We are looking for a reliable, trustworthy and experienced nanny for our two boys (1 and 3) from January 2027. The eldest (3yo) will be at daycare which is at the bottom of the street for two of the three days.

You would need to be available on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from 7.30am until 5.30pm from January 2027.

Before then, if you are available for half a days' work on Monday or Tuesday that would be ideal so the kids can get used to you and I can start taking some small bits of work here and there.

The job will require you to do daycare drop offs and picks up on the Tuesday and Wednesday (is walkable distance from our house) and otherwise care for my 1 year old (and the 3 yo too on Mondays when he is not at daycare). The job would also require some light tidying, hanging out/bringing in laundry every now and then and light meal prep for the children (just simple things) when you are home with them.

We are two parents who have time consuming jobs and I (mum) am trying other get back into work after 3 years of being a stay at home mum. The two boys are really happy, healthy kids who love being outside and being active. the 1 year old is not yet walking so spends most of his time crawling as fast as possible to follow his big brother around. Going to the park and playing ball games are top activities. Local library is nearby (walkable) as well.

We had a nanny for a couple of days a week while we lived overseas for the past 3 years but have recently arrived back to Australia.

Our eldest can take some warming up to new people (especially since the move to Australia which has been a big change for him), but once he feels comfortable he is happy and playful.

We are generally no screens in our house and we don't have a TV. We find the tantrums after TV or videos are switched off are just not worth it!

I can't think of anything that I can tell you about our family. We don't have pets and non smoking household.

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, in Queensland $108.30 for three 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 (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 and Queensland. 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 Stanmore?
Babysitters and nannies already listed in Stanmore are asking between $15 and $65 an hour, across 143 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.
