Our family is looking for someone to take care of our daughters Sophie (4 years old) and Ella (currently 10 months) on Thursdays (8am till 5pm) and Fridays (8am till 4pm). We live in a house in Annandale, within a short walk to the shops, library and parks.
Obviously we're biased but Sophie and Ella are both delightful little girls. Sophie loves sticker books, reading, going to the park, doing chalk on the street and playing make believe games. Ella is a very happy baby, constantly smiling and very interactive - she is on the move, and loves chasing her sister around.
Ella is a very good day sleeper - still on two naps (9-10am and 1-3pm - ish) during the day. During her big sleep Sophie has some 'quiet time' watching TV or listening to Yoto. We’re hoping that our carer can assist with basic housework (such as prepping/cleaning up the girls food, putting on a load of washing, or hanging out laundry) during this down time.
Currently on Thursdays Sophie attends acrobatics in Newtown at 11:15-12:15. Ella loves crawling around the space while Sophie is in her class. If we continue with this, you will need to drive the girls there and home, but we are not wedded to sticking with it if it's all too much.
We are an easy-going family, with no strict rules, or dietary requirements - we are just looking for someone loving and like-minded who will be present and treat our little girls as if they were their own.
Hourly rate will be between $35 an hour, depending on experience.
If this job sounds like it would interest you, we’d love to schedule a meeting.
