Hi everyone,

We’re a family of four in Ashfield looking for a warm, reliable and energetic person to help us with after-school care two afternoons a week – Mondays and Thursdays.

We have two children, a 7-year-old boy in Year 1 and a 9-year-old girl in Year 3.

The role would involve school pick-ups, getting the kids settled at home, helping with homework, preparing simple snacks/dinner and generally helping with the after-school juggle.

We’re looking for someone who is kind, calm, fun and responsible, but also proactive and happy to pitch in where needed. Someone who enjoys spending time with kids, can take a bit of initiative and become a trusted extra pair of hands for our family would be perfect.

Ideally, we’d love to find someone interested in staying with us longer term.

Days: Monday & Thursday afternoons 3-5
Location: Ashfield
Start: As soon as mutually suitable

If you’re interested, please send me a DM with a little about yourself, your experience, availability and hourly rate. 😊

Questions babysitters and nannies ask

Do I need a Working With Children Check to babysit?
In New South Wales and Victoria, not for casual, privately arranged babysitting in a family's own home. Some states do require one for any paid babysitting: Queensland, the ACT and the NT. If you work as a nanny, au pair, or tutor, meaning regular ongoing care rather than the occasional evening, you do need one, and the parent is expected to verify it. What it costs depends on the state: in NSW $112 for five years, in Victoria $139.20 for five years. Where the line falls in NSW. How to become a babysitter in Australia covers the start.
How do I get verified?
Opt in from your profile once you have listed. You confirm a government photo ID with a matching selfie through Didit, our identity provider, which takes about two minutes, and give us your legal name, date of birth, and check number. We then check your status with the register that issued it ourselves, usually within 48 hours. Today we can check clearances issued in New South Wales and Victoria. If it comes back cleared and the details match your ID, your badge goes live with the month we checked. It is free. Exactly what we check.
What does it cost?
Nothing. Listing is free, verification is free, and there is no commission on what you earn. Babysitters and nannies stay free permanently, and families do not pay anything either. Why the site is free.
How much should I charge in Ashfield?
Babysitters and nannies already listed in Ashfield are asking between $20 and $65 an hour, across 103 profiles that state a rate. That is what families here are seeing, so it is a reasonable place to pitch yourself. Put a rate on your profile. Parents filter by it, and a profile without one is the easy one to skip. What moves a babysitting rate. How much to charge for babysitting is for when you are the one saying the number.
How do families get in touch?
Through messages on the site. Your profile shows your first name and last initial, your suburb, and your rate and availability. It never shows your address, phone number, or email. You decide what to share once you have talked to someone, and you can block anyone.
