A little bit about us
All three kids are in a 5-day weekday school program from 9 AM–2 PM, so this role is a 50% childcare / 50% household support position. While the kids are at school, a significant part of the role will include household cleaning, family laundry, tidying, organizing, meal prep, errands, and special projects. We are looking for someone who is extremely organized, detail-oriented, proactive, and a self-starter who sees what needs to be done and jumps in.
When the kids are home, the focus shifts to childcare, including infant care, play, meals, school drop-offs/pick-ups, and driving to tutoring, after-school activities, swim, dance, parks, museums, playdates, and other fun outings. If a child is sick, school is closed, or the kids are on break, the schedule and responsibilities will adjust and childcare will become the priority.
Typical schedule is Monday–Thursday approximately 8 AM–11:30 AM & 2–7:30 PM and Friday 8 AM–11:30 AM & 2–5 PM. Flexibility is key! Occasional nights, weekends, and overnights may be needed for work events, school events, date nights, parent travel, or other family needs.
Candidates must have infant/multiple-child experience, current CPR training, U.S. work authorization, excellent references, a valid driver's license, current auto insurance, and a reliable vehicle that can safely accommodate three car seats.
We love to travel and would love someone excited to travel with us! Opportunities may include domestic and international trips.
We're looking for someone loving, energetic, hardworking, flexible, and dependable who enjoys both children and keeping a busy household organized and running smoothly!

School starts at 715 am so he must be picked up from our home and dropped off no later than 715 and we registered him for the afterschool program, so you have up until 5:30pm for pickup. On days he has activities pickup will be earlier but the goal is to allow you flexibility to knock out our tasks in the morning OR afternoon while he's at school.
