    Hi,
    We are a young family recently relocated to Sussex. We’ve got a lovey annex (which you’d have use of to yourself) and a big garden and fields. We are looking for someone who would like to come and enjoy our lovely annex in exchange for helping us with some evening babysitting and a bit of weekend help with the kids! I’m at home, my husband works from home and commutes to London and we are looking for a cheerful person to help us out a bit but most importantly enjoy Sussex! We can discuss hours of help but we’d love some evening babysitting and weekend help. We note the importance of days off and can certainly accommodate two consecutive days if not more!
