A little bit about us

My schedule varies from week to week. Some days I only work 2 days during the week and other weeks I work 4-5. Sometimes I am on call from home and will be working on the computer and not be able to make dinner and care for Lorelei, other days I am traveling around the state and sometimes I am home by 8:30pm but most nights it is 9:30pm/10pm.

I have a 4 year old daughter with special needs, named Lorelei that I am in need of help with on rotating afternoons and the occasional overnight (probably once a month or once every other month for the overnight.) The general hours will vary from 6pm-9:30pm/10pm with rotating days during the week. This would entail You would have to pick her and my oldest up, drive from my parent's house to my house (about a 5 minute drive.)The evening would require making dinner most nights, light cleaning, entertaining Lorelei, bath, and bedtime routine. I am willing to pay $18 an hour starting after 3 months we can review about a raise.

I also have a 17 year old daughter named Jess who generally cares for herself, but does not drive. She would just need dinner, and can assist with Lorelei when needed, But otherwise, she would need no care. Her sleep is important to her well being, this is why I am looking for outside help.

I get my work schedule 2 months in advance for 8 weeks so I can provide when you will be needed ahead of time. I can offer multiple days as options and you choose 2. This is mostly to help my parents with the long hours I work so am willing to work with the days you would be needed.

CPR and drivers license is a necessity for the job. Preferred to have experience with kids on the spectrum.

Lorelei does already have a lovely Nanny for the morning hours she is unable to do afternoons or weekends as of recent.
