Childcare & Home Support Assistant (Dual Role)

We are a licensed in-home childcare program seeking a dependable, organized, and professional Home Childcare Assistant to support our daily operations. This is a dual-role position designed to align with the natural rhythm of an in-home childcare setting.

Responsibilities shift throughout the day based on children’s schedules. When children are awake, the role focuses on childcare support. During scheduled nap/rest periods, responsibilities transition to household support tasks.

Children are always under active supervision of 1 adult during nap.

This position is ideal for someone who values structure, flexibility, and understands that maintaining a well-run home environment supports high-quality childcare.

“This role is intentionally structured to combine childcare and household support duties within a licensed in-home setting.”

Primary Responsibilities:

Childcare Support:

• Assist with supervision and daily routines.
• Support transitions, activities, and classroom flow.
• Help maintain a calm, safe, and nurturing environment.

Household Support (completed during scheduled nap/rest times 2-3x/week):

• General household cleaning of the personal home (not childcare programming).
• Kitchen cleanup, surface sanitizing, sweeping and mopping.
• Light laundry as needed.
• Tidying and maintaining common household areas.

Important Role Expectations:

• This position includes both childcare and household support responsibilities as a regular part of the role. Applicants should be comfortable with alternating duties based on the daily schedule.
• This is a personal home setting; household tasks support overall operations and are not a substitute for childcare supervision.
• Due to the nature of childcare staffing, reliability and consistent attendance during scheduled work hours are essential.

Requirements:

• Basic English proficiency.
• Background check and fingerprinting required.
• Prior childcare experience is a plus.
• Comfortable working in a home environment.
• Reliable, respectful, and detail-oriented.

Benefits:

• Paid ALL federal holidays (when childcare is closed).
• Two weeks paid vacation.
• Opportunity for raises and performance-based bonuses.
• Paid rest breaks are provided during scheduled nap/rest times, in alignment with the needs of the program.
