Nannies
Your children are very precious, so it is important that you
feel comfortable in leaving them with a nanny/babysitter. Our
screening is very thorough.
All our nannies have a minimum of 2 years experience. Many have
a certificate or diploma in childcare and a first-aid certificate.
Others have many years of Nanning experience behind them.
When our nannies and babysitters register with us they are
interviewed and have to provide written references as well as
verbal references. We also do the "working with children" check
through the Department of Community Services.
All our nannies are required to do light household duties, for
example, empty and stack the dishwasher, wash and fold the clothes
and cook a meal. They do not do the heavy cleaning, such as
cleaning bathrooms and vacuuming.
Mothers Help
Casual, Permanent full time or part time (live-in or
live out)
Mothers help nannies assist stay at home parents with the
day to day activities of caring for their child or children.
If your partner is sick or away on business, we have nannies
that can move in to help assist you with your children. The
nanny's role entails childcare and light household duties e.g.
emptying the dishwasher, putting out or bringing in a load of
washing, it does not normally involve heavy cleaning such
as bathrooms or vacuuming.

live-out)
A sole charge nanny has the responsibility of attending to all
the needs of the child or children of working parents.

the activities such as taking children to and from swimming

meals, bedtime routines, as well as light household duties.
