Nanny Job in Gabriola, British Columbia

I'm an
Individual
Hi, we are a young professional family (We have a 4 yr old boy and a 3 yr old girl) with a rural 5-acre gulf island farm. We both work in the emergency field (Will is the Fire Chief of the local fire department) and (Jenn is a paramedic, firefighter, and photographer on the island) we love farming, love the water, and love this island. We are searching for a live in Nanny to join our family (Aprox 6months to a year starting immediately). The ideal candidate would be some one who is easy going, goes with the flow, and works hard. Our schedules are a little crazy at times so our Nanny would need to be flexible. A drivers license would be very helpful as well. Work hours: 3 days on 3 days off, 9 hour days plus 16 hours on call at night time on those days. Wage: All living expenses paid plus a wage. Duties: Playing/looking after the children, light housekeeping, cooking meals, pick up and drop off from school/events. We have hosted workaways and WWOOFers for over 8 years, and we will have farm helpers stay with us as well. We love hosting people from different cultures and areas of the world and incorporating them into our family. At times our home can be a very busy place. Gabriola is surrounded by beaches and is one of the most breathtaking places on earth with an amazing farming community. On our farm we grow lots of different vegetables and fruits in our 20,000 square foot gardens. Some of these include carrots, lettuce, chard, kale, beets, herbs, peas, corn, squash, zucchini, cucumbers, tomatoes, celery, and garlic. Our garlic crop is our commercial crop and we plant around 12,000 a year. In our orchard we grow four different apple trees, a plum tree, two pare trees, five fig trees, 4 hazelnut trees, and two walnut trees. In all our gardens we use sustainable and organic practices and no pesticides or herbicides. We also rise laying hens as well as meat birds with our current count at 40 4 roosters. We sell our eggs at the local farmers market and at a roadside stand. We also feed our hens non-GMO feeds and lots of fresh fruits and veggies. In addition to our gardens we have an equine retirement horse boarding facility currently housing 4 horses. We also have a small herd of Icelandic sheep! If staying on a farm and helping care for two adorable sweet kids sounds like a great fit for you please msg us!
