Full-Time Family Assistant in the South Park Area for Two Children Ages 3 and 6 Years Old
Charlotte’s Best Nanny Agency is assisting a family in the South Park area of Charlotte, NC, in finding a Full-Time Family Assistant for their two children, ages 6 and 3 years old. The Family Assistant would typically be needed Monday - Friday, 11:00 am - 5:00 pm (the family is flexible on hours, and can provide more hours a week if needed). There may also be an occasional need for babysitting on Saturday nights.
The best Family Assistant for this family would be kind, patient, and confident in caring for children, providing warmth and consistency. The Family Assistant should be engaging, safety-minded, and genuinely enjoy staying active and involved in the children’s daily routines.
Responsibilities include coming in and taking care of household management tasks, then doing school pick-ups (6-year-old at 2:50 PM and 3-year-old shortly after), preparing snacks, supervising playtime, assisting with baths, and helping the children get ready for the next day. The family values a Family Assistant who will keep the kids active, including outdoor play on their backyard playground, neighborhood playdates, crafts, coloring, and activity kits. Screen time is minimal in the home, and the children are encouraged to stay active and engaged instead of watching TV.
The family’s 3-year-old has well-managed epilepsy and takes daily medication to manage it. With parent permission, the Family Assistant may occasionally administer prescribed medication to the children. Comfort following clear medical instructions is important.
This is a wonderful opportunity for a nurturing professional who wants to build a strong connection with a family while supporting an organized, active home environment.
