  Description

  I'm a single father with 4.5yr old boy. I work from an office in Palma and sometimes from home. My son goes to school (0900-1530) in the village. I travel quite a bit with work. We have a an old dog.
  Ideally would love to get help fixing and improve the outdoor kitchen area and some other small projects.
  Would definitely appreciate some help cleaning/cooking/gardening (10,000sqm!) and a driver's license would be a plus. We might be able to provide a small car to the right candidates.
  Would suit a couple very well given the separate accommodation in newly refurbished apartment.

  Help

  Ideally looking for a couple to help with 1Ha of land/garden and one young boy of almost 5yrs. The property is in a stunning location in the Tramontana 10min walk between two villages. The terracced walls need constant maintenance and there are always some minor construction and gardening projects on the go...e.g. improving an outdoor kitchen, making pergola's, building outdoor furniture, improving irrigation systems, etc..
  My son is super sweet and would need minimal help such as occasional babysitting, pick-up/drop off from school.
