We are a friendly family based in Ryde and are looking for an experienced, dependable and caring person to become a reliable, long-term part of our weekly routine.

During school terms, we are seeking after-school support on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, from 3pm - 6pm.

The role involves collecting our children (aged 7 and 5) from school at 3pm, walking them home (less than 10 minutes), and helping with afternoon snacks, homework and dinner preparation. On some days, we may also ask you to take them to after-school sporting activities, so a car is essential.

We will be home by 6pm on most days, with any later finishes arranged by mutual agreement.

There is potential for additional work during school holidays.

A current Working With Children Check (WWCC) and references are essential.

Questions babysitters and nannies ask

Do I need a Working With Children Check to babysit?
In New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania, not for casual, privately arranged babysitting in a family's own home. Queensland does require one for any paid babysitting. 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: $112 in NSW for five years, and from $87 to $145 elsewhere. 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 (and, for a Queensland blue card, its issue 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, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania and the Northern Territory. 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.

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.

How do families get in touch?
