    Adventure, Sun, and Family Fun: Help Us WIth Our Kids and Join Us as We Explore Crete & Beyond!
    About Us
    We are a high-energy family of four (plus our busy online marketing agency!) living the dream in beautiful Chania, Crete. Our home life is a mix of digital nomad hustle and Mediterranean relaxation. Our team consists of:

    Siel (8.5): Our curious explorer.

    Laor (3.5): Our ball of energy.

    Mom & Dad: Entrepreneurs who love what we do but need an extra pair of hands to keep the balance!

    We live in a villa surrounded by nature, featuring a refreshing pool and views of the sea that never get old. We are 15 minutes from the city center and very close to the airport, making us a perfect base for your Cretan adventures.

    The Project: Help & Harmony
    Because we run our agency from home, the lines between "work" and "life" can get a little blurry! We are looking for a responsible, fun-loving, and proactive person to join our "village."

    Your main role will be:

    The "Fun" Captain: Engaging with the boys (when they're not is school, playing in the pool, and keeping them entertained while we are in "deep work" mode.

    Home Harmony: Helping us keep the house in order (light tidying, keeping things organized).

    Parent Support: Giving us some much-needed "parents' time" without the boys.


    What’s In It For You?

    ! A private space in our beautiful villa with pool access.

    ! The chance to see some of the most beautiful parts of Europe and Greece.

    ! A seat at our table—we treat our Workawayers like part of the family (and we leteraly cook very well)

    ! Plenty of time to explore Chania’s world-class beaches and Crete's hiking trails

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Absolutely! We love the 'exchange' part of Workaway.

    For the Foodies:
    I am a passionate cook and would love to share the secrets of traditional Greek and Mediterranean cuisine with you. From choosing the best local Cretan ingredients to mastering the perfect family feast, you’ll definitely leave our home with some new culinary skills.

    For the Aspiring Marketers:
    Since we run a top-tier online marketing agency, you can get a unique 'behind-the-scenes' glimpse into the digital marketing world. If you are interested in entrepreneurship, social media, or strategy, we are happy to share our knowledge and treat your stay like an informal marketing internship. We’d love to discuss ideas and trends over dinner!

    **This is ofcourse optional :)

    Beyond the help and the travel, we truly love the spirit of hosting. We believe we offer a great model for a high-functioning, entrepreneurial, and spiritually connected family. We live a fast-paced life workwise, but we stay grounded through our connection to nature and each other.

    We genuinely love people! We are looking for someone with a 'can-do' attitude and a big heart to join our circle. If you are someone who is positive, proactive, and looking to see how a modern nimadic family balances business and adventure, you will feel right at home with us.

    We are looking for a proactive 'big brother' or 'big sister' or big auntie :) figure who can jump into our family rhythm.
    Your primary focus will be our two boys, playing, swimming, and keeping them engaged while we are working .

    **During the school year, the boys are in school, which leaves you tons of free time to do whatever :)

    Since we run a busy agency from home, we also appreciate a hand with 'household harmony.' This isn't heavy cleaning, but rather helping keep the common areas tidy, clearing up after snacks/toys, and occasionally helping with meal prep. We often travel as a team, so we need someone who is adaptable, organized, and enjoys the adventure of being in new places while keeping the kids' routine stable.

    We also love our much needed parent alone time ad sometimes travel for business for a couple of days... so babysitting at those times will be very helpfull :)

    We truly want our Workawayer to feel like an equal part of the family. Living together, traveling together, and learning from one another.

    Our Way of Life & House Rules

    We balance a high-energy entrepreneurial life with a grounded, spiritual heart. Our home is a positive sanctuary, and we’d love a "team player" who fits that energy!

    Values: We raise our kids to be both kind and adventurous. We expect our guests to model that same excellence and big-heartedness.

    Spirituality: We aren’t religious, but we keep both Jewish and Christian tradition during holidays. We respect all paths and ask for the same respect in return.

    Peaceful Vibes: We have a no-politics in the house rule. We prefer focusing on growth, travel, and good food!

    The Deal: We are very flexible and respectful of your space; in return, we appreciate a proactive, "can-do" attitude with us :)

    What you can do in your time off & Transport

    Crete is an explorer’s paradise! In your time off, you can visit world-famous beaches like Elafonisi or Balos, hike the majestic Samaria Gorge, or get lost in the charming alleys of Chania’s Old Town.

    Transport: We are located 15 minutes from Chania city center. While we can occasionally give you a lift when we’re heading out, there is a local bus network (KTEL) that connects our area to the city and the airport. For total freedom to explore the hidden mountain villages or remote beaches, many of our guests choose to rent a small scooter or car for a few days.
