We have a family with two daughters - 6 & 14. We need help on three Saturdays per month, from 1200 through to 1800, and on Tuesday & Thursday evenings (1830 - 2130) to help with putting the children to bed. The 14-year-old is pretty self-sufficient, but the 6-year-old needs the most attention. Both children have mild special needs. On Saturdays, you could choose to either mind the 6-year-old at the house or take her to a park or some local event. Both children need help with reading and learning, so being able to incorporate that into your care would be a plus. We would also expect some light housework such as washing up, folding clothes and preparing food to be done when there is spare time.
You will need a current Working With Children Check, a reference from other parents, and, ideally, some formal childcare training. It is really important that you commit to regular care, as we will build our schedule around this. We expect the care to be ongoing through 2025.
