Job Details
Join us and we'll back you on your mission to spread your love and make the world a better place. Parents are stressed with everything, everywhere all at once with work and kids who may be home while on a daycare waitlist, or because of school breaks or their permanent nanny is out. Depending on your availability, you'll step in for a few hours or days to be a helpful and appreciated caregiver overseeing children's age-appropriate activities.
While you won't be jumping multiverses, you'll be placed temporarily with several of our client families and experience a variety of cultures and personalities. Take advantage of this opportunity to fine-tune and adapt your trust-building skills with different kids. The kids might just love you because you're a new face and you can just be yourself! And if there's a good personal connection, you may become someone's favorite and be requested over and over again.
We'll help you manage your schedule if it becomes too much. Or we'll let you work as much as you want. If you pay attention to our client families' needs, be on time, follow parent instructions, and be helpful and friendly, you then could have first pick of permanent part-time positions as they come up.
Your good work may also gain you new personal or professional resources - helpful if you plan on building your network or career! Have fun with kids, build lasting relationships, keep families safe and productive, and be confident knowing you've accomplished something by making a big difference in young children's lives.
If you've been a babysitter, then you can work for us! Any experience you have related to children (daycare, camp counselor, youth group or nursery leader, lifeguard) is valuable! But, parents want to be assured that you have experience so give us your references, and let us know what others say about your work with kids!
After phone screen and references called, the first interview is virtual. Onboarding orientation is in-person.
Flexible scheduling: Choose several weekdays that work for you. Most assignments are during parents' daytime working hours.
