Childcare

Kusumit from Parklands - Marshlands

Hi there,

I am looking for childcare for my three boys aged 12, 10 and 6 years old after school. They need to be picked up from two different schools, one is Chisnalwood and the other one in Merivale called Elmwood on Aikmans. This person needs to have a full license please. I will pay starting at 2.30pm when you would leave your house to pick the first one. I will need you to stay with them till 5.30pm when I get home from work . This is only at the moment for September starting 3rd September and onto 28th September. I need you Monday-Friday. The pay will be $18/hour. We do have a furry four legged puppy at home too, so it will not suit anyone who is scared or allergic to dogs.

You will need to help with a bit of homework and reading at home with them. Make sure they are changed and their lunch boxes put away and they have a small snack. You will need to know how to cut fruits for snacks:)

Please contact me at the earliest and come and see me and the boys at our home on Bottle lake drive. My phone number is 02722409999.

Thanks heaps,

Kusumit

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

For most of us, seeing a friendly doggo while out and about instantly brings a smile to our faces. But how do you feel about cafes welcoming pups inside?
