About Us
We're Jordan and Elise and live in Tweed Heads with our daughter. Jordan works as a Construction Project Manager and Elise is a Chiropractor returning to work part-time. We're pretty easy-going people who value God, family, good communication and treating people well.
We enjoy good food, trying new restaurants when we get the chance and generally prioritising our health, although these days most of our energy goes into keeping up with a busy 15-month-old. If we get a rare night to ourselves, we're usually on the couch watching a crime series or a rom-com. We love planning little family holidays, camping when time permits, and anything involving a good view, a warm fire or a trip to a bathhouse to properly unwind. We're hoping to find someone who feels like a natural fit with our family and is looking for a long-term role rather than just another babysitting job.
To Apply
Please send:
1. A brief summary of your experience with children under 2 years
2. Your availability for the next 6-12 months
3. Your hourly rate expectations
4. Confirmation of WWCC, First Aid and CPR
5. A brief description of your experience driving children to activities
6. Two recent childcare references
We look forward to hearing from you.
Jordan & Elise
