Description
Hi!
We're a French-Kiwi little family with large smiles and lots of energy!
We live on a sunny hill close to the sea and have lots of fruit trees and grow a veggie garden. Our home is warm and modern, it's got a separate studio with its own bathroom, kitchen and outdoor area with bbq- this will be your place! I'm a solo mama who needs help looking after our paradise and my two angels (hahahaha!) - I'd love to meet you and share our slice of NZ with you.

I'm French - my kids are Friwi (French-Kiwi). I first came to NZ when I was 22 and I've blended fully with the locals now. We just came back from 2 years in France. We embrace the environment we live in, every day.

Help
In exchange for your own private accommodation (with WIFI) I'd like 2 to 3 hours of help during the day to do some gardening, play with the boys or help them with their English and their French reading and writing. We have a lovely cat named Moggie who doesn't require much but likes cuddles.
