It can be difficult to know how childcare experts find highly paid daycare jobs in Perth.
If you’re a trained professional, then chances are you’re looking to expand beyond word of mouth and referrals from friends or past clients. These can be slow in generating new clients and often not pay consistently or to the level of qualifications you rightfully deserve.
If you’re looking for new opportunities as a qualified babysitter we thought we’d outline a couple of effective options which are as follows;
Daycare Jobs via online directories
Placing yourself in online directories in your local area can be an effective way to occupy a common digital space which many parents visit when looking to hire a babysitter or childcare expert.
There are many directories in which you can take advantage of placing your contact information in and what’s more, they’re all mostly free.
Check out these:
- Gumtree
- E Child Care
- My Child Government Resource (for locating child care centres)

Daycare Jobs via Childcare Employment Agencies
In addition to job searching websites such as Seek, there are a number of specialised online employment agencies who focus on child daycare jobs.
Letting an agency do the hard lifting of selling you to their already established network of businesses and daycare jobs based off your skills and qualifications is certainly effective.
Many of these agencies work closely with businesses who regularly require childcare specialists.
If you’re looking for more structured work away from in-home daycare or babysitting jobs in Perth, this option might be right for you.
Social Media
Keeping up a presence across social media platforms while looking for daycare jobs or babysitting jobs in Perth is still worthwhile making an effort over.
On Facebook, in addition to creating your own business page to start cultivating a following behind, there are also a number of local groups and pages on Facebook which you will be able to find day-care jobs within or at least advertise your services.
Utilising these groups on Facebook is an effective technique due to content posted within and its reach to group members.
This is significantly higher than the tiny fraction of your audience who normally see any of your content, thanks to Facebook recently beginning to restrict audience engagement in an effort to monetise their platform.
Here are a few great local babysitting groups on Facebook to help you find daycare jobs:
- Anywhere In Perth Babysitting/Nanny Group
- Nannies, Au Pairs And Babysitters Perth WA
- Perth Nannies and Babysitters
Make sure you have an up to date LinkedIn account and that your account is ranked ‘All-star’ meaning it’s adequately complete. Many people underestimate simply how many job opportunities and potentially new daycare jobs leads can be generated from keeping this on point.

Get yourself an Instagram business profile and begin posting image content. Check out this useful guide on how to set up an Instagram business profile here by Local Measure.
This will allow you to learn expert insights about your posts and audience like when the best time of day is to post to reach the most of them! By following similar pages in your childcare industry and around your local area, you will begin to start cultivating a number of effective hashtags to target with your posts.
Just like an online directory your post advertising your business will appear here for people brows-ing that particular hashtag.
The better your image is, the higher chance someone is going to engage with it and thus learn more about you and your services so make sure you put a bit of thought into each one.
