Hello, I am Margaret Barry I am a General Manager at a local winery and a single mother. I am a full-time professional and proud parent of two rambunctious and amazing children aged 4- boy, and 6-girl. At this point in my professional career, I greatly need some help keeping up with my active kiddos. I am looking for someone who can do a bit of everything; pickup and take kids to/from school and sports practice, tidying up, meal prep and helping with homework 2-3 days per week from 2-6p.m. (Timing is flexible). My kids wouldn’t be disappointed with a spur-of-the-moment trip to the park or the zoo. My ideal hire loves to work with kids and is happy filling in for me on many parental duties while I’m working. I do travel occasionally for work and will need some overnight care if that is something that works for both of us. About Our Family Nestled in a quiet corner of Newberg, I enjoy the outdoors, wine tasting, sports, music, gardening, and I also like to sit back and relax when I’m not working. On a typical day, I work from 9-5:30 from the winery with the ability to work at home when necessary. The kiddos leave for school (a 10-minute drive away,) around 7:25 am, with activities after school from 3-6p.m. a few days a week. They love to play outside, ride bikes, have dance parties, cook, swim and play at the park. Nanny Job Responsibilities and Duties Creates a safe, caring, nurturing, and stimulating environment in which the children can thrive and develop. Pick-up children from school and transport them to and from afterschool activites. Supervise and complete daily homework, while finding new ways to keep them motivated and excited after homework is completed. Educate the children about proper manners, health and personal care habits, such as exercise, diet, and toilet behavior, and provide assistance as needed. Instill healthy habits in the children balancing fun activities with daily responsibilities. Take charge of chores, tidy living space, vacuuming, unloading/loading dishwasher, light laundry. Food prep and cooking is favorable, but not a deal breaker. Possible overnight care if applicable.
