Weekend Extra Job for You – No Need to Be Told What to Do

We are looking for someone who wants to work part-time as a personal assistant for an 8-year-old boy in Östhammar. This is not a job where you just sit and wait for time to pass. We are looking for you who come up with ideas for activities yourself, see opportunities instead of obstacles, and enjoy taking the initiative. You need to be secure, responsible, and have the ability to create a fun and meaningful day based on the person in front of you.

Experience with children is a big plus. Having worked closely with families, in preschools, schools, leisure activities, or similar is advantageous, but personality weighs heavier than a specific CV. We believe you are someone who enjoys being outdoors, coming up with things to do, engaging yourself, and seeing the relationship as the most important part of the job. The work covers weekends and public holidays, during the day and evening, as needed. The position requires a car and a driver's license.
