  Help

  We are looking for help with the kids as dad is away for business and mom tries to combine the kids with a fulltime job. We are looking for an hour in the morning and two hour in the evening during week days. You will not be alone with the kids but help in the morning getting them ready for school and doing a quick cleanup of the house. In the evening you can entertain the kids while mom cooks and does the other household chores, or visa versa.
