We’re looking for a part-time writer and editor who is familiar with all the kid-friendly fun North Texas has to offer. This person will be responsible for maintaining three comprehensive online calendars (finding family-friendly events and entering them into the online calendar system; maintaining contacts with local museums, zoos, theaters and other attractions; requesting photos to go with events; and staying on top of changes to events, prices, etc.) and editing a version of the online calendar for print each month. This person must have excellent writing and editing skills (including knowledge of AP style, grammar, etc.); a degree and/or working experience in journalism, English or a similar field; organizational abilities; and attention to detail. This person must be familiar with family-oriented events and attractions across the Dallas, Fort Worth and Lewisville-Denton areas. Preferably, this person will know what it’s like to have a long weekend stretching out in front of him or her with easily bored children—and will know exactly where to turn to find fun activities to keep the kids entertained!

Please send a cover letter and resume to editorial@dallaschild.com.

The basics:
Time: Approximately 15 hours per week
Pay: depends on experience
Place: Work from home or in office
Start: As soon as possible
