    Description

    We are a family of 4 living and playing in Roberts Creek on the Sunshine Coast, BC. We are primarily looking for some light childcare support (maybe 1 hour a day), some meal prep and some fun gardening projects.

    Our two daughters are 5 and 2 and we are looking for someone who loves children and has previous experience as a nanny or aupair or is studying or has studied anything related to childcare. Also ideally looking for a green-thumb! We have a great garden that needs some redesign and re thinking... Looking to build a greenhouse, living garden and some further landscaping.

    We designed and built our home which is by the ocean and in the forest and we are an active family who love to travel, go on adventures and be out in the abundant nature that surrounds. We have a completely new, architecturally designed home and a car available as needed and we would love to show you this beautiful part of the world! I'm an interior designer and my partner is a builder so if we are not working on a design project together we are usually planning the next family adventure...

    We live in a bit of a natural wonderland with the ocean at the end of the street and the mountains up behind us and the forest all around. I am Australian and have traveled and lived all over the world and my partner is Canadian and has also lived and travelled all over the world so we would love to share this beautiful part of Canada with you and take you on many cultural and outdoor adventures. We are happy to help improve english as needed and anything else that could be of interest! We are always working in the garden, or designing / building a project so there are many aspects that you could get involved with if interested!

    Help

    The main thing we need help with would be with some light meal prep, gardening and light child care. Our kids have childcare already out of the home so some gardening during the day would be the focus with plenty of flexibility.
