I am a midwife and work 2-3 x 12.5 hour shifts (mixture of days and nights) per week. My husband is an engineer and works long days and occasionally weekends as well.
We are looking for someone who can be flexible and change days/requirements on a weekly basis. A minimum of 4 weeks notice would be given for our work schedules and days required. Hours would likely be 7-9am (including school/nursery drop off) then 3-8.30pm latest including pick up.
Our children will attend school and nursery very close to our house, so a car may not be required although it might be easier.
An example of my off duty can be provided on request, but an average week may look like:
1-2 x morning and school pickup through to evening, plus an additional morning or pickup. This would be planned at least 4 weeks in advance.
