Au Pair/Nanny job description

We are looking for someone to be a third adult in our family. We have a very busy, social home with lots of visitors and activity and with 3 young children we need an extra set of hands! I do not work outside the home so some of the time is spent being a support for me when we attend activities or go shopping and some of the job will also be playing with the children and helping with their basic care needs. We are flexible on parts of the job description - hours of work (both number of hours and when the hours would be). We have a preference for someone who can do some driving (with our vehicle) and would be willing to help with some cooking prep and light housekeeping jobs but these things are negotiable:) We have someone who currently helps with major cleaning.

Family's Message to Au Pairs and Nannies

We are excited to find someone to help our family for the next year (or more). We have had two previous nannies - both who remain very close to our family but have moved on to do their post graduate work. We are an active family and positive people who would love to meet someone who also reflects these qualities. We are really looking forward to welcoming someone who will love our children (easy to do!) and enjoy being a part of our lives.
