Au Pair job description

We are looking for someone who will be patient, caring and creative with the children and help them to discover the world around them at their own pace as well as talking to them lots and helping to nurture their developing language skills. We would like someone who can work with us Monday to Friday and your weekends would be totally free. We would like for our au pair to be able to carry out light housework duties, we do ask that you are happy to muck in and do the boring stuff as well as help with the children, which is the fun stuff! Mostly I need help with keeping the kitchen tidy, washing & ironing. We want you to enjoy your time with our family and help us (me) to do my job as a mum. In return we will treat you as a member of the family, should you decide to come and live with us.

Family's Message to Au Pairs

We live in Jersey, Channel Islands with our 3 children; Megan who is 6, Ella is 4 years and Samuel is 2. Jersey is an English speaking island off the coast of north France. It is a fairly small island with a population of about 87,000. It has beautiful countryside and wonderful quiet beaches. We live in a village called St John in the countryside but are only 4 miles from the capital St Helier. All the facilities you might need are available either in St John or in St Helier. In your room there is a lovely double bedroom with your own bathroom. If you would like to know more about the areas that we live in, you can try the following websites: , . We’re a laid-back and happy family. I work for an Investment Bank as a Senior HR Advisor and Richard works in accounts. Megan & Ella go to school 5 days a week from 8.45am to 3pm & Samuel attends a nursery 3 mornings per week. All 3 of them love the outdoors and we like to give them freedom to explore the world as much as possible. This effectively means that we mainly hang out in the garden at home or sometimes go out on day trips to just about anywhere; beaches, country parks, adventure parks, activity farms, seaside towns, forest walks… you name it. All of them are very happy children and a pleasure to be around. Obviously we’re biased but we’re not the only ones to say that, honest! They are quite independent and don’t want or need to be followed around all day, but they are also very young and so they do require me to be available to them whenever they do need me. We would require you to be able to drive as you would need to be able to collect & take the children to school & nursery.
