Nanny/ Housekeeper

MB
Active:

I am a single mother of 2 beautiful boys (1 and 3), and Expecting another child in March. Currently, my boys are in daycare 4 days a week and I am doing everything, in addition to working full time. I need help with all household chores: cooking, cleaning, laundry; and childcare when they are not in daycare and I have to work. My work schedule Sept 15 through Mar 15 is a bit more flexible and not quite full time hours. During this time, we all live in South Surrey. April 1 through Sept 10, my work schedule is closer to 70 hours a week, and we all live in Sorrento. This is a small town located in the Shuswap, which is about a 4-hour drive from Vancouver. During this time, you would probably need to be a live-in worker because it is out of town and I need a lot more help. I don't expect you to work as many hours as me, but I do need someone around when I have to be called out for guests. I manage a lakeside Resort, so I need to handle all check-ins and check-outs, and all other guest requests. The out of town portion is what previous employees have not preferred. The town small but the weather is sunny for almost the whole 5 months. I also have a boat and other water toys to enjoy on time off, or a cable box with HBO and Netflix, if you prefer. I am very flexible and I am hoping to hire more staff for the Resort next season so I'm not working so many hours. Also, I just found out that I'm having twins, so I don't expect to be able to have the energy to do as much next season. :) Job Description Looking for domestic help with my 4 children: boy 4yrs, boy 2yrs, 2 girls newborn. Currently, the boys are 1 & 3 and I am pregnant with twins. Duties include: supervise and care for children (bathe, play, feed), light housekeeping, laundry, meal prep (I will do the cooking), minor pet care (2 small dogs live in the home). Could be live-in or live-out position, room and board can be provided at no additional charge. The position involves living in Sorrento April-Sept, and then in Surrey Sept-April. Sorrento is a rural area with minor extracurricular activities available. Surrey is a major metropolitan city and has all of its usual conveniences.
