Description
We are a family of 3 permanent residents & 2 visiting siblings (fortnightly) made up of myself Eloise, my partner Jonny, our daughter Aurora & her half brother & sister Leo & Ayla. We also have a dog called Shadow, and her mum Blue also sometimes comes to stay! We are looking for someone who would like to come and stay with us in return for helping out with Aurora, Blue, Shadow & general housekeeping/ gardening.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Babysitting and creative play
Creating/ Cooking family meals
Help around the house
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Frome is a wonderful community full of interesting people with many different groups & gatherings going on. At our house we have a sauna and host groups of friends that gather to share song and stories. I host a lunch with friends or gather at Babbington House to enjoy the poolside & Gymn. The surrounding countryside is beautiful here with lots of lovely woodland/ riverside walks. This place would be great for someone who likes to enjoy nature, community, baby sitting & home keeping + cooking.
Projects involving children

Help
We are looking for some help to walk Shadow & Blue (when she is here). I would love to get myself out for a swim a few times a week, and so will need some help with Aurora during these times, you would be welcome to swim after if she hasn’t come in with me. I also need a little help to keep the house clean.

Accommodation
The bedroom is on the first floor and used to be on Air BnB as a rental for which I maintained a superhost 5* rating throughout. There will be a single bed, cupboard, mirror, chair & hooks for hanging things. The bathroom is on the same floor and consists of a roll top copper bath tub, toilet & sink. The shared rain shower is in the downstairs toilet/ wet room where there is Alison another sink & mirror. The house has three bedrooms including the one described- upstairs is where the kids come to stay every other weekend while the other bedroom on the ground floor will home myself, my partner & our daughter. The rest of the house consists of a sitting room with a log burner & television, bootroom, kitchen, garden room, garden + office & sauna.
What else ...
With time off I would recommend exploring Frome & the surrounding areas such as Bath, Bristol, Bradford-on-Avon, Bruton & Glastonbury to name a few. There is a wealth of things to explore in these areas as well as Frome. The monthly market in Frome attracts many people from far & wide (check out The Frome Independent, there is also a Saturday & weekly market here too.
