We are a family of three seeking a warm and caring part-time nanny for our energetic and curious 10.5-month-old daughter. The position would begin in mid-March, when she will be 11.5 months old. It would be 3 days a week—ideally Tuesday, Thursday, and one other weekday, but we can be flexible. It would be 4 or 4.5 hours a day, approximately 8:30/9 am to 1/1:30 pm, again with some flexibility. We live in a house with a backyard in west Coquitlam, close to the IKEA. We have a 2.5-year-old Labrador retriever who has the run of the house, so experience with and/or comfort with dogs is essential. As far as education, experience, and other requirements go, we’d like the following: -- Excellent communicator -- Willing to engage in active, energetic play -- Responsive, gentle caring approach -- Vaccinated and fully boosted for COVID -- Current infant/child first aid and CPR certificate -- A criminal record check -- Two references -- Non-smoker ECE training and a driver’s license would be an asset. Our pay range is $20+/hour, depending on experience and credentials. Your duties would be as follows: -- Active play with baby -- Facilitate morning nap -- Serve lunch, including simple meal prep and cleanup -- Tidy baby mess. Additional information: -- At least one parent and sometimes both parents will be at home working, but we will stay out of your way. When I am at home, I will breastfeed at least once. -- Our baby will need support napping (rocking/holding in arms) before transferring to crib. -- No housework is required beyond cleaning up after the baby, and no pet care is required. If this sounds like it would be a good fit for you, please get in touch. I'm currently reviewing expressions of interest/resumes and will begin contacting candidates the week of February 13. Thanks for your time, and looking forward to hearing from you!
