Description
I am a single Mom of two wild and wonderful boys, ages 9 and 11. We live in a great neighborhood in Montreal, Quebec close to the mountain, the mile end, the plateau and with easy access to the rest of the city. My work is taking me out of the city a few days a week from April to June (possibly July and August) and I am looking for some help with kids while I’m gone. Cooking, helping with homework and taking them to and from school will be necessary a couple of times a week, as well as to after school activities a few days a week. Days would be mostly free and every other weekend and Thursdays they are with their dad. This is an intensive “on” responsible position with loads of time off as well. Our house is warm and wonderful with a great backyard and lots of space.
We are looking for someone super energetic and vivacious, ideally who likes to play sports and is interested in more intellectual conversations (one of my kids loves business, politics, math and the other one is super sporty). Extra work is available in organization if wanted. Being a good cook and doing some cleaning would be ideal!
Both kids go to school in French so someone who is fluent in French and or English would be best but we are open to other options.
Loving kids and play is of the utmost importance. Being able to drive is also a bonus!
Please be in touch. We would ideally love to find someone immediately.
Thanks so much,.
