A little bit about us…

I will be starting a new job on 9/20 which will require me to work on site for the first month. We have two kids at home, a two year old and a newborn and are really just looking for an extra set of hands for 4 hours a day M-F, preferably either 11a-3p or 12:30p-4:30p. My wife would be at home during this time so mostly what the role would be doing is helping with snacks/ light lunch, cleaning up from said snacks/lunch, loading the dishwasher and keeping an eye on one kid while my wife has the other one for naps/feeding. Nothing too major, but we do not have any family in the area so an extra set of hands would be a great help. If this is something you may be interested in, we would love to connect
