[[Update August 2021]] We are looking for individuals who are hopefully already in Canada, can host right now anytime from now until maybe mid September, 2-3 weeks is ok.
We are open to hosting for 2 weeks to help with tasks around the house such as: organizing the garage, putting away summer items, maintenance around the yard, painting etc. If you read further below it’s more of a schedule for the kids care however we are looking for more of that extra hand around the house right now :)
We have 3 kids: ages 9, 7 and 4. They are attending day camp until mid August so we'd like someone to help with before/after but mainly with household tasks.
-Schedule will vary between 20-25 h a week with 2 days off (or 3-4 days if you prefer condensing your hours)
-Private bedroom & bathroom in our fully furnished and renovated basement. TV living room also downstairs. Unlimited high speed wifi + Free access to Netflix
-Minimum 2 weeks but prefer longer term if possible
-No experience with kids required however patience and fun are great qualities to have for them :)
-We can host a couple or friends, must be comfortable to sleep in same bed
-We offer 3 meals a day, we are a meat eating family so you must be comfortable with that but we can accommodate our best for vegetarians & vegans
-Non religious family but you’re welcome to practice yours
-We live in a quiet suburban city, there’s walking paths, bike path, parks and we live 1 street away from the water (great for walks or jogging)
We’ve hosted numerous workaways and have had really positive experiences and feedback. We can also pick you up from the airport and drop off :)

We live in a small city with a population of about 30 thousand people. It's the suburbs but very quiet and good chance to escape the city. We are a 30 min drive or 1h train ride from downtown Montreal (we're happy to drop you off at the train station or bus if you wish) We're quite flexible with additional days off if need be to explore
