Description
We are a family of four (two kids, both 12 years old) living in a house in Vancouver, BC. We live active and healthy lifestyles (at least we try to!), and often find ourselves wishing we had more help around the house, cooking, hanging out with children, etc. We also love the idea of exposing our children (and ourselves!) to new cultures and languages from around the world.
We are looking for workaways that are comfortable with cooking (including meat) and helping to keep the house in order, as well as happy to be around children. Please let us know if you'd like to help!
Types of help and learning opportunities
Language practice
Babysitting and creative play
Creating/ Cooking family meals

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We live very near the heart of the city of Vancouver, including just a ten minute ride on public transit to reach downtown. We are an active family and love to spend our time outdoors and showing people around this beautiful city of ours. Always interested in teaching and learning from others.

We would love for our kids (and ourselves) learn a new language and culture! Open to anything :)
Accommodation
Separate bedroom is available in the downstairs area, although there is some shared space with the laundry room. Food is available in the central kitchen, which will be provided. We eat pretty much everything and have no food allergies.
We ask no smoking or drug use while on the property, and please refrain from bringing new people into the home.
What else ...
We are located just a five minute walk to the Skytrain line, which runs both directly to the airport on one end and to downtown on the other. So much to see and do! Also we are in walking distance from Queen Elizabeth Park and several community centers in the area.
