A little bit about us

I am looking for loving and competent childcare while I am undergoing medical treatment. My children mean the world to me but unfortunately for much of my treatment I will be unable to play with them and provide more than their basic care. Immediate need will be through March, with the possibility of a longer term arrangement for someone who is the right fit. I am unsure of the hours as I do not know how treatment will affect me but I expect 20h/week to be the average.

That is where you come in: I am looking for a bright, attentive caregiver to step in and keep them learning and exploring while I’m receiving care. A college degree is not strictly necessary, but the toddler has defeated almost every baby proofing measure and child-resistant container in the home, so you will need to be alert and able to think one (or four!) steps ahead. The baby is a dream but has learned from big sibling that getting into everything is loads of fun.

We live on an acre of land near town and the toddler knows how to pull weeds and harvest food. My parenting philosophy is to involve my kids in as many activities of daily living as I can and I would hope any caregiver for them would be able to do the same. The baby gets zero screen time and the toddler gets virtually none in our home. We eat most anything but the baby gets no MSG and no added sugar before 18 months. We do baby led weaning so the kids eat what we eat. We do not do “kid food”.

This is a neurodiverse and LGBTQ+ friendly home.
