Occasionally assist with light housekeeping or meal prep during playtime if needed.
Hours & Schedule:
Regular Days: monday 2:30pm to 5:30pm

Flexibility to adjust to our needs is a plus!
Requirements:
Experience with toddlers or young children and an understanding of developmental milestones.
Ability to engage with our child at their level and encourage self-led play.
