We are a family of six but now that our children are away with work and university there are only the two of us left at home. My name is Lorna and I am a science teacher; my husband is Gareth who is a doctor but has recently retired.
We live in the beautiful countryside of North Yorkshire, England and have a large house and garden. We would appreciate a little help in maintaining it. We love having people to stay and getting to know people from other countries. Over the years we had many au pairs from other countries who were part of our family and were a valuable addition to our family life. We would love someone who is bright and sunny who is keen to share with us what life is like in the country they come from. If you are happy to cook, that would be marvellous! You would have to be someone who is self-motivated to explore the area as there will be days where we will be busy and you would have time to do whatever may interest you. Gareth is training to do a triathlon and is keen on indoor rowing so anyone who would like to train alongside would be welcome. Both of us would like to get better at yoga and Pilates so if you can teach that it would be really appreciated:)
We have had lots of experience helping people to improve their English and find that very rewarding.

As a family we love getting to know people from other cultures and helping them improve their English and sharing with them the many beautiful sites around North Yorkshire. We are 20mins from our local railway station where trains to London or Edinburgh take 2-3 hours. York is an hour away. The surrounding countryside is fabulous for people who enjoy walking or running.
The help asked from volunteers at our house is mainly help around the house and maintaining the garden.
