Description
We're a family of 4 in the central North Island who are just looking for some assistance in general household chores and child pick-up during the week. Our girls are 9 and 11 and very good fun. (We are currently looking after a dog, which will require some walking daily.)
NB: Our spare room is currently without a bed. We can supply a blow-up for short stays and can provide a proper one, should we agree on a longer period.

There's lots to do in terms of activities and sightseeing. Bikes available and potentially a car for all or part of a weekend. Can discuss longer at certain times. Can potentially travel in our car from Thurs to Sun for proper trips :-)
We don't smoke or vape. We often enjoy a drink of wine/beer/cider but more often in the weekends.
