• Engage in friendly conversation and age-appropriate activities like board games or talking about the school day.
• Maintain a tidy and organized environment in the common areas used during your time.
• Act as a reliable point of contact and ensure all household safety rules are followed.

Desired Skills

• Exceptional punctuality and a proven track record of being reliable.
• A mature and responsible demeanor with excellent judgment.
• Good conversational and interpersonal skills; able to connect with a pre-teen.
• A friendly, positive, and approachable attitude.
• The ability to work independently and respect a family’s privacy and household rules.

Preferred Qualification

• Must have a High School Diploma or GED.
• Currently enrolled in or a graduate of a college or university is a strong plus.
• Must be willing to undergo and pass a comprehensive background check.
• Character references are required (e.g., from teachers, professors, or previous non-childcare employers).
• No professional childcare experience is necessary; we will provide all necessary guidance.

Benefits

• A perfect opportunity to build your resume and gain valuable, professional childcare experience.
• A competitive hourly wage in a stable, long-term part-time position.
• A safe, respectful, and low-stress working environment.
• A consistent schedule that is ideal for balancing with studies or other pursuits.
