Description
Our family - me, my husband, three daughters(5y, 3y, 18m) and a dog - live in a big house close all the activities. We’ve been renovating and building for almost two years now and are close to finishing it soon. But sometimes extra hands are just what we need to keep the household going and the kids entertained, sometimes would be even nice to have coffee when it’s still hot! :) take our kids to park, help with gardening or renovating or just walk the dog, whatever works best for you it’s all helpful to us. You’ll have own private room and are free to enjoy sauna and jaguzzi with us.
