  Help

  I are looking for someone who is looking to stay longterm with our family (ideally August 2021 until June 2022) but will consider shorter-term .
  
  We really would like you to become part of our family during your stay. If you are a kind, energetic, mature person, non-smoker, and likes the outdoors then come stay with us!
  
  I am looking for someone who is willing to help babysit my 2 yr old daughter Susie -approx 15 hrs a week. She attends creche 3 days a week.
  
  I am University lecturer with two children, Susie aged 2 and Patrick aged 19 (who is largely away at College.) We are a busy family with many activities like , swimming, surfing and walking our three dogs.
  
  We are also ten minutes drive away from the nearest beach where we swim daily -even throughout the winter. You are welcome to join us !
  
  We have 3 dogs who are very much part of our family and we would require your help walking these.

  Accommodation

  Private bedroom with your own bathroom (may be shared with my son , aged 19 when he is home from College-not very often ! ). Self contained kitchen with separate entrance .
  
  No meals are provided, that's why I ask for few hours of help per week. I believe it's easier this way so you can plan and cook for yourself as my eating habits are a bit different.

  What else ...

  Workawayers will be introduced to the community that I am very much involved in and helped develop whatever their area of curiousty is .
  
  Workawayers will also get ample opportunity to discover the regional history and explore the local area and we will always try and be flexible to allow workawayers time to enjoy our area.
  
  We live in a two story, 4 bedroomed house in the suburb of Viewmount close to Waterford city. There are many English classes you can attend in Waterford and where you can get to know others if you wish.
  
  We live close to Waterford city,, approx 20 minute walk into town or a ten minute bike ride.. Also the bus stop is less than 5 minute walk from our house and it goes to the the city every 30 minutes so it's a great service.
