Mother's Helper

N Tree Farm near N Sugar Tree, Meridian ID

Description

We’re a professional married couple with a 3 year old daughter. We have demanding schedules, so we bounce from work, to childcare, to household chores, and back to work again. We need more time for ourselves and we think a Mother’s Helper can make that happen. The mothers helper will assist with light household chores and caregiving to our daughter. This job will start at about 4 hours twice a week (~8 hrs/week), and involve an evening of babysitting once every week or two weeks (4-5 hours). These hours will likely expand as our family expands. Occasionally we would also be looking for short term, live-in care if we go away for a weekend or something. Ideally the helper would arrive in the morning around 9 to do a couple hours of chores and then pick up our daughter from daycare in the evening for another couple hours of work as a caregiver. The responsibilities will include: Picking up our daughter from daycare at 5pm and providing childcare until 6-7 pm twice a week. (We will often be at home at this time, too) Laundry Tidying/organizing (We have a cleaning lady once a week, so deep cleaning not necessary) Grocery/general shopping Taking out trash/Glass Recycling runs Scheduled car maintenance appointments Drop off dog for grooming appointments The ideal candidate is: Someone who has professional childcare experience with references Talented with children with excellent judgement 100% reliable Looking for a long term engagement Comfortable with a very large, fluffy (and a little drooly) dog.
