  Descripción

  Hi, thankyou for taking the time to read our profile 😊
  
  Next availability to stay is from Feb 15th onwards. A one month stay or longer would be preferable and an intermediate level of English is helpful.
  We would prefer someone over the age or 21 with experience of working with children, it is important for this role. Previous workaway feedback would be good to have or if possible references from elsewhere would be much appreciated.
  
  We are a family of 4, myself, my husband and 2 boys age 8 and 11. We have a 1 year old excitable small dog , she is affectionate and loves any extra attention.
  Our boys are outgoing, lovable and energetic children, they love to play and enjoy the outdoors. We have a large garden and live on a quiet country road without much traffic. The boys have a big trampoline to play on and really love anyone willing to go on it with them or to throw balls to them on it when they come home from school. Its a great way for them to burn off any extra energy before settling down inside for the evening

  Ayuda

  We are seeking 1 person or 2 friends/couple (willing to share a bed and room, photos included) to join our family to help mainly with the our 2 boys and a bit of housework/gardening.
  
  The most important thing for us is to have someone that genuinely loves kids and wants to play and engage with them. This task rates highest above anything else! The kids attention and happiness is the top priority, we are looking for people who are kind, patient and with lots of enthusiasm for spending time with children inside and outdoors
  
  Ideally you will need to be happy to be active, play soccer, play air hockey, table football, go to the park but also happy to sit in on rainy days and create arts and craft projects, play board games or lego, play music or basically anything to make the day a little fun! The boys are sociable and friendly and will be keen to spend time with you . We are a fairly lively house with lots of energy that often needs to be burnt off, so you would need to be up for this going on in the house between 7.30am – 8pm.
  You will have the privacy of your own space/room of course for when you need your own time to relax
  
  We also have our own vegetable garden and polytunnel outside the front door. We are just starting to grow food and would welcome any help in this area .A knowledge/interest would be helpful but not essential. We always have ongoing weeding in the garden that we would appreciate help with when the weather is dry.
  
  We have 3 chickens, a small dog and a cat, so a love for animals is needed. If your up for doing daily dog walking that would be ideal. There are lots of nice coastal walks close by.
  
  There are ongoing small DIY tasks to be done around the house. Also a few painting projects on the go so any help in this area would also be welcome
  
  Hours expected would be 5 hrs a day, 5 days a week.
  Usually the routine has been 1.5 hrs in the morning of home help and dog walking and then 3.5hrs with the kids after they return from from 4-7.30pm. I am around in the afternoon period to also help.
  
  The 25hrs of help a week is essential in the arrangement but hours and days we can be flexible on if that is needed to accommodated your own plans.
  We can plan ahead for each week. If the weather is good and you want to work outside, we can do our best to offer a mix of jobs to accommodate this.
