Description
We are a family of 4 (5 every other weekend when my step daughter comes to stay :). Our kids are 10,11 &12 and we have a lovely dog called Mayla. We live in Biot, France in a beautiful forest but are very close to Antibes, Nice & Cannes. We bought our house, a stone bastide, 2 years ago and are now on to the finishing touches. Both my husband and myself work full time and so we are super busy. We could really use some help!

Help
We have a busy time coming up. We would love for someone to come and stay (in our studio attached to the house) and help with house work, organising the kids rooms, maybe help with some painting, greet the kids off the school bus when we are both working from the office (we do a mixture of office work, home work and travel), light cooking if we are home late etc - standard busy family stuff!

I spent about ten days with Lucy and her family. This was my first Workaway experience and it truly exceeded my expectations!
Everyone was warm and welcoming! They made me feel comfortable from the very beginning, were very flexible, and even supported me through a few unexpected struggles.

About my work: Most of the time, I asked Lucy what I had to do and then I could choose when to do it, or she would tell me spontaneously how I could… read more
