Family's Message to Au Pairs and Nannies

We are a busy family that love living in the tropical environment of Darwin. As both parents work fulltime (with dad away for work a lot!) we are looking for someone to be a constant in the daily life of our two young children. We ask the chores as described in the Job description, and there is a car available. The girls love the pool, the park and lots of playdates/parties, and generally being active and busy. They love to make things, draw/paint, and cook..ey are very busy! We have pets, who also are a major part of our family. They are all very friendly. Work for the parents is fulltime, and can sometimes be required to do overtime. We need someone here who is a constant. There is a lot to do and see here in the Top End, and the weather over the Dry Season is just magical. When work calls, we will need you to be here for the kids. As both girls are at school full time, you will have each day during school hours and the weekends free for you to look around. We are a very easygoing family, but very family orientated, wanting to bring someone reliable, friendly and honest into our family as new family member.
