Description
During the dry season (April-October), I operate a busy Tyre & Mechanical Repair business on a 10-acre block in the remote Kimberley region (no mobile service). I have 3 dogs and an 8yo daughter (who is sometimes with me, sometimes in Broome with her mum).
The block is 280km from Derby and approx 6hrs drive from Broome. You will need your own 4WD to reach the property and the road is dirt most of the way. If you don't have a vehicle, get in touch and we may be able to work something out.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
Babysitting and creative play
Creating/ Cooking family meals
Help around the house
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are seeking 1 or 2 people who would like to experience bush life in the beautiful Kimberley region. It's a wonderful place to visit, but its hard to get to really know such a place when you are just passing through. You will meet a lot of interesting people at our busy block and learn about the ways of the Kimberley.
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
Duties will mostly include cooking/housework, yard work, child care and workshop assistance. There is never a dull moment.
Languages spoken
English: Fluent
Accommodation
Comfortable Tent or Caravan. You will be part of the family.
What else ...
I live on a simple bush block, 30km away from any other properties/roadhouses, so your own off-road transport is essential - this will also enable you to make the most of your time off and get to some fantastic places off the beaten track.
