  • Description

    Description

    I am British, working as a photographic shoot producer and location scout, living in India for 15+ years. I have two children a girl and a boy. They are at day school in Delhi. I am a single parent but have quite a bit of help at home already. We have 4 dogs - 1 large and 3 small. They are extremely friendly but can be a little noisy.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We live in the middle of New Delhi, very close to many cultural sights and Nizamuddin railway station, so the traveller would have access to a wide variety of options in Delhi and beyond. We are a British family but have been living in India for 15 years - both children were born there, so we have a deep understanding of the country and can offer travel advice and much more.

    I work full time from home but sometimes long hours. There is a full time cook, so the traveller will not need to do anything in the kitchen, plus I have a cleaner 3 days a week. So any house help would be minimal and limited to laundry or ironing if needed. I need somebody to help with my children, school pick-up's, French and/or Spanish, as well as do activities with them, if I am working - these include tennis, swimming, horse riding. Plus I need someone who likes dogs and could walk them, not all at the same time!

    What else ...

    The list of what to see in and around Delhi is endless. Any helper would be able to go to Rajasthan for the weekend or head up to the Himalayas. They would be in an ideal position to really discover India.
