part-time nanny/recurring sitter @Cleary Family

We are looking for a part-time nanny or recurring sitter who could help our family 3-5 nights a week, Monday through Friday, ideally from 3:30-8:00pm. Some weekend work (typically during the day) would also be helpful. The role is largely a mothers' helper type of role, as mom will typically be home but needs an extra set of hands. We have four daughters, ages 8, 5, 3, and 1. Most nights, mom needs help watching the younger two children while she prepares dinner and helps the oldest with her homework. Playing with the kids and keeping them safe and happy is the main part of the job. Sometimes, we may need help preparing dinner (no real cooking required), and with baths and bedtime. After bedtime, it would be tremendously helpful if the sitter could help fold laundry, clean the kitchen and tidy up play areas if the children left them messy. We are looking to pay around $30-35/hour but this negotiable based on experience. We are hoping to find the right fit for our family. The right candidate would have experience caring for young children and keeping them safe. We would like someone who is engaging and enjoys playing with young kids.
