About this babysitting job

Looking for occasional care-giving support on various days of the week. At the moment, we really appreciate flexibility with timing due to our work commitments. We’re currently needing support on Monday afternoons, Thursdays and will also share other dates/times on a weekly basis as they change. We had found someone amazing who was caring for our daughter and sadly, they will be leaving in July! What made her incredible was that she was a combination of a mother’s helper and babysitter and attuned to the needs of our daughter and household each week. We’re looking for someone who has empathy, integrity, maturity and a positive outlook on life. The right candidate has a loving, intuitive, creative and sensitive approach to play, feeding and interaction with littles. We appreciate someone who can truly be present around our daughter whether it’s playing together, reading books, singing, dancing, teaching new words, etc. We’re inspired by the Waldorf world of nature connection, no-to-low tech (we do not use screens for our daughter), nature, creative expression like song, dance and visual art. We value kindness, curiosity, growth, well-being and service and hope our values align. Most of the time you’ll be providing 1:1 care for her and while she’s napping, we appreciate the helping hands with things around the home (light clean up, tidying up her toys (Or maybe you can teach her how to pack up together!). During your time with her, provide developmentally appropriate play and activities, help with prepping and feeding meals (we typically pre-make them), running errands (on an as needed basis eg picking an order up at a store), folding laundry, etc). Honestly, what makes our current caregiver so incredible is how much it shows that she cares and really loves what she does - always proactive, always looking for ways to make our home more joyful and easeful. If this is something you’re interested in, please reach out! I’d love to hear from you!
