Job description

Care in our home for one young toddler (14 months) starting December 2, 2026, with a flexible start date and schedule. We are seeking someone who can come in some times during the week to care for our little one. I mostly work from home so can be flexible but there are some office days (mostly Tuesdays) where we would need a full day. We are hoping to find someone who aligns with our values as it relates to co-regulation and comforting. We can have meals and snacks ready. You’d be responsible for making sure meals, snacks and naps are given as needed. Otherwise, would just like someone to supervise and play with our toddler, maybe can work in some age appropriate developmental activities.
