Family and Household Dynamics
A peek behind the front door...
Children's Ages: Care will be for two children ages 5.5 and almost 3 years old.

About the Children:
The oldest child is 5.5 and very social, bright, and active. She never meets a stranger and loves connecting with others. She’s doing well in school, though she is one of the youngest in her class, so transitions can be a bit harder—especially on longer school days later in the week. She responds well to clear boundaries and consistent follow-through when needed. She loves free play, being outside, spending time with friends, coloring, writing stories, and can hyper-focus on activities she’s especially interested in. Over the summer, she’ll be in a few camps but mostly home. Her little brother is almost three and quite different in temperament. He is initially more reserved and slow to warm, especially around new people, but once comfortable he is sweet, silly, social, and very engaging. He is generally easygoing for a 2.5-year-old with short-lived moments of emotional sensitivity. He will be attending school on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:15 to noon this fall.

About the Family:
Dual working parents who both work from home.

About the Pets:
Two sweet pups live in the home. On days when both children are in school, they would love a walk around the block.

Additional Notes:
This family has a great relationship with their current nanny! She has worked for them for 5+ years and most enjoys the infant years. As the children are getting older, the role is transitioning, and she is ready to move on.
Key Responsibilities
A day in the life...

Standard Duties:
The role will mainly focus on childcare in the summer while both children are home. During the school year, family assistant duties will increase when the 3-year-old is in half-day preschool 2 days per week. The family would like help transporting kids to and from school most days. All standard family assistant duties, including meal prep, children’s laundry, family linens, light housekeeping, general tidying up, errands, organizational projects, light pet care, dog walking, specialty projects, managing vendors, planning activities, and making the children's meals.

The ideal candidate will be a highly organized, reliable, and a proactive communicator who values a long-term commitment with a family. They will be warm and creative in coming up with activities for the kids, managing sibling conflict when it arises, and confident implementing age-appropriate behavioral strategies (giving chores or time-out consequences when needed), with toddler and school age children. The family would love someone who enjoys sending photos and sharing highlights as the day unfolds. This person should be able to step in naturally, plan fun outings, and come up with engaging and educational ideas for the summer, making sure the children are active and getting out and about. Their neighborhood offers 2 play grounds within walking distance, hiking trails, and surrounding Castle Rock has MANY kid friendly activities within a short drive. A positive attitude, genuine love of working with children, and the ability to connect with and truly enjoy school-aged kids are essential.
