He is smart and loving but benefits from re-direction and a calm non-confrontational approach often.

We were looking for M-F, ideally 8am-1pm, but open to figuring out schedule/times.

A little bit about us
Our oldest is 6 and will be at school so he will only rarely be home.
Given his condition we are pretty Covid conscious.
We also have an 8yr old bull mastiff. He is indoors, very friendly and sleeps most of the day.
The main portion of the position will be to take care of the 18 month old, including feeding him, changing him, diapers, putting him down for naps and play. As stated above, the 6 yr old will be at school most of the time but he will need occasional looking after as well. We would like some light housekeeping which would mostly be picking up after the kids.
