New to Langford/Westshore area (Millstream village neighbourhood), single shift-working father looking for flexible child care assistance. I have two lovely and active kids, a 7 year old boy and a 5 year old girl. I'm looking for some before and after school care, with two overnights a week while I'm on night shift. I work a 4 on/4 off schedule (think of it as an 8-day week). Two dayshifts, then two nightshifts. Working an 8-day week in a 7-day world means that my work days and days off rotate on a 6 week basis. So for example if I started work on Monday, I would need someone to get kids to school, pick them up after, prepare dinner for the kids. Same for Tuesday. On Wednesday, you would start work at 630 pm, and do the evening/bedtime routine, get a good nights sleep yourself, then do breakfast and get them off to school (this part is flexible). I'll sleep during the day. Thursday night, same routine. Friday would be my first day off, so you'd be up with kids, get them to school, and then be off. The next week, this would start on Tuesday. Obvious allowances made for school hours on Saturday and Sundays. While this is initially confusing, the pro is that I could give you a schedule months in advance. As well, there will be grandparents who will want to sub in occasionally. If you've made it this far, and have any questions, feel free to message me.
