Flexibility will be beneficial as the days/hours might change (on short notice) between 2-3 days a week, 4 - 8hrs a day depending on requirement which is determined by our work schedule. We expect the workload to be quite minimal as you will be supporting another family member with looking after the child. Happy to negotiate a fair pay.
