We have 4 children aged 7 (boy), 5 (boy), and 3 year old twins (boy and girl). The older boys go to school Monday-Friday, and the twins go to kinder on Tuesdays and Fridays. The job would involve preparing breakfast, school and kinder drop offs/pick ups, dinner prep, homework/reading support, bath time, dinner and bed. On the days the twins aren’t at kinder, we would need you to look after them during the day.
