  Beschreibung

  Hi,
  
  We live in a beautiful part of the world! Trentham, Victoria, It's very 'Australian', peaceful, and relaxing. We often have wombats, kangaroos, possums, echidnas and deer visiting us. The farm is 200 acres and we breed Angus cattle.
  
  We are a family of 5 (Brad, Sarah, Angus 7, Evie 5 and Isla 3). The older children are at school Mon - Fri and Isla is at kinder some days. The children like visitors as our extended family are interstate. We often go on days trips to surrounding areas and Melbourne. Which the kids love and you are most welcome to join us on.
  
  Our local area has endless hikes, lovely villages, cafes, gyms, water holes/lakes and plenty to do. We are close to trains which can take you to Ballarat, Bendigo and Melbourne CBD in just under and hr. It is also an easy drive.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  The children love having people from other countries and learning about their culture. They also love sharing their very Australian landscape and lifestyle. When permitted we love bonfires, BBQ's, family meals, having people over, being busy, working on the farm. Taking day trips to the beach, local parks. However we also love the city. We speak English at home but love learning the key words in other languages. You will learn how to garden the duties required to run a farm and to be a part of the family in addition to respecting each other space and environment.

  Arbeit

  We would love help looking after the children , One day a weekend - short day (3 children) and 2 days a week with (1 child). Therefore a police check or Working With Children's card from your home country is essential.
  We could also do with help in the vegetable garden (light duties) and the odd pet sitting (if we go away), cooking of an evening meal is desirable as we love trying different cuisines (not compulsory if cooking os not your thing). Brad is often fencing on the farm and I am checking/ feeding/tending to the cows and doing cattle work if you would like to be a part of this.

  At the end of the day (following the children's bedtime - The family require their own space and ask you retreat to upstairs to relax in your own lounge). We will also respect your time and space when sharing the house. Especially when using social media and mobiles as we don't have those on during meal times and limit this around the children.
