Description
Hello! We are a family of 5 (Mom, Dad, Children: 8,6,4). Dad is a judge and Mom works from home in technical sales for a food ingredients company. We are looking to host people interested in doing some housekeeping during the day. We live about an hour from Chicago, 20 minutes from The Indiana Dunes National Park. We have a pool during the summer and a nice size yard.

Accommodation
We have a one bedroom, twin or full bed in the fully finished basement of our bi level home. We do eat meat in our house, and typically eat home cooked dinners 5/7 days of the week. Lunches are more casual and easy to prep. We often get pizza on Friday nights and will go out to dinner two-three times per month.
What else ...
Chicago is about an hour away, Indianapolis about two hours. Indiana Dunes National Park is about 20 minutes. In town, we have a cute down town area, nice running trail, fishing ponds, a shopping mall about 15 minutes away. During the school year, we are typically working and kids are at school. Weekends spent with friends and family. As a family, we enjoy the outdoors (hiking, camping, kayaking).
