I've provided an outline all of the practical details of the job first.
Beneath that there is an ‘A little bit about us’ followed by the details of who we're looking for!

Job details:

Shift type: Before School Care, assistance with morning routine and getting ready for school, followed by school drop off.
Number of children: You’d be caring for our gorgeous and delightful 6 year old boy.

We’d have one short meet and greet before that, and then ideally Monday 23/2/26 one practice shift (paid) with me there the whole time, including coming with me to drop off and to introduce you to his foundation teacher so she knows who you are.

A little bit about us:

Our little boy is a confident, kind, happy 6 year old who loves animals, trains, understanding his world and learning to be independent.
He is curious, asks lots of questions, hearing the answers, learning new things, telling you about them and loves mastering new tasks.
He understands himself well and is very good at advocating for himself, and he knows that we will listen to him and believe him. He loves music and singing to music.
He loves school and his friends at school.

We need this help as we both need to leave for work early however we are pretty engaged parents, with a lot of family support close by as well, and we’ll ensure that you are well supported and have everything you need to do this caregiving role well!

Our brand of parenting is one driven by best practice, data, reliable resources (raising children network, RCH guidelines, advice from GPs and other paediatric resources), principals that support children’s emotional wellbeing and the fundamental respect for a child’s space to grow, explore who they are, play, be silly, funny and cheeky and learn about their world!

We’re looking for someone who:
-has pro-social skills (Empathy, respect, kindness and gratitude) and because of these generally has positive interactions with others (a wordy way of saying you’re just generally a nice person!)
-understands and values being on the same side of children, and building a positive narrative around them.
-has a strong understanding and respect for the importance of body safe rules, child safe rules and safe adult rules.
-understands the importance of finding and giving them small opportunities frequently to succeed at things and celebrating these and them.
-genuinely sees children as equal, worthy and important individuals with autonomy and agency.
-ideally, has experience working with 6 year olds, and thus an approximate understanding of where a 6 year old is at developmentally and patience for what they can and cannot do.

We are looking for someone to join our family full time (Monday to Friday - 7.30am to 5.30pm). We welcomed our twins in late October and have an almost 4 year old who goes to childcare full time.

Start date March/April depending on availability.

We would be looking for someone who will be part of our family and:
- Has experience looking after twins or multiple children (6 month +)
- Understands key development milestones and supports children with appropriate activities to achieve them
- Is a well rounded caregiver and loves what they do
- Is reliable (mum travels for work and we will need someone whom the family can depend on as we don't have any family nearby)

Duties:
- Sole focus on the twins
- Feeding, playing, development activities, putting to bed, bathing etc
- Folding babies laundry and doing their washing if its required
- Keeping the house tidy - putting away baby toys, clothing etc at the end of the day when they are finished for the day, emptying dishwasher if used. Cleaner comes fortnightly.
