Job Description

A family in Benoni wants someone they can trust with their family home and their children. This role rewards consistency more than flash.

You'll need

  • Willing to follow the family's house rules and routines
  • Neat, organised and able to work without being supervised
  • Able to handle a full-day physical routine

Extra points for

  • A driver's licence for school lifts
  • Basic first aid or child CPR course
  • Cooking experience with family meals

On offer

  • Written contract with fixed hours and duties
  • Paid annual leave and public holidays as the law requires
  • Transport money for live-out staff
  • Own room with bathroom for live-in posts
