    Description

    We are Jess, Nick, Jack (2), Sophia (1) living in beautiful Rangitahi, Raglan. We are a warm and welcoming young family looking for a couple to stay and help us in the week before we move to do some spring cleaning!

    Nick works (a lot) as a project manager and Jess is kept pretty busy being mum to two littlies! Whilst doing some part time work as a self-employed architect (usually when the kids are asleep! 🙃).

    We need some help over a week with general home clean (floors, walls, bathroom, oven etc) and the car. We have a guest bedroom with queen size bed with a toilet and bathroom next to the bedroom for use. Jess loooves cooking, so you can expect to be well fed 😁. We are generally in bed quite early but you are most welcome to use the lounge with tv till late. We pop to the beaches and town in the car most days so can show you around the Raglan sites. We also love to walk around Rangitahi where we live (newly built suburb with lots of views) and walk to the local ‘Hut’ cafe for coffee and cheese scones.

    We have hosted many workaways previously in Auckland and loved meeting our workaways and learning about where they are from. We have stayed in touch with them all and consider them good friends. We look forward to meeting our new workaways and making more new friends!

A woman enjoys a sunny day on a wooden patio with two small children nearby, one sitting by the glass door, the other playing by a beanbag.
A child walks alone on an expansive, empty beach under a cloudy sky. Footprints zigzag across wet sand, dramatic dunes and driftwood complete the peaceful scene.
A quiet suburban street after rainfall, with wet pavements reflecting light, parked cars, modern houses, grassy vegetation, and a bright sky with scattered clouds at sunset.
A joyful man helps a smiling baby stand, holding her hands while sitting on a couch. Cozy, bright living room with computers and playful, loving atmosphere.
A man eats dinner on a balcony at sunset, overlooking scenic hills. The table has food, glasses, a phone, sunglasses, and potted plants for decoration.
