Description
Latest dates - really important as can be hard to jigsaw people in. I’m looking for someone from around here middle of July & I am looking for one volunteer only.
Hi,
If you would like to live in a pretty village by a river in a beautiful historic part of Ireland and get to know Irish culture or improve your cooking. This could be a wonderful exchange for you. I am looking for a volunteer to help us with our very busy lives .
Tasks will include cleaning the house, walking the dogs daily , babysitting and cooking nutritional meals ( we share the cooking, taking turns) and generally looking after us. I work nearby managing a small Hotel. I need someone is kind hardworking & outgoing with vegetarian cooking skills , creative , lots of fun and good english. I live forty minutes from Dublin of which a bus goes every hour and there are lots of beautiful walks and historic monuments in the area. I love to cook ( We are vegetarian) I like to garden and design and our home is very comfortable. We live beside the village of Slane in Co Meath .
As we are vegetarian we would prefer a vegetarian . We would like one day a week to do a deep clean ,the rest of the week we ask just the kitchen and washing & ironing kept on top of & the dogs walked & fed twice a day. Your days off can be Saturday and Sunday or Tuesday or Thursday but we can be completely flexible. We have wifi throughout the house and your bedroom is ensuite. There are lots of local activities such as kayaking, fishing, and swimming in the river in the summer. We live beside the village and their is a few restaurants and bars within walking distance - 10 mins. This opportunity may suit someone who is outgoing and used to the countryside or is a digital nomad and is looking to explore Ireland or is studying .
You will be asked to help babysit once a week in the evenings .We can go through the plan every Sunday . Holiday period is different & your role is more of help around the house & dog minding .
