Hello, I'm seeking a mature and experienced nanny for 5 regular long days per month, plus ad hoc extra days as needed. The set days will be regular each month and include 2 Tuesdays and 2 Thursdays (in the same weeks of the month), and 1 Wednesday. Occasional extra days will come up each month, mostly weekdays and occasionally a Saturday - I would offer you this work and can make other plans if you're not available.
My baby daughter will be 3 months old when I return to work in the medical field. Experience, trustworthiness and reliability are most important. Nursing, midwifery, early childhood or other similar qualifications (including cooking!) would be highly valued and I can be flexible wherever possible to make things work for the right person. Ideally you would live in a nearby suburb so that transport/commuting is not a factor.
Start time 7am most days, occasionally 6.30am (once/month usually, occasionally one extra early start per month). Finish time around 6.30pm, may vary by 1/2 to 1 hour either side. Some flexibility is required on occasions if I get stuck at work. I will always have a backup family member available for emergencies, but would really value someone who understands the nature of my work commitments and who can usually be flexible when needed.
Main focus of course is the baby and associated tasks; keeping the house clean and tidy and running nicely would be much appreciated (emptying dishwasher, batch cooking, small errands, occasional ironing/using steam iron on a few items would be very welcome). There is a regular house cleaner already.
Minimum 6 months with potential for longer term. Happy to consider all options and offers, and willing to be as flexible as possible to make things work for the right person. Thank you!
