Hi guys, just to let you know the position is open again:
Family’s Introduction to Caregivers
We are a young active couple with two kids and two dogs. We are both French / Australian (we have the dual citizenship) and moved from the south west of France to Australia 6 years ago.
We are both sporty and active, love going out, going to the beach and national parks on weekends, four wheel driving, fishing, surfing, dog training, culture, video games, cinema and meeting people.
We live about 12 kms from the Brisbane CBD, the best city in Australia where 4 months of spring follow 8 months of summer! While close to the city, in a top class suburb, and at equal distance to both the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast, our house is beautiful with a unique setting, with the pool overlooking a forest with Koala, Kookaburras and Wallabies. It has a big garden, is also huge and modern and the au pair will have her own private room and bathroom.
Job Description
We are looking for an au pair to be PART OF OUR FAMILY and look after our two lovely kids (1.5 year old boy and 4 years old girl). It is NOT ONLY A JOB… Of course, there are requirements: you need to genuinely love kids, be playful, active and patient. We even already have cleaners, gardeners and someone to look after the pool… however we would like you to help with house duties to an equal amount as we are… not more, not less.
But more importantly we want someone fun, sociable, easy going and eager to SHARE OUR FAMILY LIFE, participate in our sport activities and curious to discover the Australian culture. Of course you will also get your own personal time and will be encouraged to go out and make friends outside of the family. We want someone who shares our values: honesty, respect, curiosity, openness, commitment, and work ethics. We are looking for someone with a good education and mature, not someone who is « just looking for a job, free food and accommodation », we want the right person with the right philosophy of life! We want someone committed to stay at least 6 months to establish a strong relationship.
Working arrangements are flexible. Accommodation and food (top class healthy food cooked with love by the daddy who’s also making his own bread) is provided and « pocket money » will depend on merit and amount of time the au-pair wants to be involved… Money will not be a problem. But you’ll get richer, not only with money, but from the unique experience you’ll get with us. Even if we are French, we are both fluent in English and can teach the au-pair English if necessary and we’ve got lots of Australian friends.
If you recognize yourself in this offer and think you are the right person, you’ll find that this is probably the best au-pair offer you’ll ever find. The position is open starting from now, but there is no urgency, we’ll wait as long as needed to have the right person.
You can get in touch with me by forum email; I’ll then give you my Skype ID. We’ll have a chat about the position, our expectations and your desires and see if we are on the same page! Then we can meet and have a coffee together in Brisbane if you are already in Australia or have a video conference on Skype.
We are looking forward to hearing from you!
