Sitter Job in Wappingers Falls, New York

Overview: Hi my name is Sharifa. I am hiring a committed caregiver to look after my 7 year old son 2 afternoons and evenings per week (Wednesday and Thursday) with possible additional days. Service Requirements: This position would require that you transport my son from school to our home, get him situated at home with snacks and then prep dinner and get him ready for bed. The hours would be Tuesday from 4:30p- 6:30ish pm and Thursday from 4:30pm to 9:30ish. Depending on my schedule there will be additional hours. I also need someone who could be available for back-up care if he is a sick on a day when I have to commute to work. I'm looking for someone who is experienced, responsible, and creative. We are a family who do not rely on television and screens to entertain us, so this is a position for someone who can get involved with my child's passions for reading, art-making, music, soccer and enjoying the outdoors. As a single mother I have hired many people to help care for my son while I work. I don't see you as "hired help" but as an important figure in my child's development. I base our working relationship on respect and honor the sacred trust of your role as a caregiver. Notes On Availability: This position requires someone willing to commit for the rest of my teaching semester (from now to late April or early May) after successfully completing a 2 week trial period. Must be available to start working Wednesday Feb 23. Candidates will be interviewed by phone and references checked before being invited to meet in person.
