Occasional Baby Sitter And House-Sitting Needed

Denver,  CO  80220 
Occasional (as needed)

Baby-sitting help is needed on specific dates (I can provide them if you are interested in the job) as well occasional house-sitting (feeding cats, bringing in mail, etc. while family is on vacation). Two young children ages 6 and 8 years old. Two cats.

We are a family of four with two young children. Both parents work full time. We live in Northeast Denver and have specific dates from now until December 2009 for which we will need help. Ideally, we would like to select one qualified candidate to do all the dates listed. As you will see, most of the baby-sitting dates are on a Monday or Tuesday afternoon except for one Sunday (that we are flexible on). House-sitting and cat care are listed on various dates as well.

Baby-sitting duties include the following:
On Mondays, pick up children at school, feed them a snack, drive both kids to extracurricular classes. The older child will attend class from 4:00 p.m. to 5:45 p.m. During that time, you must watch and play with the younger child. Drive children back home. Give them a shower. Feed dinner and play with them until parents return home.

On Tuesdays, pick up children at school, feed them a snack, drive and drop off older child at soccer practice. Then drive younger child to soccer practice (different location), stay with her until practice finishes, drive her home, and help her shower.

-Must be honest, kind, hardworking, have initiative, and love children.
-Responsibilities include: picking children up from school, taking them to play dates or other after-school activities, giving them a snack and bath, helping with homework.
-Ideal candidate would be a kindhearted, young woman who genuinely loves children, is able to take direction, and is a responsible and reliable adult.
-Unfortunately our schedules are not that flexible and we really need someone who is reliable and is willing to work.
-We would prefer an experienced college student that lives in east Denver, however these are not requirements.
-We pay $10 an hour. We do check background checks so please have yours ready if interested in the job. Thanks!'
