Description
We are a family of 2 living in pemberton, BC which is 25 minutes to whistler. We are young and fit, friendly and kind. Our home is clean and within walking distance to the grocery store, town and the bus to whistler. We also have a great 22 year old Australian roommate. We love her and our warm home. We need help for the summer!! First week of July and last week of August my daughter will be away but you could still come those weeks!
Types of help and learning opportunities

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Pemberton is a quintessentially BC town. You will experience great visual beauty, wilderness, sightings of many wild animals and have an opportunity to meet people from all over the world and ski/snowboard. There are also many jobs in pemberton if you need to supplement your income. We are from a family in BC that has been here since 1750.

We need child care during the summer from Monday to Friday so mom can work! Weekends off. This would include going to the lake, sports, library, Whistler, art projects and anything fun especially outdoors to keep my daughter busy:-)

Accommodation
You will have a private bedroom with a double bed and a private entrance in my 3 bedroom townhouse. I will pay for all of the food and buy whatever special or additional foods as requested. You will be required to cook dinners and some lunches (with my instruction on monday through fridays).
What else ...
There are a million fun things to do while you’re not working. Whistler has a book called 100 free things to do while in whistler! We can also take you for fun trips to Vancouver and invite you to outings with friends. There is lots of hiking and mountain biking in or backyard and a community Center 1 Block away.
