Hello I am a new parent thinking of working part time, I would need coverage approximately 8-5pm or slightly altered
I would need infant care and I do have a dog that would need to be let out to use the bathroom.
This would be for August of 2025.
I am thinking 2-3 days of care needed. I am flexible on days for the most part but feel T/W/Th would be best for me.
