Hello Workawayers! 👋
We’re a busy family of three (plus our friendly but shy cat!), with our 1.5 year old daughter, Lucy. We live in Lake Macquarie, NSW - just a short drive from Redhead Beach and several other beaches near Newcastle.
Both of us work - Brody is an engineer, and I (Emma) work part-time for the State Government while juggling life with a toddler. While our work keeps us busy, family time is our priority, and that’s where you come in!
We’re looking for a friendly, reliable, and proactive person to help with household tasks like cooking, cleaning, laundry, and tidying. This will free up our time so we can focus on Lucy and spend time together. Occasional babysitting may be needed, but the main role is to help keep the house running smoothly.
In our free time, we enjoy spending time outdoors at the beach or parks with Lucy. If you enjoy an active, coastal lifestyle, you’ll fit right in!
If this sounds like the right opportunity for you, please get in touch. We’d love to hear more about you and see if we’d be a good match!
Looking forward to hearing from you! 😊

Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
We love diversity and enjoy learning about different cultures! We’d love for you to share your traditions, experiences, and even speak to our daughter in your native language - it’s a wonderful way for her to be exposed to different sounds and cultures from an early age.
In return, we’ll share our Australian hospitality, introduce you to the Aussie way of life, and even teach you some classic Australian recipes (and slang)! We also love trying new foods, so we’d be excited for you to cook and share your favorite meals with us!
