Description
Our family of 3 from New Zealand are currently living in sunny Kota Kinabalu. There's me, Krystle - 36 years old, Lola our 8 year old daughter and my partner Kerrin who is away working in Australia for 4 weeks. I work full time and as it is school holidays I am looking for someone friendly, fun and energetic to take care of our daughter while I am working. This would be no more than 4-5 hours per day, 5 days a week.
Lola, our daughter is easygoing, independent and loves to spend time doing all sorts of activities in and outside of the home.
In our apartment you would have your own large room and we would want you to make yourself at home and come and go as you please. Outside of work we are pretty social and would love to have someone else that is keen to meet friends and enjoy the social and outdoors side of KK!
Our complex has a swimming pool, tennis courts, gym, basketball hoop and is a 15-20 minute walk to the city centre, 5 minute walk to supermarket and cafes, and very close to Likas Bay beach.
We would provide basic food and groceries at home and invite you to eat with us whenever you choose to - we do eat out a lot!
This would be a great position for someone who enjoys spending time with kids, is proactive in having fun and who wants plenty of their own time to socialise, enjoy KK and meet others!
We are looking for someone to stay for 3-4 weeks as soon as possible/July.
We look forward to hearing from you if this sounds like you!
