Welcome Letter to the Au Pair

Hello!

Our home is located in a forested 4-acre plot of land, on a fairly remote island. It is a popular tourist destination for Canadians in the summertime especially. It is very beautiful here, with lots of wild areas, forests, trails, and beaches. We are hoping to find someone who will be happy with a more slow-paced lifestyle, exploring the local wild areas.

We live about a 15-minute drive from our closest town center. It is about 1 hour, including a short ferry ride, to get to the closest small city by car. We generally only go into the city every few weeks, if you want to go more often, we can drop you off at the ferry and you can take a bus in. There is a small bus on the island as well but doesn't run every day.

Job Description

We are looking for someone to care for our 5-year-old son Oak and 18 month old daughter Beatrix. Oak is a very active and very happy child. We hope that the au-pair would enjoy spending time outside as that is where he likes to spend most of his time.

We are seeking someone who is mindful of maintaining a healthy environment and is willing to take precautions to protect against COVID-19 and other viruses. This is especially important as we have an immunocompromised family member. These measures include wearing masks in indoor spaces when appropriate.

We only expect the au-pair to work 4 half days a week (4-5 hours at a time), and an occasional evening babysitter (a few times a month). Most time would be spent playing with Oak and caring for Beatrix, but some light housekeeping-related duties would be appreciated.

We require the au-pair to be fully vaccinated against the Covid-19 virus and they must be willing to wear a mask indoors at public places.

Accommodation

We have a small cabin for the au pair to stay in separate from the main house (but just a few meters away).
It is small but fully equipped with a queen-size bed, fridge, table, heating, electricity, a bathroom, and a small kitchenette. You would be welcome to do some cooking on your own or to eat with us.
