Family First is happy to assist a family of three located in the Plaza Midwood area of Charlotte, North Carolina, in finding a loving, creative, and experienced Family Assistant for their active 3.5 year old son. They do have a poodle and a cat, so pet lovers are a must. 

This position starts June 26th, 2023. Care is needed from 9am-6pm (or 8:30am-5:30pm) Monday through Friday, guaranteeing 40 hours a week, with an occasional date night every month. They are offering $25-$27 an hour for a family assistant who is a strong communicator, empathetic, and willing to be a close companion, role model for their son. A nanny who is supportive, educationally minded, and values child-led play would be a great fit. They would like their Family Assistant to take their child on various outings, adventures, and play dates. Someone who is warm and encouraging, and can make sure their son is happy and well adjusted would be amazing. They want their child to feel enriched, loved, and engaged when they are not around. 

Their son starts off shy, and can take a few minutes to warm up to a new person or environment. He loves to swim, play soccer, and play superheroes and villains. He is bilingual, so a nanny who speaks Spanish would be amazing, but this is not a requirement. As a family, they enjoy traveling, getting outside, and spending time together reading. Their community and the people they surround themselves with is very important to them. 

Their child goes to preschool 5 days a week from 8:30-12pm. During this time, they would like Family Assistant tasks to be completed, such as laundry, dog walking, errand running, meal prepping, and other standard Family Assistant tasks. They are truly looking for another care provider to join their team and eventually become a member of their family. 

If you are a warm, experienced, engaging, and hands-on family assistant, we would love for you to apply!
