After-school weekday childcare for 8 and 11-year old

Hello! We are looking for a loving and reliable caregiver for our 8 and 11-year-old children in Maplewood. Our specific needs are in the after-school hours (2:30-5:30pm), but there may be opportunities for extra hours. We live on a shared park, where many local kids play together, so there is often little need to schedule play dates, etc. Duties would include helping the kids with homework, driving them to their sports practices and preparing snacks/possibly dinner for them. We do have cats, so someone who is comfortable with cats is important and someone who is comfortable spending time outdoors while my kids play in the park. Thanks for considering us!
