victoria raved about how much she missed her.
