Description
Hello, I am a single parent living in a village with my three children. I previously worked as a web developer with a not-for-profit and am now transitioning into full-time work in education and community learning.
I am building a nature- and community-rooted learning initiative that explores alternative education through micro-schools, learning gatherings, camps, and hands-on experiences. This year, I am bootstrapping the initiative, and any kind of support is deeply appreciated.
My children cover most of their academics online. Earlier they explored Kalaripayattu and different art forms; now we are moving towards more focused exploration in arts and creative education. As a family, we function like a small team—learning together, experimenting, making things, and enjoying a simple village life.
We spend time gardening, cycling around the village, visiting the beach, listening to music, and doing DIY projects.
I am looking for help with spending time with the children, supporting daily routines, helping in the house or garden, and contributing skills wherever possible—planning, documentation, marketing, storytelling, or creating simple promotional material.
I value people who are comfortable working independently and enjoy a grounded, low-key way of living. As a single parent, and because I may occasionally need to leave the children in your care, I am more comfortable hosting a couple or, two women friends.
If you enjoy arts, music, movement, education, DIY, or community living, you’ll likely feel at home here 🙂

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We moved to this area for learning martial arts and other art forms. You will find plenty of institutions and teachers who teach different Indian art forms. There are classical as well as folk arts being taught and practiced in this region. You can join these institutes or I can arrange special classes for you with the artists.
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
They are independent and energetic. Just monitoring them and making sure that they don't get into trouble will be of great help. Also sometimes, when I have to be away, I expect you to be in charge of the house. The kids knows all basic cooking and everything. However, an adult has to be there to make sure their safety. You can also help us with keeping the house clean, garden watered and planted, little new projects are taken care of etc.
