Beschreibung
We live in a quiet town called Bolwarra in The Hunter Valley. With plenty to discover; 2 hours from Sydney, 45 minutes from Newcastle (lots of beaches and an airport), 30 minutes from the Hunter Valley Vineyard ( wineries), and an hour from Barrington Top, the Central Coast, Nelsons Bay and other beautiful towns and beaches. My name is Katie, 40, and our 2 little children are Elle 4.5 and Joey 2.5 .My partner Steve 48, has 2 boys (twins) who are 13. We live a very healthy (holistic) lifestyle. We would love someone who is handy with small building projects like creating and building a nature play area to decking out a shipping container. Also painting, yard work (lots of gardening and planting). A bonus would be someone who likes kids and who would be confident to look after Elle and Joey sometimes ( but not a necessity). Approximately 22-25 hours, 5 hours a day 5 days a week. Ingredients for food or a food allowance for 3 meals a day (breakfast, lunch, dinner) provided, and sharing most dinners with us as a family. You will have your own large private living space, with 2 bedrooms, a kitchen, dining, lounge room, office/desk, bathroom. We also have a car for your personal use, you will just need to pay for petrol and any damages if they occur when in your use. Having more people around to share and learn everyday life with would be a great experience for us. It would also be nice to slow down and with the help around the house and with the kids I could find some time to learn to stop and enjoy life.

We live in a large 2 storey house on just under 2 acres. On the first floor there is a large separate living space, with a kitchen, dining, lounge, TV, office, and bathroom. There are 2 bedrooms. It has beautiful views of the trees and is very open with large doors and windows. Ingredients for food or a food allowance for 3 meals a day (breakfast, lunch, dinner) provided, and sharing most dinners with us as a family. We would require you to be quiet from 8.30pm until 7.30am as the area, especially the bedrooms and bathroom are directly under where the kids and I sleep. It is very quiet where we live.
Was noch ...
There is plenty to do in the area, eating out, beaches, wine tasting/tours, lots of great walks, hunter valley gardens, hot air balloons, retreats, yoga, cooking classes. Fly to Queensland or Melbourne from Newcastle airport (45 minutes away). Catch the train or drive to Sydney or the Central Coast. Mid north coast and short drive away too. Hiking/Bush walk at the Barrington Tops.
With little kids we have a routine we follow. most days. We believe in minimal technology, lots of outdoor and sensory play and live as toxic free as possible. I like to teach my kids boundaries but want them in a positive environment that is nurturing, kind and with lots of laughter.
My expectation of people around me is to be hard working, organised, trustworthy, reliable, respectful, patient and caring. No drama. Also clean and tidy with good hygiene, no perfumes (allergic). Non smoking.
Will need to be respectfully quiet especially when the kids and I have gone to bed.
Someone with a sense of humor would be a bonus, is easy to talk to and loves kids and is fun.Etwas mehr Information
