  Description

  Hello, we are a small family living in Summerhill, County Meath, Ireland. We live 2 min walk to bus stop to Dublin centre (1 hour) which will help you travel all over Ireland.
  We have now hosted many Workaway’s since January 23, all of whom had a great time ( I can put you in contact with the girls ) and are interested in hearing from you if you are looking to stay with an Irish family for a short / long time.
  In return you will really take care of 95% of the daily housekeeping tasks and spend time with Mara after school and us after work.
  We are both working professionals & our daughter is in school daily.
  You will cook the evening meal daily, manage cleaning daily, washing, ironing, food shopping.
  We are an active family, in a busy house - always something happening and we have loved including our new friends while they have helped in many ways.
  You will have weekends to yourself to explore North & South! We are flexible where you need to take an extra day to travel further afield.
  Thank you.
