    Description

    Hi!

    We are a family of 5, (3 kids age 4,7 & 8) looking for some help with childcare and to finish off our garden.

    We live on a detached site with a large garden and have recently had some work done to clear an area to use as a BBQ & play area.
    One wall is crying out for some bright, fun, artistic talent and we would love to invite some inspiration from abroad.

    We also need some childcare/entertainment for the older kids a couple of afternoons a week.
