    Description

    We are a young family with two little kids (1 boy 18 months old and a newborn boy 5 weeks old). Dad is from Germany and mum is Australian. We have a mechanic and engineering business that Eugen runs. Mum, Alice, helps out with the business but main focus is the kids. We love camping, travelling, going to local events, socialising and being outdoors. We love our home and take good care of it. Eugen loves doing anything physical and making stuff, his big focus is the business. Alice rides horses, is very creative and social. Our eldest boy is fun, smart and curious. He is a little boy who wants to learn and play.

    We are looking for someone to be a part of our family as well as someone who will want to enjoy and explore where we live.

    We are need of some help with our little ones, basic cleaning around the house and some outside projects.

    We are looking for someone who loves little kids - we have a newborn and a 18 month old. You will have the eldest boy two times in the week on your own and once or twice going with mum to swimming lessons etc. we are looking for someone who is not only confident with kids but takes initiative with them and their needs.

    Around the home we need some support with general cleaning - bathrooms, floors, dusting and just tidying up after the kids at the end of the day.

    Outside projects - if you are keen we have a dog who loves a walk and a chicken coop that once in a while needs a clean out.
    We have some small gardens and lawns that once in a while need some maintenance. We love DIY projects and if you are keen we can make some things happen.

    We have our own business and so we are just needing some help to keep the household going and also to give mum a rest throughout the week by keeping the 18 month old busy.
