>If this is not you, no need to read further. The above are requirements for us.
Description of the role: My husband is an entrepreneur and I am a stay at home Mom. We don't have any family around so we could use an extra set of hands. With our kids being so young and close in age plus living in a small town where errands can take a long time, we need an extra set of hands. Our son will be out of school at the end of June and doing a couple of camps. We will also be traveling to Idaho and doing lots of camping and lake days here throughout the summer. There may be some travel to southern California. The job is 5 days a week with 2 consecutive days off. We do want 1 weekend day for you to work so that my husband and I can have time together. Hours are roughly 9-5 but there may be split days where you work 9-12 and then 4-9. In the morning I like to get the kids out of the house to do something fun-swimming, park, play dates, going to the local farm for their morning program where you feed animals and pick vegetables, riding bikes in the neighborhood, doing art projects etc. The evening routine includes feeding them dinner, playing/reading, giving them a bath, washing her bottles/clothes, and getting ready for bed by 7pm.
Benefits for you:
Mom stays at home and is actively involved so you won't be doing this alone
Live in our guest house: Seperate bedroom and bathroom, main area is used as an office during working hours
We are outdoors a lot and love to get out in nature
We live in a serene neighborhood at Sisters Airport where you can watch planes take off and land, you can watch baby quail trailing their parents, eagles, hawks, deer etc . It's incredibly quiet and picturesque with views of the 3 Sisters Mountains from right outside our door.
We are about 1.8 miles to town so you can walk or ride a bike
Pay is DOE, but know we are willing to pay top dollar for the right candidate with 3+ years of childcare experience.
