We are a family of 5 - me, my husband and our 3 kids (4,5 and 10 y.o), living in a small town by the Baltic sea. Are in the middle of renovating 130 year old house, just moved in ourselves at the one end of the house, but need a lot of help to make the yard and enjoyable place, while the renovations still are ongoing. Looking for help with the housework and babysitting ( school holidays are June 1st - Aug 30est) and house renovations ( all sorts of jobs, light, hard and also for beginners).

Our property is 70km from Riga, there is good public transport connection with Riga and other cities, summertime is filled with activities. We have 2 national parks near by, the beach is100m from our house. We live between the two properties ( my mom lives 8km away, my dad 2km, so there Is always a healthy communication between).
