In-Home Childcare Provider - Cambridge, MA

Cambridge, MA

Who We Are

Vivvi is not a typical childcare provider! We’re reinventing childcare and early learning for today’s families and creating opportunities for babysitters, nannies, caregivers, and educators to do what they love. Our in-home program helps us meet families where they are, bringing high-quality care and learning right into their homes.

About The Role 

Vivvi is looking for passionate, experienced caregivers to deliver exceptional in-home backup care for one of its clients. While this role may look a bit different from a typical caregiving role, it is an exciting opportunity for someone who is flexible, and loves working with a variety of families! 

This position guarantees 40 hours of pay but functions on an on-call basis, which means you will be paid regardless of if you are booked with a family that day. In this position you will be working with a variety of families on an as needed basis for urgent backup care needs (booked same day) or in advance between the hours of 7am - 6pm, Monday - Friday.

Apply today if you:

  • Have a wealth of professional childcare experience
  • Are comfortable caring for infants and children of all ages in the home environment
  • Are adaptable and will thrive in a role where every day is different
  • See yourself as a learner and researcher alongside children
  • Are committed to health and safety at the highest level
  • Prioritize hands-on activities, imagination, and interaction over screens or technology to deliver a positive experience for the children in your care
  • Have strong technical and organizational abilities (responding to emails, text messages, etc)
  • Are well-versed in child development and caregiving best practices (e.g., safe sleep)
  • Are dynamic and creative in your approach to caring for all types of children
  • Demonstrate exceptional oral and written communication skills

What we offer:

Competitive Compensation and Benefits: Our on-call childcare providers earn $25-$30/hr based on level of education and experience. Employees also receive benefits including health, vision, and dental Insurance, retirement savings, and commuter benefits.

Benefits & Stability: Enjoy the benefits of health coverage, paid time off, and consistency in take-home pay– whether or not you are booked with a family that day

Employee Development & Career Growth: Join a network of caring colleagues committed to your growth and success. Leverage our educational training and expert guidance to strengthen your skills and support your career growth.

To be considered, applicants must be willing to travel to the job's location (a private family home). Candidates must also be legally authorized to work in the US.

Physical demands of this position include but are not limited to sitting and standing for extended periods, bending at the waist, reaching overhead, and frequently moving or lifting children weighing up to 50 pounds unassisted.

We are proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer. We do not discriminate based on race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion or religious creed, mental or physical disability, medical condition, genetic information, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions), sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, marital status, military or veteran status, or other characteristics protected by state or federal law or local ordinance.
