Description
Hello Workawayers.
===============
Dates needing help: 24.06.24 to when ever suits both of us
===============
I need help cleaning the house, laundry and helping prepare and cook meals. Can help with cats and dogs too if you like, but not necessary. I will help with the children mostly but sometimes will need a little help with a bit of homework and a bit of fun.
We'd love to have your company. I need help running the house and 2 kids(both boys 12 and 8) in our general day. We would like to help you learn English and teach you our culture. You will rarely be alone here there is someone always around to chat to and help with chores. Most of the time I cook a lot but would be great if you would cook sometimes too or at least prepare the vegetables etc and we can then cook together, Along with helps with the kids, I would also need help cleaning the house and general day to day duties. We have great atmosphere in our house We live in the countryside 3km from local town that has great social life and atmosphere within the town. We life very near beaches(Google Inchydoney and Clonakilty) where you can walk, surf or just sit and enjoy. My husband is a mechanic and does work at home sometimes. We have 2 dog who lives outside but visit inside every evening for a few hours and we got 2 cats who live outside, sometimes calls in to say hello. Thanks for taking the interest and time to read my profile. Hope to talk to you soon. Please write to me for more information if interested.

Help
Please contact me if your active, pleasant, open-minded, cheerful and happy within yourself. Must be good with young children and enjoy living in the countryside, 5km from nearest town. Friendly and chatty would be great.
And if you are a person who lives in your bedroom and do not communicate well then this house is not for you. But if you're a tryer and want to learn and get on in life then you will be perfect here.
Also there is a local group on Facebook where you can meet other girls(friends). Clonakilty has many au pairs and volunteers and this facebook site helps people to connect with each other.
