Dublin 14

After-School Childcare Provider / Nanny (Long-Term)

Location: Mount Merrion
Children: Two school-aged children – one girl (5, turning 6 in August) and one boy (8, turning 9 in January 2027)
Hours: Tuesday to Thursday, 4.00 pm – 7.00 pm

Overview

We are seeking a warm, reliable, and experienced after-school childcare provider or nanny to support a family with two school-aged children on a long-term basis. The role involves school pick-up and after-school care at home and would suit someone looking for consistent, part-time afternoon work.

The family is ideally looking for someone to begin at the start of the new school year (end of August). However, to support a smooth transition, they would like to arrange introductions and some initial sessions in May / June while the school term is still running.

Key Responsibilities

  • Collect children from school at 4.00 pm (school is approximately 2.5 km from home - Clonskeagh)

  • Provide attentive, age-appropriate after-school care at home

  • Support routines such as snacks, homework, play, and wind-down time

  • Maintain a safe, calm, and nurturing environment at all times

  • Follow the family’s guidance and safeguarding expectations

Requirements

  • Experience caring for school-aged children

  • Full driving licence and access to own car (Preferred for school pick-up)

  • Reliable and punctual

  • Availability Tuesday to Thursday during the stated hours

  • Interest in a long-term arrangement

  • German language skills are a benefit but not essential (children are fluent in English & German)

  • Strong safeguarding awareness

  • Relevant references and childcare checks (e.g. DBS), or willingness to obtain them

Additional Context

A parent typically finishes work at 6.00 pm and is usually home by around 6.30 pm, though 7.00 pm provides safe flexibility.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
