Part-Time Nanny / Family Assistant - Toronto (Dundas and Ossington) Monday-Friday | 2:00-6:00 PM |

Part-Time Nanny / Family Assistant – Toronto (Dundas and Ossington) Monday–Friday | 2:00–6:00 PM | Approximately 20 hours/week occasional additional hours Compensation: $25-35 per hour for childcare only. $35-40 per hour for cleaning and childcare. Hourly rate based on experience and qualifications. We're looking for a wonderful part-time, live-out nanny/family assistant to join our family long-term. We have three school-aged kids: our daughter (11) and twin boys (8). They're happy, active, curious kids who have a lot to offer (and a lot to say haha). I'm returning to full-time work, and we're hoping to find someone who can become a trusted, reliable part of our family's day-to-day life. A little about the role We're looking for more than a babysitter. Ideally, we'd love someone who can take ownership of the after-school routine, keep the kids engaged and help our household run smoothly. Our perfect person is warm, patient, organized, proactive and fun. Someone who genuinely enjoys children, understands the importance of structure and boundaries, and can balance responsibility with a relaxed, happy environment. Childcare responsibilities: School pickup at 3:20 PM (a five-minute walk from our home). Homework support and encouragement. Planning activities, outdoor time and creative play, with limited screen time. Coordinating playdates and helping manage the kids' social schedules. Getting the kids to appointments and extracurricular activities when needed. Example: One kid has guitar which is a 10 minute walk from the house. He practices for 15 minutes daily after school. Another kid goes to art class a 10 minute walk from the house. She can ride there and home herself. Preparing healthy snacks and simple meals. Example: Prepping the kids lunches and bags for the next day. Family meal prep is appreciated but not neccessary. Helping the kids develop independence, responsibility and good routines. Providing a caring, positive and supportive environment. Household support: We will have a professional cleaner coming in, so we're not looking for someone to do heavy cleaning unless that is of interest to you for extra hours (hourly pay increases for this). However, we'd love some help with the everyday tasks that keep a busy family organized. This would include: General tidying, light vacuuming and keeping common areas organized. Kids' laundry (washing, folding and putting away). Simple tidy of kids rooms. Meal preparation and basic kitchen cleanup. Putting away groceries and organizing kids' belongings. Helping manage children's schedules, appointments and activities. Childcare will always take priority, but we'd love someone who can use the quieter hours before school pickup to help with household tasks. There isn't a checklist that needs to be completed each day, we are flexible and understand that there is only so much that can be done prior to pick up. Schedule & location Monday–Friday, approximately 2:00–6:00 PM. More hours can be arranged if wanted. Approximately 20 hours per week. Occasional additional hours for evening babysitting, appointments or schedule changes, arranged in advance. This is always optional and not you are not required to provide unlimited flexibility for the role. Located near Dundas and Ossington in downtown Toronto. Long-term position preferred. Who we're looking for Previous experience caring for multiple school-aged children. Responsible, reliable, patient and genuinely engaged with kids. Organized, independent and comfortable taking initiative. Comfortable managing three children's schedules and activities. Able to help with homework and encourage learning. Comfortable with cats (we have one very friendly, very lazy cat). Legally eligible to work in Canada; no sponsorship available. Bonus points for: ECE, teaching, education or child development experience. A university or college degree. Previous long-term placement with a family. Living close to Trinity Bellwoods or within the downtown Toronto area. Experience as a family assistant or household manager. A little about us We're a friendly, busy family who value kindness, honesty, communication and a good sense of humour. We want our home to be a relaxed, comfortable and happy place for everyone, including the person working with us. We're looking for someone who will become a genuine partner in the kids' care and development, someone we can trust to make good decisions, take initiative and help our children thrive. In return, we offer a respectful, welcoming working environment, open communication and a family who will genuinely appreciate everything you contribute. If this sounds like a good fit, we'd love to hear from you! (Part-Time, Live-Out) For day, evening
