I’m mainly looking for someone who could be available during the daytime in case of an emergency at the creche. It would be very occasional and flexible, rather than regular childcare.
Speaking French would be a lovely bonus, but it’s absolutely not essential.
I’d be very happy to meet you at the park first and have a chat before arranging anything.
If you’re interested, please send me a little bit about yourself and your availability.
