A little bit about us…

Seeking help with care for our one-year-old-daughter, light housework, and meal prep/cooking.

We WFH full time and would like 4 hours/5 days a week (open to discussion).

Our active, curious, gregarious daughter just turned one. We value responsive, respectful, attachment-oriented parenting. I (Mom) have a flexible schedule and ensure we are continuously available to engage and love on her throughout the day, so would love someone who is happy to fit in as needed. This might mean playing with baby for 30-60 minutes while we work, or tidying and making lunch while I nurse and play with baby.

- childcare: playing, feeding, reading
- Tidying / light housework
- Meal prep / cooking lunch / cleanup

We see grandparents regularly so imperative you take Covid precautions seriously and have high hygiene standards.

Thank you so much for considering this opportunity with our family. We look forward to hearing from you! :)

Need part time help for new baby (4 months) while I and my husband work. I work from home and will be home the whole time but need help a few days a week when my husband is gone.

Ideally you would take care of baby independently and possible assist with washing bottles and other light household cleaning such as tidying up his toys and such.
