    Description

    Hi my name is Sophie Chapman. My partner and I manage a dairy farm in north waikato. We have a son Rylan and a puppy Ace. We live a happy family life and are very blessed. I am also a student studying to be a paramedic. And I work part-time as a support person. I would love to make new friends who can go on hikes with me and adventure in our free time. We are looking for someone who can pick our son up from daycare and sometimes babysit. Also help a little with household chores. Someone with a friendly personality who can share our amazing life with us!
