  Help

  We are looking for a female to help with our two children ages 4 and 21 months. We will also need some help with cleaning (specifically bathrooms, floors, baseboards, windows, etc), cooking and gardening.
  
  We will be going to Oosoyos in July and are hoping to bring someone with us to help with the kids and cook some meals. We will be staying at Spirit Ridge () in a two bedroom villa. There are two pools, Nk’Mip winery on site, and the beach is a 10 minute walk away as well as Adega winery.
  You will be sharing a room with our 4 year old daughter. You will each have your own queen beds. Your travel there and back will be covered as well as your meals, of course:)
  
  We may also get you to help out my Mom with some cleaning and gardening at her house in Duncan a couple of days while you are with us. You will still be staying with us though, I will just drive you in and back:)
