Position Summary/Job Duties:

We are a loving, busy family looking for a reliable, kind, and energetic caregiver for our three children aged 10, 8, and 6. We live 10 minutes from downtown Madison. Our daughter, who is 6 years old, is developmentally delayed due to a seizure disorder and requires her speech tablet, re-directing, changing, and extra care. All of the kids are energetic, love being outside, and enjoy time with their caregivers. Our daughter will attend summer school until 11:30, so she will need transportation home from school and care following (she loves swimming and the trampoline!). The boys have several activities around our neighborhood, so they will mostly need help getting to and from their activities, meals, etc. We live within walking distance to a pool, parks, and tennis courts to keep us all active during Madison's beautiful summers.

Qualifications:

Teaching, previous childcare, or special needs experience is a plus.
