We’re a little family in the Northern suburbs of Melbourne. Our family is made up of 4, myself (Crystal), my husband (Ian), our teenager daughter (Mia), and then our newest member, baby Frank!
Mia is 14 yo and currently in year 9 at high school. Mia enjoys all things art and is often creating or designing something when not at the gym learning Brazilian Ju-Jitsu. Mia is very active and very self sufficient getting herself to and from school every day.
Frank (Frankie) is just the cutest boy with the cheekiest smiles. He was born in September 2023 and is only 8 months old. We have a good routine with Frank and he is a very happy boy. He's just starting to move, roll and pivot but not as yet learnt how to crawl. He loves his swimming and bath time, splashing in the water.
Ian is a Facilities Coordinator and is on the road a couple of times a week, working from home the rest. I am an Operations Manager and work from home most days.
We enjoy getting out and about as a family. We are part of a 4WD club and have made some excellent friendships within that club that get us out and about and exploring the countryside. We have family close by and will often have family dinners. Ian is really into smoking meat at the moment, so we're having lots of delicious meals with family and friends often. Life is not too serious for us, we love to laugh, especially at ourselves. And we tend to surround ourselves with likeminded people.
We live in a large house in the northern suburbs of Melbourne with a real country feel. We often spot kangaroos on our walks, have rabbits visit our backyard with an occasional wombat sighting too. We know our neighbours and live in a good part of the neighbourhood with the train station a 3-minute walk from the front door.

Main duties include caring for a 8mo boy, M-F during working hours (8am to 4pm). Household duties, such as tiding up, vacuuming, laundry, etc and meal preparation when the baby sleeps.
You would have your own room, with TV and would need to share a bathroom with the children. We provide a phone with sim card.
We live in a large house and have two loungerooms, two dining rooms and a large backyard so there is definitely room / space to make your own.
Weekly wage is $300 - $400 AUD including living expenses (private room, all meals, mobile phone).
