We are a family of 3, with a 6 y.o. and cat living in the small town of Riondel. About 50km from Nelson and Creston. We have a web design business, studio ponnuki, and a sewing/silk screening business, Random Style. We live right on the beautiful Kootenay lake and are looking for someone responsible and independent to play and care for our 6 y.o. who can cook, do some gardening and any sewing skill will be greatly appreciated. Some of the task could also be ironing, cutting fabric with a pattern, may be involve in the design process and some silk screening.
