- 2 children (Toddler, Preschool)

We’re looking for a warm, dependable mother’s helper for ~6–10 hrs/week. We have a bright and creative 5-year-old daughter and a chill, fun 20-month-old son. Mom will usually be home, and most often we’d love for you to play, read, craft, build, or do hands-on activities with the kids while Mom works on other tasks. If the kids are having a hard time separating from Mom or if toddler is napping, etc., duties may switch to light help like folding laundry or prepping vegetables. Regular hours are Tuesdays & Thursdays starting at 12 PM. Additional hours may be available when Dad travels. We’re a screen-free home with a cat. $17/hr.
