    Description

    Hi 😊 My name is Carol. We are a warm and welcoming family living in a peaceful village in Iceland. I’m originally from Kenya and have three children.

    I’m looking for someone kind and reliable to care mainly for our baby during the day, as the older children are in school. Tasks include playing with the baby, preparing simple lunch, and light household help like tidying and folding laundry.

    You’ll have your own private room, all meals provided, and weekends mostly free. We live surrounded by nature, perfect for someone who enjoys a calm lifestyle.

    If you love children and want to be part of a respectful family, I’d love to hear from you
