    Help

    Ideally we are looking for a sunny, young person who speaks English ( help us teach it to the children), to stay from 2 to 4 months, helping for about 3 hours a day at times to be agreed upon, Monday to Friday (weekends off), with childcare. In particular, we would need help playing with them, tidying up their play area daily, taking them for rides around the house or picking them up from school or activities.
    Help with small household chores (clearing or setting the table, helping with cooking, and small yard tidying activities) would also be appreciated.
    Workawayers won't be taking care of the kids alone and will only be assisting.
