Description
My name is Rose. I live with my husband and two children age 11 and 9 and our dog Molly. We live in Cork City close to the city centre. We are looking for a workaway to help us during the summer months to take care of our two boys and then dog sit for our dog Molly while we are away on holidays for 10days. Ideally we would like someone to stay from mid July to mid August. We would be looking for someone to help 4hours a day Monday to Friday.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are a very friendly family that would be happy to help the workaway improve their English skills. We also live close to the city center so they can easily travel to city on a bus that would take about 15 mins. I also work in west cork on a Friday which is a pretty seaside town the would be full of life during the summer months, and they would be free to come with me on a Friday in their spare time.

Accommodation
We live in a four bedroom house. They would have their own room, with all modern facilities.
If the workaway has any dietary needs we would be happy to provide them or put any foods they wish for on our weekly shopping list. They can either cook their own food or eat with us for the family meals.
What else ...
In their free time, they can visit the many museums and other beautiful attractions of Cork City. They would also be welcome to travel with me to west cork on Fridays and visit some of the beautiful villages and towns that come alive in the summer months

Both Arthur and Rose were very kind, friendly and open-minded: I could discuss anything with them. They treated me as part of the family.
Their cute children, Elliot and Myles, have different character and looking after them was more fun than work!
I hope we’ll… read more
