Placement Consultant – Nanny Recruitment
Part-Time, School Hours | Built for Mums Returning to Work
Gracie Boutique Nanny Agency | Malvern, Melbourne (one day WFH) | Part-time, 30 hours/week, Monday–Friday school hours | $53,040 base ($67,184 FTE) + uncapped bonus
A role built around school pick‐up, not the other way around
You've got the skills: the organisation, the communication, the ability to juggle a dozen things at once without dropping the ball. What's been hard to find is a role that respects the school bell or the daycare cut‐off.
At Gracie, our whole business exists to help families make work and family life fit together. We want to do the same for our own team. This role is designed with mums returning to work in mind, on hours that fit around drop‐off and pick‐up. No guilt, no sneaking out early, no pretending you don't have kids.
That said, you don't need to juggling school runs to apply. If you're simply after a great part‐time role with real earning potential, whether you're studying, semi‐retired, building a side project or just want a better balance, we'd love to hear from you too.
