  Description

  Hi! We are looking for someone to join us to help with our family life.
  
  We are a young couple in our early 30's with 3 children. We have 3 boys are 2 years 4 months old and 1 year 3 month and a newborn.
  
  We would like if you could help us in the home by playing with the children, taking them for walks and preparing snacks/lunch for them while I look after the new arrival.
  
  We also have two dogs who would love to be taken for a walk during the day/evening if this would be of interest to you also.
  
  You would have your own room with a television and a private bathroom for your own use. You would be free every weekend to do whatever you like.
  
  I am a Primary School Teacher and my partner is an Agricultural Contractor.
