Childcarer

Vacancy: Childcarer
Company: Ski Famille
Category: Ski Childcare Jobs
Dates: December 2010 - April 2011
Salary: Competitive

The Company

Ski Famille is an independently owned specialist in family ski holidays in the French Alps. We are regularly cited by the press as experts in our field and enjoy high levels of return guests and staff.

The Role

Ski Famille nannies are the reason that so many of our guests return year after year. You will be providing stimulating, entertaining and safe activities for children from 3 months to 12 years. Unlike many day nurseries, the children are only there for a week, which means relationships constantly have to be made with new children. We provide training before the season starts on all aspects of working in a ski resort, for example, taking the children to ski school and activities to suit the environment.

The Person

We require our qualified childcarers to have either NVQ Level 3, NNEB, BTEC, RGN, RSCN, or equivalent qualifications. You must also have proven childcare experience and be fully qualified to work with young babies. Our non-qualified childcarers must be able to demonstrate relevant experience and a real commitment to working with children and helping them get the most from their holiday. You must hold a valid First Aid Certificate and we will also conduct CRB checks as well as taking up at least two references.
