Loving Home with A Healthy Environment for Everyone, Needs A Full Time Child Care Giver / Nanny

Active:

When? * 40 hours is ideal, but we will consider everything from 30 hours - 50 hours. * Permanent position (minimum commitment of 1 year from a candidate, but we hope it will extend longer) * Ideal is some hours during typical office hours, and some hours in the evening or on weekends. We can be flexible for the ongoing schedule, but would want some flexibility for exceptions. Who? * Three children: A 6 year old child, a 3 year old toddler, and a baby. Why Is It A Great Job? * Loving home * Not live-in (so you don't have to be on-call all of the time or be interrupted in your personal time) * Janitorial duties are limited (we have a janitor service that comes weekly to do the bulk of the cleaning) * Paid time budgeted for "planning" time with kids (so you can be prepared, making for a less stressful day with the kids, as well as learn new skills for child care). * A family that will be appreciative of your help and respectful to you. * Paid trips to vacation locations (not required if you don't want to, but you would get a free trip, some free time, personal spending allowance, and a separate room to stay in). Responsibilities * Keep the kids safe. * Unstructured playing with the kids (lego, visiting a store, hanging out in the back yard, etc). * Structured playing/teaching with the kids (toys with building instructions to follow, children's chemistry experiments, visiting a forest to identify leaves, etc). * Bed-time routine including reading books to the kids and snack-time. * Preparing snacks (you don't have to be a great cook, we can prepare the complex meals if you are worried about that). * Satisfy the kids' curiousity. Requirements: * Formal or incidental experience with young children and toddlers. * Good references (you must include in your cover letter a detailed list of what different communities and social groups you are connected to) Nice To Have: * Obviously it may prove difficult to find someone with all the below, so they are just "nice to haves". Don't let it discourage you from applying. * Formal experience with children (previously a nanny, teacher, daycare worker, lots of babysitting experience, etc). * Training on early childhood development. * Able to cook meals for everyone. Things To Include In Your Cover Letter / Resume: * Informal experience that isn't on your job resume (like if you have younger siblings that you took care of, babysitting for family friends, etc) * A detailed list of what different communities and social groups you are connected to. * Note that we don't need fancy job resumes, it is the information that matters more. * Your ideal number of hours per week * Your ideal times of day for working, as well as how flexible it is or isn't. Search words: child care assistant, child care worker, child care provider, child care teacher, child care room leader, teacher key stage 1, nanny, live-out nanny, live-in nanny, au pair, homecare worker, household worker, housecare worker, housekeeper, housekeeping.
