Job Duties
All work is done with awake double staffing and employment begins with thorough training and orientation. Therefore, no prior knowledge or previous care experience is required.
Here you are offered meaningful, awake night work as a personal assistant with focus on supervision and care of a 2-year-old boy in his home. The boy was born with a weakened airway and therefore breathes through a small plastic tube in his throat (called a trach). Otherwise, he is a happy and completely healthy little boy. During the night, your main responsibility is to watch over him while he sleeps to ensure he sleeps safely. This means you monitor the trach and ensure that the plastic tube is kept clean using a convenient steam machine and a small medical "vacuum."
In addition to supervision, you will also handle simple practical tasks, such as inventorying materials in the storage room, ensuring the boy's clothes are in order, and cleaning pacifiers for the coming day. The boy usually sleeps through the entire night, which means night shifts are typically characterized by calm and quiet – while your presence and attention are always important.
The family consists of the boy, his mom and dad, and the family's dog. They live in a large newly renovated villa with good bus connections and excellent conditions for a pleasant work environment.
Working hours are 21:00–07:00 and shifts may occur on both weekdays and weekends.

As a person, you are calm, empathetic, and responsible. You have a good ability to be present and attentive even in calm and quiet environments. You understand that night work requires structure around sleep and recovery to be able to stay awake and focused even during quiet nights. You are comfortable keeping yourself occupied during calm moments, while always keeping the child's needs in focus. Furthermore, you are punctual, reliable, and flexible, with the ability to cover for colleagues when needed. You also have a good understanding of what it means to work in someone's home and always act professionally, respectfully, and attentively in the home environment.
All necessary training and orientation is provided on site, so previous experience is not a requirement for this role. Perhaps you have worked with children or in care and health services, or you are simply a naturally caring, responsible, and attentive person who is now seeking long-term work.
