Welcome Letter to the Au Pair

Hello!
We are a family of 3, mum Jackie 30, Dad Vasilis 30, George Marcus 2.
Together we run our Scuba diving centre, mum and dad are both instructors, so we have our hands full with the little one aswell. Marcus is 2 years old and full of spirit, he is very well behaved, he loves trips to the park, trips to the beach, and hanging out at the dive centre. He is obsessed with footballs and bubbles. He is a bundle of laughs.
We would provide accommodation in a shared household with other who work for the dive centre, this house is only a 5 minute walk away from our house, so your commute to work will be short but with beautiful views. We live in a small mountainous village on the island of Symi, Greece. You accommodation is very close to some small shops and play parks, there is a bus stop 5 minute walk from your accommodation, which runs every hour into the main town of Gialos. We would like for someone to be able to play with and entertain Marcus for a few hours each day, with very little other jobs, only requirement is to serve him meals and take him on trips. Symi is an extremely beautiful and romantic place, it's hard not to fall in love with the island. In your free time there is lots to do, and we could even offer you some diving if you want to try, or if you are already certified. We have trips available for everyone. Our house hold speaks mostly english, but also a bit of greek. (Mum is english, Dad is half english Half Greek). So language exchange is definitely an option.

Job Description

Ideally you would be able to come to our house each morning approximately 8am. Marcus wakes at 7am, so he will be running around, mum and dad have a couple of jobs to do every morning then we would leave for work 8.30am. Marcus will need a simple breakfast, then he loves a walk to the nearest shop (5 minute walk, but 15 minutes with a toddler) or to the park (8-10 minute walk), or even the beach (a longer walk, or bus ride with Marcus in the pram). Then you would bring him home for lunch around 12 and serve it to him. (i provide lunches for the dive centre staff so there is always a meal ready to go in the fridge for yourself and marcus. Then he will need putting down for a nap, we change his nappy and clothes and make him comfortable, read a book and let him go to sleep. He normally sleeps 1.5 - 2 hours each day. During which time most likely either mum or dad will come home and relive you for the rest of the day. You are welcome to eat during meal times at our home and of course any snacks available. while Marcus is sleeping you can relax, i might occasionally ask for help with cleaning up after meals, if you have time. But we do prefer if you pay attention to Marcus while he is awake rather than doing house jobs. Alternatively, if an afternoon is needed instead we are open to being completely flexible, and we would ask if you would be able to be flexible with us also in terms of days and times required. You will always get 2 days off each week.
