Location: Mount Martha, Mornington Peninsula
Hours: Monday to Friday, approx. 20 hours per week (ideally mornings, but we can be flexible)
Employment Type: Part-time
Start Date: ASAP

We’re a busy, fast-paced family of five living in Mount Martha, with three energetic kids aged 2, 5 and 8. Life is full, fun and always moving, and we’re searching for a warm, capable and detail-oriented housekeeper who can become a trusted helping hand and a valued part of our family.

This isn’t just a job to us — we’re looking for someone with high standards, who takes pride in their work, enjoys being around children, and brings a calm, organised presence to our home. Someone who’s proactive, dependable and wants to be with one family long-term — an extra pair of hands during the week, and over time, an extension of our family.

About the Role:

You’ll be responsible for maintaining the home, supporting with daily routines, and helping create a well-run, happy household.

Your tasks might include:

Cleaning and maintaining the home (double-storey) to a high standard

Laundry: washing, folding, ironing, linen changes

General tidying and home organisation (clothes, shoes, toys, school bags)

Light cooking and meal preparation, including school lunches

Grocery shopping, pantry organisation and occasional errands

Decluttering and maintaining organised spaces like wardrobes, cupboards and the linen press

We’re looking for someone who:

Has experience working as a housekeeper or in a similar role (minimum 2 years)

Holds high standards of cleanliness, order and presentation

Is caring, reliable, honest and trustworthy

Takes initiative and can manage tasks independently

Loves bringing calm and structure to busy family homes

Genuinely wants a stable, long-term position with one family

What you’ll need:

Police Check and Working with Children Check (or willingness to get them)

Two professional references

ABN preferred but not essential

We’re not looking for a cleaning company — this is a deeply personal role. We hope to find someone kind, committed and skilled, who wants to invest in a meaningful position and become part of our family life.

If this sounds like you, please email your resume and a short cover letter to: [email protected]

Only shortlisted applicants will be contacted.
