    Description

    We are a Mexican/English/Israeli family with a 3.5-yo and a 2-yo and a cat. Tona, my wife is also the kids' dad because she is trans, please be cool with that before you apply. Also please be confident you can earn the respect and admiration of a toddler.

    My name is Aya and I work full time, two days at home and the rest in the office. Including when the kids have a holiday which is where we need your help! The next holidays for us run from the 1st to the 12th of April.

    Other holidays include 27th May - 31st May and 19th July until 4th September. Don't worry if you can't meet the days exactly, we can be flexible either way.

    We will need support to get some things done around the house including things like meals, laundry, and playing with the kids.

    In everyday life; we go to my parent's house on Fridays (for a non-religious version of Shabbat) and it's your choice if you come along to that, They do have very excitable dogs by the way. You are welcome to be as independent or as involved as suits you.
