There are basically two shifts available. Late Mornings/early afternoons and evenings.

The first shift would be from 9 or 10am until around 12:45pm. You would feed the children breakfast and get them ready for school. Then you will use the provided mini-van to drive the children to school. Then just return the van to the home and your shift is over. This shift is necessary Monday through Friday.

The second shift will arrive at the house at 2:00pm and get the mini-van. Then pick up the children from their school and bring them home. Deliver the children to any after school activities (non at this time). I am usually home by 9pm but occasionally I may be running early or late. Sitter should be available until 10 or 11pm if needed. This shift is necessary Monday, Wednesday and Friday. (their mom picks them up from school on Tuesdays and Thursdays and keeps them until I get home.

There is a Saturday Shift available as well. This shift is from 9 or 10am until 9 or 10pm. It can be worked all day by one sitter or split into two shifts if there are two sitters willing to share it.

Sundays are optional. Their mom gets them every other Sunday so this shift would only be necessary every other Sunday.

You can choose between the first shift, second shift and/or Saturday shift. I don't care just as long as all shifts are covered.

Qualified and interested individuals should email me with the following information:

- Resume and work/experience history
- Name, Phone and contact info
- Recent Photograph if possible

Qualified individuals will be called in for an interview. Interviews can take place late in the evening or on Sunday at the Oak Lawn home. I may also be able to interview you in the afternoons at my downtown office if that is more convenient for you. If you are hired, you may start as soon as you can. :)

Good Luck,

Mike

**I have a spare bedroom and I would consider a live in nanny position for the right person. When I get home, the babysitter leaves and I cannot even leave the house to run an errand because I cannot leave the children alone in the house. Just having someone else there will be a big relief. You will be helping me as much as I am helping you. In this case your compensation will be room and board plus a weekly salary. We will come to an agreement on the hours you work and the days and times you want off. This will determine your salary. Right now their mom gets them on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2-8:30 Saturdays from 6-8:30 and every other sunday from 10-8:30 so those are times when your services will not be necessary. If you require another day off or some other time, just let me know and we will work it out. Also, in the next couple months their mom and I will be coming to an agreement which allows them several days overnight at their moms per week, so the workload will be much less then. Qualified individual will be given one nice size bedroom with new queen size bed, a closet, a dresser and a nightstand. Access to a bathroom (shared with the kids), Access to a refrigerator and kitchen (shared with the family). When you cook for the children you may cook enough for yourself as well so food is also provided as long as it is something that the children eat on a regular basis.
