    Description

    We are a family of five living in St Martins, Christchurch, close to the city centre and the Port Hills.

    We have three kids: a 5-year-old starting school next term, a 4-year-old at preschool, and a 1-year-old who is still at home full-time.

    We are an active family and spend a lot of time outdoors. There are hiking trails close to our house, and you can cycle into the city in about 10 minutes or to the beach in around 35 minutes. We have a few bikes you can use.

    We enjoy camping and outdoor activities like diving, surfing, kayaking, hiking and paragliding. You’re welcome to join us on our trips and adventures.

    We are mainly looking for some help with the kids and everyday family life. We would like someone who enjoys being around children, is easy-going and responsible, and who would be happy to become part of our family while staying with us.

    We’d also be happy to show you around Christchurch and help you discover the South Island.
