  Description

  We are a small busy family living in Palm Cove, near Cairns in Far North Queensland, Australia.
  
  I need someone who can cook, clean up around the house, help in the garden and help look after our animals.
  I also would be happy if you could iron and help with any other odd job around the house that I may have.
  
  You will share the house with 2 dogs and 2 cats all very friendly and love to have people around them.
  We have a bus stop that can take you into Cairns Central easily that is a short walk from our front door and also iconic Palm Cove Esplanade with a beautiful beach and loads of cafes and shops just 25 min walk from our house.
  Like to see the crocodiles get fed ? - Hartley's Crocodile Adventures is 15 mins up the road and Port Douglas is about a 40 min drive north from our house.
  
  Our home is a non smoking (indoors) home and we take pride in keeping our home clean.
  
  We value respect, honesty and a willingness for shared learning and conversations.
  
  We can offer insights into travelling around Australia and local sight seeing experiences within and around Far North Queensland.
