Vancouver, Canada CanadianNanny.ca Full time
We are unsure whether we'll need someone in a few months, or if our current nanny will stay longer than expected, but I'm starting to look just in case. [Please note that we're unable to sponsor foreign workers because we're French, and immigration programs require a Canadian employer.] Hi there We're a French family with a 4 year old boy who needs a nanny while we work full-time at home. We're living on a very remote island, Lasqueti, so we need a nanny who could come live closeby, on the island - we provide a separate cabin near our house (we don't ask for rent). We currently have a wonderful nanny, but she might be going on new adventures next Fall (2024). Living on this island is quite an adventure, it's an off-grid lifestyle. It comes with its challenges but hopefully its life lessons too You can't bring a car here, and the passenger ferry runs twice daily 5/7 days. There are not many services available - a small general store, a post office. You can have your groceries delivered to the ferry. We use solar power, collect filtered rainwater, use firewood for heating. We have outdoor toilets. But on the upside, we live in the woods, ten minutes away from the beach Deer and hummingbirds are our main neighbours. There's a quite active community on the island though, and you can often participate in music events, picnics, art exhibitions, craft fairs, etc. We are quiet, private people who enjoy nature, reading, watching movies, going for a walk… We want our kiddo to grow up surrounded by beautiful trees and to learn to love nature and books. He has a few food allergies and severe eczema which can be bad at times, but he is an adorable, gentle, fun little boy. Since both my partner and I work full time (at home), we need someone to take care of our baby mornings and afternoons, for example 10-12pm. and 2pm-5pm on weekdays (no needs during weekends, lunchtime and nights). This would be flexible though depending on if the little one has a slow start or is sick..., but expect to work around 25 hours a week (up to 30 if you're fine doing yard work too). We look for someone who can be stimulating for our little one: ideally teaching him music, taking him on walks, making him paint, taking him to visit other kids, reading books, singing, playing, teaching him English, but also enjoying quiet moments… There is no daycare, no library, no fixed organized activities on the island so we need someone who can create those opportunities But the house is surrounded by huge woods, there's the beach not too far... and there are a few other kids around the same age on the island. We would like to propose an arrangement where the nanny lives in their own cabin (no rent, you just pay for your own propane) next to the main house. This way you'd have your own private space when not working. The cabin has a nice terrace, a living area with a woodstove, a bedroom, a small washroom with a hot shower. There's a basic outdoor kitchen (sink with cold water, gas stove and fridge) next to another cabin (this second cabin is for guests and can be used as an office if needed, or to invite friends). We provide firewood, wifi... In the main house's basement you have access to the washing machine. We're open to anyone but would prefer having a young couple staying here, because life can be lonely here for a single person, especially in the cold season when it's difficult to bike around, and there aren't many things happening on the island. But if you like calm and nature, and maybe an opportunity to focus on personal creative activities and projects, or remote studies, that might be the right fit for you. In general we're looking for someone who shares our interests and values (antiracism, antisexism, inclusivity, environmentalism...), is self-reliant, and won't be bored by a slow paced island life, nor scared by living conditions that might be a tad more difficult in winter. Someone who won't rely on watching TV and who is really interested in showing little ones all that life and nature have to offer If you play an instrument, that's also a huge plus as our little one loves music We collect half-broken instruments he can play with, like a piano, a violin, an accordion... (and also working instruments suited for his age) Please reach out if you'd like to know more. (Pictured: the nanny's cabin)
