The childcare side of the job can include mealtimes, keeping up the daily routines of the child, helping with homework, school runs and most importantly keeping children safe at all times. The activity side includes delivering creative and/or language learning activities previously planned according to the child’s age and abilities, including adapting to the child’s response and making sure to fulfil the family’s requests that have been previously agreed upon.
