Job Summary
I am looking for a responsible and nurturing nanny/sitter to stay with my 6 year old daughter overnight while I am at work. I am a nurse and typically work 12 hours so the shifts would be from 7pm until my daughter is dropped off to school between 7-8am, at which point the sitter is free to go. Come summer time, my return would be approximately 9am. This is mainly meant to be a sleep shift once my daughter has been put to bed (between 8pm-9pm), with the expectation that the nanny will be able to wake and respond as needed (for example daughter waking from nightmares, excessive coughing requiring dose from puffer, or whatever it may be etc).
