Help
After pregnancy and having a baby, plus being a single mom - I have not had time or energy to organise our home and it has become a little cluttered so I need some help with organising and decluttering. Alongside with keeping the home clean. I would love to be able to focus most of my time on my girls and worry less about housework. I might ask you to babysit once or twice if something comes up and it feels right. If you know how to drill a wall and hang curtains and stuff like that, that would be nice but not neccesary. If you like to cook that would be appreciated once or twice a week but not required.

Accommodation
You will get a private bedroom in our appartment. You will have a 110x190 cm bed, a desk, mirror, a dresser for your clothes and a small wall shelf for personal items or decoration. You will get 2-3 meals a day, snacks and sodas are not included (unless we have sodas with dinner). We usually don't sit down together for breakfast or lunch (sometimes happens though) so you would help yourself to something, but dinner we eat together and we a have a "no phones" at the table" rule when eating together. If you are not home for dinner - no problem, just let me know at least 2 hours before dinnertime.
What else ...
We life in an appartment in a subburb in Reykjavík. The busstop is 1-2 minute walk from our home, which goes through the city and stops downtown and at the beach. You can also get connected buses to almost anywhere you want to go. We have many heated outdoor swimming pools in Reykjavík and one is in 10 minute walking distance from us. And there runs a nice river 5 minutes away from us which has nice walking paths alongside.
