We’re Looking for a New Dad for our Family
Being a dad today is like being a superhero and artist, a fighter and philosopher all rolled into one. Think you’ve got what it takes to join the team!? Let’s find out!
Job Title: New Dad
Location: Home Office
Reports To: Significant Other and Boss Baby
Job Overview:
Our family is looking for a highly motivated and energetic individual to join our team as a New Dad. The ideal candidate will have a passion for working with children, the patience of Mother Teresa, a strong sense of humor, and the ability to multitask like a Gen Z influencer on TikTok.
Roles and Responsibilities:
- Diaper changing: Change diapers in under 30 seconds — one handed if necessary. Bonus points if you can do it in the dark while sleep deprived.
- Stroller maneuvering: Navigate any kind of terrain that comes your way, with the precision and calm of a Formula 1 driver, all while dodging obstacles such as dogs, curbs, pedestrians, and other dads with strollers.
- Bottle preparation: Prepare bottles while blindfolded and holding a crying baby, with the care and clinical precision as a Navy Seal preparing for a combat mission.
- Playtime coach: Come up with new and creative games, using household items like paper towels, wooden spoons, cardboard boxes, and blankets.
- Car seat installation master: Install a car seat in under 3 minutes, without the instruction manual and with the confidence and cool of a Delta Force operator.
- Sleep whisperer: Negotiate with a crying baby at all hours of the morning and night, using a soothing voice, lullabies, and gentle rocking (or bouncing on a ball as needed) to get them to sleep.
- Laundry wizard: Wash, dry, fold, and put away an entire load of baby clothes, without losing any socks or onesies. Bonus points if you can remove all stains from spit-up and food.
Requirements:
- A minimum of 3 years of experience as a parent or caregiver
- Ability to work flexible hours, including nights, weekends, holidays, and overtime
- Ability to work under extremely high stress and chaotic conditions
- A sense of humor and a positive attitude
- A cool, calm demeanor and a pleasant smile
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- Ability to go an entire weekend without watching college football or the NFL
Benefits:
- Unlimited love and cuddles from significant other and boss baby, expect for when either one is tired, sick, stressed, or not in the mood
- Flexible schedule and the opportunity to work from home
- Opportunities for professional development, including taking online courses in diaper changing, bottle preparation, and crib assembly
- A supportive and understanding team, consisting of your significant other and in-laws, and the occasional random stranger who wants to offer advice
- Multiple opportunities for advancement, including becoming a parent to more children
If you’re a highly motivated, patient, and energetic individual, with a passion for working with children and a sense of humor, we encourage you to apply for the position of New Dad. We offer a very challenging but extremely rewarding work environment, with endless opportunities for growth and advancement.
