In Home Child Caregiver

At KidzCare Connect, we provide trusted in-home childcare with safe, loving, and connected care for children. We’re seeking a compassionate and responsible In-Home Caregiver to create a nurturing and safe environment for children. This role requires a commitment to excellent care and building positive relationships with children and families.

As a Backup Caregiver, flexibility is key, as jobs may arise the same day or 1-2 business days prior. This role offers dynamic, on-demand opportunities to make a positive impact. We are also working on long-term babysitting opportunities for those looking for more consistent positions and growth potential.

Duties & Responsibilities:

• Supervise and ensure the safety and well-being of children at all times.

• Prepare nutritious meals and snacks, accommodating dietary restrictions or allergies.
• Maintain a clean, organized, and safe environment for children to learn and play.
• Provide first aid as necessary and monitor children's health, reporting any concerns to parents or guardians.
• Before any babysitting, contact parents to introduce yourself and discuss any important details.
• Communicate effectively with parents regarding the child's progress, behavior, and any concerns that may arise.
• Support the overall emotional, physical, and developmental well-being of the child(ren) in your care.

Qualifications:

• Childcare experience is required. If you do not have prior childcare experience, Home Aide Certification or CNA certification will suffice.
• CPR and First Aid certification is highly desirable (or willingness to obtain).
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to multitask effectively in a dynamic environment.
• A caring attitude with a genuine passion for working with children.
