    Description

    We are a Vegetarian family of 4 who work in health and hospitality.
    Our two daughters are aged 6 and 10 so we would prefer to have a female helper.
    We like to live a yoga lifestyle and love to practice yoga and meditation daily.
    We follow a yoga diet which is vegetarian with no onion, garlic or mushroom and our house is alcohol, smoke and drug free.
    With our free time we like to get outdoors and go cycling, tramping, surfing and skiing.
    We would love some help with outdoor projects as well as general help around the house and of course lots of playing with the kids :)

    We'd love someone to play with our kids so we can do our day to day duties.
    Current projects we also need help with are planting seedlings, landscape gardening, fixing our pizza oven with mud/clay, weeding and mulching around our fruit trees and building a small shed.
    If you enjoy cooking and or general housework there's always plenty to be done :)
    We like to offer our guests a mix of jobs so that it stays fun and educational.

    We have bikes you can use to explore Nelson and beyond on.
    There are some great markets every Wednesday and Saturday.
    Buses leave close by to Tahunanui Beach, Richmond and Brook Valley.
