    Description

    Hi there,
    I’m needing some help on our beautiful 5 acres in the stunning Bellingen Shire. We are only 30 minutes from Coffs Harbour NSW airport. With its enticing community vibe - great restaurants, bars, swimming holes, bush walking tracks and only 15 minutes to the beach, it’s the perfect place to meet new people and experience the subtropical environment.
    I have a studio room with private bathroom and balcony which would be perfect for a single person or a couple. I live with my husband who works away a lot and my two children - age 12 and 9.
    We are looking for help with gardening - mowing lawns, brush cutting, weeding, helping care for our alpacas, chickens, general property cleaning/maintenance and house work.

    I’m needing someone who is trustworthy, likes kids and getting their hands dirty. Strictly no smoking or drugs.

    You're welcome to spend your downtime in our pool or around the outdoor fire pit.
    I look forward to hearing from you.
