    Description

    We are an adventurous family living on a beautiful farm in rural Perthshire, Scotland.
    We have four children, Girl 12yrs, Sporty Boy 11yrs, Girl 10 yrs and Girl 6yrs.
    We live in a spacious house, you would have your own room and we would enjoy looking after you as part of the family. We have a small terrier called Mouse, a puppy called puffin, two ponies and lots of sheep!
    We enjoy spending time outside, riding, walking, swimming in the loch we have on the farm, generally having lots of fun and adventures. We live close to Dunkeld which is a small village with a great lively pub, lovely places for coffee and lost of mountain biking, trail running and hill walking.
    We are looking for help the children and light housework for the Easter holidays. We will be busy lambing on the farm, the children do get involved but it is great to know we have an extra pair of hands to help with them and the house!

    We have had many Aupairs in the past all with huge success and so we know how it works and are used to having someone around!
    Couples welcome!

    Help

    We are looking for an extra pair of hands to help over the Easter holidays while Jake and I are busier than usual with lambing. Just some general help with children and in the house.

    The children are very helpful over lambing and we all get involved.

    Other helpful things might include time outside with the children, doing arts and crafts and generally keeping them active. You will need to be full of energy, patience, and enthusiasm.

    Would love you to join in our family life.
