Childminder Needed for Our Child in Belfast BT9 starting from April 2025

Every 2nd Saturday we may require additional support from 7.30am to 3pm - TBD. Flexibility would be appreciated (with agreed notice from our side), as we work out the best schedule for our needs when the child is born. I may be starting the search too early :), but would like to have the key things organised ahead of the busy period with the newborn. If things work out well, we may be looking for occasional overnight Friday-Monday support down the line. Ideally, looking for a lady of 50+ years of age.

Childcare support needed with school drop off/pick up in Coventry (Stivichall/Cheylesmore area)

by Claire • Coventry
Hi! We are looking for someone to support us with helping to get our daughter ready in the morning and dropping to school, then picking up from school again. After school depending on what my daughter wants to do, it may be bringing straight home or taking them or soft play or playing outside. If you would be open to home help tasks, that might be occasionally requested too. . This might suit someone who has flexible working patterns or part time work and is looking for a bit extra. At the moment the main day needed is Wednesdays. However due to a new job in a couple of months this may change or increase when more is known. If you are able to support with occasional ad-hoc days only, or only morning or only afternoon but not both, please contact me too as it would be good to have options. Your own transport is needed and if you have experience of children with additional needs (learning disability) it would be a bonus. The most important things are if you are patient, friendly, understanding, reliable and like playing. Thank you for reading.

FAQs for finding childcare jobs

What is the pay rate for a childcare job in 2025?

As of January 2025, the average childcare job posted on Care.com pays £13.00 per hour at a national level. This rate may vary depending on where you live, how many kids you need to care for, what your previous childcare experience is, any specialised training or certifications you have, and how many hours you will need to work per day or per week.

How can I find a childcare job?

You can filter open positions for all childcare jobs available in your area and compare them by hourly rate, whether the position is part-time or full-time, how many kids you will need to care for and what the ages of the kids are. You then need to create a profile on Care.com that lists the childcare experience you have and what your desired childcare job entails. Besides applying to open jobs, the families can also contact you directly about their needs.

How do I prepare for a childcare job interview?

To help stand out from the other childcare providers a family is interviewing, make sure you have thoroughly reviewed the job description so you can speak directly to the family's needs and anticipate questions they may have. You should arrive a little early and bring extra copies of your resume and the certifications you've earned. Expect the family to ask detailed questions about how you will act in specific situations you will find yourself in while caring for their children. Don't be shy about asking for clarification if you don't understand a question or have questions for the family. It's just as important that you're comfortable working for the family as they are having you work for them.
