About Coastal Babysitters

For almost 10 years, Coastal Babysitters has been helping families across the Gold Coast, Brisbane and Byron Bay enjoy everything from date nights to weddings, corporate events and everything in between.

With more than 1,300 five-star Google reviews, we're proud to be one of Australia's leading babysitting agencies. Every day, we help parents enjoy some well-deserved time out, knowing their children are having just as much fun as they are.

As we continue to grow and launch exciting new technology, this role is evolving too. We're looking for someone who's business minded, enjoys solving problems, embraces technology and loves finding better ways of doing things.

The type of person we're looking for:

Every booking is different.

Sometimes everything runs perfectly. Other times a babysitter becomes unavailable, a family needs care that same day, or plans change unexpectedly.

The person we're looking for sees these moments as a challenge, not a problem.

They don't stop at the first "no". They keep thinking, making calls and exploring every option until they've done everything they can to find a solution.

If your first instinct is...

"There has to be a way."

...rather than...

"It can't be done."

...you'll probably fit right in.

You're also someone who doesn't just answer enquiries, you build relationships. You enjoy getting to know each family's needs, recommending the right solution with confidence, and making the most of every opportunity to turn an enquiry into a booking. You understand that providing exceptional service and helping the business grow go hand in hand.

You're someone who naturally sees the bigger picture. You don't just solve today's problem. You notice patterns, think ahead and look for opportunities to improve our systems, customer experience and the business as a whole.

You'll thrive in this role if you:

• Love solving problems and can confidently juggle multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
• Stay calm under pressure and enjoy making decisions
• Build rapport quickly and communicate confidently and professionally
• Have excellent attention to detail and enjoy learning new systems and technology
• Take ownership, back yourself, and aren't afraid to think outside the box
• Think commercially, recognise patterns and naturally look for opportunities to improve systems, the customer experience and the business.
• Genuinely enjoy helping people and making a positive difference to their day

Experience we'd love to see:

We're much more interested in finding the right person than someone who's worked in childcare before. This role could be perfect for someone looking to step away from full-time corporate life, return to work after raising a family, or find a meaningful role with flexible school-friendly hours. If you love solving problems, building relationships and making a genuine difference every day, we'd love to hear from you.

Experience in any of the following would be highly regarded:

• Customer service, relationship management or sales, where you've built rapport, delivered exceptional service and confidently turned enquiries into happy customers.
• Scheduling, rostering, recruitment or coordination, where you've successfully managed multiple moving parts and solved problems on the go.
• Hospitality, hotels, travel, events, healthcare or property management, or any other fast-paced, customer-focused environment where no two days are the same.
• Roles where you've taken ownership, thought on your feet and genuinely enjoyed helping people while contributing to business growth.
