Finding nanny & babysitting work
Looking for a nanny job or babysitting work? Where you look shapes what you find, and it makes a real difference to your pay and safety.
Start with agencies
Research the nanny and babysitting agencies local to you. A good agency matches you with families who fit, checks those families are genuine, sets pay up fairly, and supports you through the placement. Many Australian agencies are nanny-run, so you are dealing with people who understand the work.
A note on social media and job boards
Community groups and job boards can turn up work, but they are also where rates are most often below market, and sometimes below minimum wage, with no vetting and no support if something goes wrong. Use them with your eyes open, and know your worth before you reply.
