More details about your skills
I have years of experience in hospitality roles and more recently doing farm labor. In these work environments we do whatever needs doing. I have done some tractor/skidsteer work maybe 100 hours total. Used a chainsaw before, and several different wood splitting machines.
I am comfortable with some child care more so with tutoring older kids than newborns although I will gladly try to help if thats needed.
This past winter at my first ever workaway I helped my host who had MS. The personal one on one care was difficult both physically and mentally but it was also spiritually rewarding. I had never done anything like that before. I would love to do more in the future.
