About The Position

Do you love working with kids and making a difference in their lives? We’re looking for reliable, caring, and energetic Respite care nannies to join our team! This is a wonderful opportunity to gain hands-on childcare experience while enjoying a flexible schedule that works for you. You focus on creating meaningful connections and fun experiences with children. We provide the support of a caring team and amazing opportunities to make a difference. When you’re a child’s caregiver, you’re not just supervising, you’re inspiring them with the very best of you. You’ll get to: Be a Role Model – Change a mood with a smile. Bring calm to chaos. Show children how it’s done. Be Playful – You get to be a kid again while enjoying games, crafts, and adventures alongside them. Be Helpful – Many parents are stretched thin balancing work, family, and responsibilities. You’ll help lift that load. Be Adventurous – Rediscover the world through a child’s eyes while encouraging curiosity and joy. Be in Charge – Manage safety, provide structure, and create fulfilling days that make a lasting impact.
