  • Description

    Description

    I live in a cosy house and am a mother of four children. Two live out of home, one is home occasionally and my 10 year old son lives at home with me. He spends time at his father's also.
    I am looking for the right person to help out with Archie whilst I'm working. Archie attends the local school, so he is not home during the day.

    My work as a tour guide means that I am away from home for 12 hours a day. I work casual hours but the summer time is very busy.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I don't have too many social activities in the summer months. The person I host could possibly play a summer sport if it fits in. I live 7 minutes from the beach and local take away shop. Half an hour away from the main town. There could be an opportunity to get paid work at the local shop which sells fuel, food and barista drinks, when I am not working. I have three teenage children that visit from time to time. I also love going camping and bush walking.
