Part Time Regular Babysitter For Our Two Year Old Daughter - Look...
$23 – $27/hr • Part time • Starts Aug 12 • New York, NY
Looking for a part-time, regular babysitter for our 2. 5-year-old daughter. Sloane is very verbal, has a large vocabulary and is oftendescribed as being mature for her age. She's generally very chill, happy and sweet.
Responsibilities include:
- playing with Sloane
- going to the playground or library
- light snack/meal prep (assembling lunch, bringing snacks)
- getting ready for naptime or bedtime
- school pickup
- light housework (folding laundry, putting toys away, unloading the dishwasher)
We're hoping to find someone who genuinely enjoys being with children and someone who has a similar approach with childcare. For example, we like the RIE method, gentle parenting and we don't do screen time.
Ideally, we want someone who will be with our family long term (our current babysitter has been with our family almost S entire life. We're only looking to replace her because she's moving away).
Currently, we live in the East Village but we're looking to move to UES in the next six months. Additionally, we're hoping to get pregnant again soon, in which case we would want to increase hours.
Hoping to kick off in August while our current sitter phases out. Hours are flexible, we can discuss!
In your response, please include a note about how you would describe your caregiving style.
Thank you!
Important values include thoughtfulness, kindness, presence and common sense.
S absolutely loves reading books together. We prioritize time outside at a park or playground. Additionally, we create space for self directed play in which S takes the lead with playing. She loves helping with cooking.
We're looking for someone who genuinely enjoys being with kids. S seems to do best with calm/grounded personalities. Additionally, striking a balance of being kind while setting boundaries is important. We want someone who is willing to follow our parenting style and incorporate derin language. ... more
