We are looking for a great, high-energy, kind soul to help look after our children for 14 hours a week. We have a hilarious 6-year-old and 5 month-old twins (which is crazy and fun all at once!) that will need their Mary Poppins while Mom actually gets a few things done at her part-time job (Studio Manager at a small design firm downtown).

- CPR/First Aid training, or willingness to go to classes if paid by us
- Outstanding personal references
- No smoking, drugs, alcohol
- Dependable
- Kind
- Patient
- Adaptive
- Playful
- Good communicator (there is flexibility with this job if communicated appropriately)
- Stable mood
- A multi-tasker (there are three kids, after all)
- Dependable transportation to/from our house
The Actual "Job Details"
- Playing - play-doh, games, riding bikes outside, baking, reading, etc.

- Taking walks/ adventures to park & library
