Work with us

Are you ready to have the most fulfilling job in the world?

• Babysitter/Nanny

  As a nanny, you will be working within a family home setting providing individual attention to the children in your care. Routines and activities are led by the parents, but there is plenty of room for you to enjoy creating new experiences for the children. As a nanny, you will also have child-related tasks. These may include light household duties such as meals and tidying up.

  Nanny work is regular, but can be flexible with our families requiring various days and times of care. You will be carefully matched with a family looking for care and as our employee, you won’t need to worry about insurances or WorkCover.

  You may also be offered the opportunity to obtain casual shifts as a babysitter where no ongoing commitment to a family is required. As a babysitter, you can work in various settings which may include the family home, hotel or other environments. You will be supervising and caring for the children’s needs while in your care.

• In-Home Care Educator

  The role of an educator is similar to that of a nanny, but there are some additions to the role. Just to explain the Government provides a service to eligible families, this is In-Home Care and the carer is an Educator. The difference between a nanny and an Educator is that just like an Early Childhood Centre, educators are required to work under the same framework and are governed by In-Home Care Standards. This means for you that you will also be supporting child-led activities to meet quality educational outcomes for children being cared for at home under In-Home Care.

  This position requires you to be a contractor.
