We are seeking a dedicated and enthusiastic individual to provide after-school tutoring, care, and transportation for our 16-year-old son, Hugo. This is a rewarding opportunity to make a real difference in Hugo's life by providing structured support as he navigates his academic and social activities.

About Hugo:
Hugo is a bright and engaging 16-year-old who faces several challenges, including visual impairment (no sight in one eye and moderate vision in the other), some motor skill challenges that means he requires extra support, and some mild learning issues. He is in Year 10 and a highly motivated student but requires structured support with his homework and assessments, particularly in maths, science, English, and commerce.

Responsibilities:
• After-school care (Monday-Friday, approximately 2:00 PM - 6:00 PM, occasionally until 7:00 PM):
o Picking Hugo up from school.
o Supporting him with his study planning for homework and assessments, including scheduling of work, note taking practices and organisation.
o Providing targeted tutoring support for Year 10 subjects, especially maths, science, English, and commerce, including reviewing homework and draft assignments, providing feedback, and some targeted instruction.
o Preparing his afternoon tea and snacks.
o Transporting him to and from the occasional after-school activities (e.g., speech therapy).
• Additional support (negotiable):
o Occasional meal preparation, considering Hugo’s dietary requirements.
o School holiday support (negotiable, ideally 10 AM - 3 PM, four days a week): Additional care and study support during school holidays, schedule to be agreed upon in advance

Ideal Candidate:
• Experience with and empathy for working children who require extra support, demonstrating a disciplined and creative approach to targeted academic assistance.
• Energetic, caring, and enthusiastic, with a genuine enjoyment of spending time with teenagers.
• Strong tutoring skills and understanding of the curriculum, particularly in Year 10 maths, science, English, and commerce.
• Ability to provide consistent and firm, yet supportive guidance.
• Valid driver's license and access to a reliable vehicle (we can provide our automatic car, or you can use your own).
• Valid Working with Children Check.
• Non-smoker.

Start Date: 1 May (including several months training/handover period with Hugo’s current helper).

Compensation: We offer flexibility in hours and are willing to discuss a competitive compensation package commensurate with experience.

If you are a compassionate and skilled individual passionate about helping teenagers thrive, we encourage you to apply. This is a chance to make a tangible difference in Hugo's life and be a part of his growth and development.

Myself and my partner Mae need a Nanny to help look after our son this week from 6th May to 9th. He is home from Day Care as he got some stitches on his forehead last week. We live in Wareemba and we need a nanny for full days for that time as we will both be working. Aidan is 2.5 years old, is adorable and the apple of our eye! We may need some Nanny help going forward also but if you were available this week, It would be great to chat about getting some help with him. Please reach out to me on 0433831590 if you are interested. Thanks
