We are looking for a nanny to play with our four children, ages 15 months (G), 5 years (B), 6 years (B) and 8 years (B). The older three children are homeschooled, highly independent and don't need much direction or help. It's the 15 month old who needs your supervision!
You will not need to facilitate any home learning during your time, but the 5 year old may ask you to do a reader with him! The boys love playing board games, dress ups, tag, trampolining, drawing, lego, duplo, cubby building, minecraft, NS games like mario cart/sports, cooking/baking, cardboard craft (makedo), making movies, going to the local park (we have three within walking distance), doing puzzles (up to a 500 piece!), soccer, etc. The littlest lady loves to appear to do whatever the boys are doing, cuddling them when they are sad, looking after her baby Dorie, watching and dancing with DannyGo!, reading books upside down, being outside (a big one!), and signing 'more' for delicious food.
I will be home working on my postgraduate studies upstairs and can assist when you need help.
I am looking for one to two day a weeks help, for 4-5 hours. The hours would most likely be 8 - 12, or 9 - 1, give or take. The best day for us would be a Tuesday or Thursday, but we are flexible. We will not need daytime help during the school holidays (husband is a school teacher), but there will be opportunities for late afternoon/evening work for date nights 🙂
You are not expected to do any housework, cleaning, washing or anything like that. It would be helpful if you made sure the boys cleaned up their current mess, before a new mess is made (like pack up the lego, before we get colouring stuff out). The boys are great with this, they just need the reminder. Your hours may fall over morning tea and lunch, if so, the boys can make their own lunch with some assistance and the toddler has a variety of lunch options. You are also most welcome to feed yourself at all mealtimes too.
All the children have no allergies, no diagnosis', they're honestly just lovely kids to be around. I mostly need the help because of the beautiful 15 month old (so that I can study), the boys otherwise can do everything for themselves.
We have a smoke and pet free home.
