We are hoping to find someone interested in a long-term rotational lifestyle, typically involving **5–7 weeks of work followed by 5–7 weeks off**. This position is ideal for someone who enjoys children, nature, simple living, and being meaningfully involved in a family’s daily rhythm. We are not able to offer sponsorship for a work permit, LMIA, or visa process.

Our son is curious, active, affectionate, and bright. He loves being outside, play sports, painting, drawing, helping around the house, reading books, listening to music, playing with educational toys, and learning through real-life activities. He currently speaks mostly English and French. He was exposed to Spanish from a young age, and we are trying to keep this language active for him. We are looking for someone who wants to be truly involved in his daily life, development, education, routines, and learning. This is not only a supervision role. We want someone who is ready to invest in him, support his growth, and become a trusted presence in his life. Our son will likely be homeschooled in the future, so it's important to us this is taken into consideration. Our parenting style is warm, consistent, and focused on learning, autonomy, positive reinforcement, and curiosity. It is inspired by Montessori in many ways. We encourage him to participate in everyday tasks such as clearing his plate, helping with dishes, laundry, cooking, tidying up, and simple household routines. We believe this helps build confidence, independence, responsibility, and practical life skills. Screen time is limited and intentional. His iPad is mainly used for educational activities, always with supervision. Schefferville is a small and remote northern community located in the same area as the Innu and the Naskapi community.
