A little bit about us
They are on a shared custody schedule, alternating every other week. Hours are flexible based on how much or how little the right candidate wants to take on, but typically Monday-Friday for approximately 5-8 hours daily.
I’m looking for someone who is interested in helping with care during the weeks my kids are with me, and possibly some help on the weeks they aren’t, with light house duties and animal care.
I work full time and am in law school, both of which require some amount of travel. There may be a need for someone to travel with my kids and I, (expenses covered) or to stay overnight for the custodial time. I do have a mother in law apartment that is furnished, or a guest bedroom.
As far as care goes - I’m looking for someone to assist with managing their schoolwork, helping with meals, and some tidying/household chores (mostly helping the kids with routines).
I have two cats - French Fry and Potato, and a dog, Angus.
My son does have a bleeding disorder that is mostly self managed but it will be important to understand it. Both kids have struggles with distractions, and need gentle re-direction efforts.
Pay will be dependent upon the amount of responsibility the person I hire is interested in taking on, all of which can be discussed. If there is interest in living on property, that can also be discussed as part of the compensation. It’s a full, separate house, furnished, with a dishwasher and washer/dryer in unit, with a separate driveway.
Being able to teach piano, and Spanish speaking candidates would be a plus, and the ability to transport the kids to and from activities for their homeschool would be a great help.

We an active family that loves to go outside. We have a room available and ideally would love a live in nanny. I would be open to someone bring their child to our home as well. Light house keeping and cooking may be required some days. We have a cat and a dog so you must be pet friendly.
Look forward to chatting soon.
