P/T Casual Childcare for 15-25 hours per week

Melody's Bio

I am the youngest of four children, I believe that having been the baby of the family and never experiencing being an older sibling has greatly influenced my desire to work with babies, children and to care take in general. I am a caring, generous, loyal individual and I love to organize and clean. I have extensive knowledge taking care of children ranging in ages 3 weeks to 12 years old. My mother works for a non-profit organization that specializes in support of mothers and families during the postpartum time, I began attending the childcare provided for the support groups at the age of eight as a mother's helper. Those sessions helped foster a desire to help and I currently am still an active volunteer childminder with the organization.

I live in the Commercial Drive neighbourhood and enjoy the vibrancy of the east side. I love riding my bike, walking, stretching and being outside as much as possible. I enjoy a primarily plant-based diet but have no qualms about preparing food for others to indulge in. I am a certified yoga teacher, however, I am not currently teaching. I enjoy the world of herbalism, aromatherapy and natural remedies. In the last few months I have made a commitment to myself to explore my creativity, so I have been exploring painting, sewing, embroidery and general crafting.

All in all I am looking for P/T work Mondays and Tuesdays and weekends with the potential to do some evenings as needed. I am open to negotiating days, hours and pay. Looking forward to hearing from you.
