Description
Hi I’m Claire together with my children we are a fun active family of 3 living at the foot hills of the Dandenong rangers in Melbourne.
The Dandenong rangers is a stones throw away and has some of the most pristine forests in Victoria. There are amazing hiking tracks just up the road and lots of tourist spots further up the hill.
I work and study at uni. The kiddies are with me 70% of the time. The other 30% it’s just me and I’m fairly chilled, usually working on assignments, gardening or working on an art project. I especially love pottery, painting and soft craft.
