Description
Hi! I’m a single parent living in the beautiful town of Midigama on the south coast of Sri Lanka, looking for a kind, responsible female helper to support me during the summer holidays with my energetic and curious 4-year-old son.
We live close to the beach in a relaxed coastal community known for surfing, sunshine and slow living. This is a lovely opportunity for someone who enjoys spending time with young children and wants to experience local life by the ocean.
What we offer:
• Private room with fan
• Lunch provided daily
• Full access to all living areas
• A safe, relaxed home environment (I have no outside guests in the home other than his godmother who occasionally stays with us and the local neighbours popping by)
• Free time to explore the beach, surf, travel locally
If you’d love to spend your summer by the ocean in Sri Lanka while being part of a small but fun family and a small village community with huge hearts, I’d love to hear from you.
I think this oppertunity would also suit a single mum of a child a little older with more independence as long as we can tweak the sleeping set up :)
