    Description

    We are a family of four, with two girls aged 7 and 5 years. Plus our friendly Springer Spaniel dog Ruby. (She is mostly outside)
    We are looking for a single female, ideally experienced with children to start Sunday 20th/Monday 21st of June for 5-7 days.
    We want someone that is efficient, can use their initiative and get things done in a timely manner. Enjoys cooking, cleaning and children :)
    Our priority right now is spring cleaning our home and getting things organised as well as getting some meals cooked to have in the freezer. So the child care part is very small as both girls are at school.
    We would consider a week stay if that is your preference.

    *Absolutely must be a non-smoker

    We look forward to hearing from you!
