We are a family of 3 (mum, dad & 7 year-old girl) living on the beautiful Ring of Kerry / Skellig Region, in the town of Cahersiveen, next to the Atlantic ocean. We are a 3 minute walk to the local supermarket / pub and a 15 minute walk to the centre of town. Both parents are working so we are looking for someone to help out with child care/ household chores / gardening/ painting. We are happy to host for longer term from mid/ late August for 4+ months.
