Help out with our very small family horse barn. We are not a business. We don’t produce anything. We are just a family with two horses at home :) and sometimes we need some help.
Located in a charming touristic area, in the "Vallée Bras du Nord". 50 min from Quebec city. Vallée Bras-du-Nord is the ideal outdoor destination!
My husband and I are born in France, we have been living in Canada and the US for 32 years. We traveled and moved a lot for work, and enjoyed many experiences. We like to manage new projects, have challenges, and meet new people from different culture.
We have been riding horses for many years. Having our horses at home was a big dream for us. During summer 2022, we have bought a new house with a large land and have built our small barn... Dream came true 😍.
I’m also a ski patrol rescue and first aid instructor. My husband works full time as a management IT consultant...
So, during the day when we are at work, or when we have to go for one or two days, we need help to take care of our two horses.
The horses are two mares, one is a paint/tobiano and the other a quarter horse. We have also our young dog, a gordon setter.
We need someone with horses experience, dynamic, reliable and demonstrating autonomy. Helping with the barn maintenance, taking care and cuddling the horses.
I need help around 3 days per week.
We have 3 boys (30 - 26 and 20) born in Quebec.
Our family also practices running and trail running, mountain biking, trekking ...
We have a large house and we offer a private bedroom with private bathroom. For the meals, we offer the same food as what we eat. We eat healthy and traditional food. Everyone in the house has to participate in the household chores on a regular basis, preparing meals, setting the table, tidying up...
All of these in a no smoking area indoor and outdoor and healthy environment ☀️Arten von Hilfe und Lernmöglichkeiten

Our first language is French, thus if you want to practice your French, you are welcome! But please, you must already know French. It is essential for me to be able to communicate with you in a precise way. It is very important for the care of the animals.Projekte mit Kindern

We are open to language exchange, we like to learn BUT you must already know French at intermediate level. It is essential for me to be able to communicate with you in a precise way. It is very important for the care of the animals.Unterkunft
We propose to accommodate you in your own bedroom in our house. Very clean and confortable. Bed, chair, wardrobe... Private bathroom. We share meals as a way to enjoy a cultural exchange, as we are not paying a wage, we don’t ask fees for food expense, but I only pay for regular familly food, not special food (such as special vegatarian diet, gluten free diet...). We have a dog but no cat.
