It was very easy to operate as Sarah gave all the details and both were open to any question that we had. The time passed really quickly with plenty of fun and caring moments with Smudge, his little heart always giving the best… read more

My first experience with Workaway was with this lovely family! Sarah and Richard are great people, very welcoming and I had such a nice time with them! I had a lot of fun playing with the adorable children and get a look inside a local Kiwi family.
Thank you Brady family!

Great family, you can see that they really love each other. Children - Liam and Olivia (Mila also but I do not talk with her a lot - he's only 9 months :) are simply awesome - cheerful, they… read more

Staying with the Brady family was our first experience with a workaway family and it couldn't have been any better! We felt so at home with Sarah and Rich being so welcoming and friendly to us. They were more than fair with our work which included painting the garden fence, babysitting and cooking. We absolutely loved spending time with the kids… read more

I had a very great time with the Bradys, they are a really easy going family and very flexible, I could take off for a trip to the coromorandel peninsual, or what ever I wanted to do. I felt very welcomed and comfortable. The work was various, I did gardening, cleaning, looking after the kids, planting, cooking and baking.
Thank you very much… read more

We had a really good time while we were at Richard and Sarah's place. They are really nice people and always have an open fridge! :)
And playing with Olivia and Liam was also no problem for us!
Thank you for letting us stay with you!

I had a great time staying with the Bradys. They are a really wonderful family that made me feel welcomed and included from the moment I arrived. It's really easy to get into town and Sarah and Richard were always willing to help with transport when they were able. Olivia and Liam are super cool kids, if a bit of a handful at times, but what… read more
