Nanny Services

**Our Family**:

- We're a family based in St Kilda looking for a wonderful nanny to help care for our two children for 5 hours per week - a sweet (sometimes boisterous) and curious 3-year-old girl and a creative, fun-loving 5-year-old boy. Our son attends kindergarten for 15 hours a week, while our daughter has not been in care before. It may take her a little time to adjust, but she's very social and loves meeting new people. Both kids are kind, playful, and full of imagination. They love hands-on activities - magnets, cars, train tracks, and building structures are favorites for our son, while our daughter enjoys painting, drawing, and playing with her Sylvanian Families.

**Your Duties**:

- For now, we're looking for a nanny to care for our children at home one morning per week (ideally for 5 hours). Since we don't have family support nearby, we'd also love someone open to occasional evening babysitting when needed. I'm currently exploring the possibility of starting a new business and would like dedicated, distraction-free time to focus on my work while knowing my children are in safe and loving hands. This position will begin as a trial, with a six-month goal in mind. I want to be upfront that if the business isn't proving successful, the arrangement may come to an end at that point.

**Our Perfect Caregiver**:

- We're looking for someone who is nurturing, kind, and gentle - able to set boundaries with warmth and understanding. Someone who loves imaginative play enjoys getting involved in storytelling, arts, and crafts and brings fun and creativity into each day. We'd love a nanny who is hands-on, engaging, and enjoys teaching through play, fostering our children's curiosity and love for learning. Most importantly, we need someone patient and reassuring to support our daughter as she adjusts to being in someone else's care. Our son can display some neurodivergent traits, so we'd love a nanny who is patient, understanding, and able to adapt to his unique way of engaging with the world.
