  • Description

    Description

    We are a family of 5 with a 12 year old, 9 year old, and a one year old in the home. We live on an acreage just south of Woodburn, NSW.
    My partner is a building contractor working full time and I am a yoga teacher/ healer and therapist. I am hoping to get my business going again and I am looking for home help mainly with our one year old, but also some light household tasks and basic gardening is possible. We hope to provide insight into the Australian culture through our love of the ocean, surfing, and nature/bush. The beach is 10 minutes drive. 40 minutes south of Byron Bay iconic beaches.
