Job Description
Our Family
Hello wonderful child carers, I am a mum of 2 gorgeous humans (2 1/2 yr old girl & 6m old boy) We live together with my husband, who is away frequently for work (defence) and we are coming into a period of 6 weeks away straight so I’d love a bit of help. Our little girl absolutely loves everything hands on - building, fixing, baking, art, outdoors. She also absolutely loves running / climbing / jumping & basically never sits still. She also no longer has a day nap. Our little guy - he is coming into his clingy mum stage - so will probably stay with me. But may want to join his sister playing with some toys if he’s in the mood.
Your Duties
I would not expect any meal cooking / prepping / housework / laundry or nappy changing. I am absolutely okay with all of these. I also wouldn’t expect feeding & sleeping for our little guy - it’s my favourite bonding time with him. If you wanted to bake with the toddler - absolutely go for it - my kitchen is your kitchen. I would likely stay at home also - just doing housework & chores and tending to the little guy. On occasion I may have appointments I need to attend without the eldest or either of them - but this would be discussed well in advance to make sure you were okay with them both for me to pop out. In all honesty, I’d really just love some help 2-3 days a week keeping the toddler entertained and stimulated especially when dad is away and I have them 24/7 by myself.
Our Perfect Caregiver
someone who loves children. Someone who is so happy and content playing with kids and making them feel special and safe. We have tried daycare in our previous location - and she loved it once she settled in. However we are only here until the end of August this year and I do not wish to take her out of the home environment and unsettle her for such a short amount of time to just remove her again to relocate again. I want you to feel right at home in our home, I want you to be comfortable and feel at ease with our babies.
