Looking for A Caring and Reliable Nanny

EB
Active:

Basics: 4-5 days per week 8 am to 5 pm Start date is July 27, 2021 (or immediately) One year contract with possibility to renew 15$-20$ per hour depending on experience and qualifications Bonus upon completion of contract Nanny will be a sub-contractor (must be willing to give receipts for tax purposes) In our home in Sherbrooke, Québec Tasks required: Supervision of one child (2.5 years old) Some light housekeeping/meal preparation Experience and Qualifications Required: Previous childcare experience, preferably as a nanny to young children, or training in early childhood education First Aid CPR Criminal Record Check Optional: Waldorf, Montessori, or other alternative training. References required. About us: Our common language is French, mom’s mother tongue is English and the father’s is Spanish. We are a happy, loving family of three. My husband and I will be completing our final year of nursing school 2021-2022 so we are in great need of someone to take care of our wonderful child while we are at school. Our child is big, strong, and agile. He loves to play outside and at the kid's park. He’s not shy. He also loves to help out with household tasks such as cleaning and cooking. He also likes drawing and looking at books. I am very interested in Waldorf (Steiner) pedagogy, at this age, there is no formal teaching taking place but I find this method perfect for supporting the overall growth of the child. Some examples that I strive for are: strong daily and weekly rhythms that children can rely on, this frees energy that would be used for adaptation to a changing schedule to be used for growing and learning, free play outside at least two hours per day, and participation in meal preparation and cleaning. Importantly we are looking for someone who will really be there for our child during the initial separation process we have previously had a very poor experience. I like the blog post “Preschool Drop-Off” from Dr. Walfish on the subject. About you: You are looking for stable employment working with a young child. You love spending the day with a child. You are fun, warm, and caring, but also firm and very comfortable with setting limits and sticking to them. You are a good communicator and can expect the same from us. You are happy to work with some guidance from us but create your own schedule and management system. You will be respected and valued immensely by us. We have both taken turns as stay-at-home parents. Childcare is incredibly valuable work and takes talent and diligence. Also, it is so important to us that our child has a beautiful and trusting relationship with you, so we will always speak highly of you and if we have any problems we will come to you directly to work it out peacefully. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about the nanny wanted announcement, and I will be happy to speak/write with you!
