I am English, I grew up in France and lived 15 years in Spain. I have been living in South Africa for 12 years.
I have 2 sweet, energetic and creative children of 8 and 11 years old, a boy and a girl. My name is Joanna.
I am deeply curious mother / deep ecology facilitator /wilderness guide / artist / nature lover. Your presence will allow me to share daily kid care and house chores, plus some DIY, daily chit chat and the nurturing of our garden so that my daily routines become more enjoyable by freeing some space for myself for my work and studies.
I am mainly involved in parenting, studying and organising deep ecology events.
We'd like you to be part of our family, share our meals, some activities and our knowledge too.
On your side, open mindedness, good communication skills and positivity are important. This exchange is for people who like to be surrounded by nature and who live sustainably. Experience with children and enthusiasm for household chores are musts.

You will learn a lot from my children and the Waldorf way but also from the culture and wildlife of this small region called the Southern Peninsula, the Cape Peninsula or the Deep South.
This community is very focused on conscious living, and Scarborough is a 'conservation village'.
This is a beautiful area close to the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve, settled in the UNESCO Table Mountain National Park, home to the Cape Flower Kingdom. A nature lover's paradise. Kite surf and surf spot. Hiking.
Concerts in the village, craft markets, great food, etc...

I offer free accommodation and meals 5 days a week for a minimum of 3 weeks in my house in exchange for household tasks and childminding. I am looking for a well travelled and environmentally conscious person of 20 to 50 years old, with experience of living independently. Most weeks I need support at the weekends too, so work is not limited to week days.
Please only apply if you have experience working with children and also enjoy housework and importantly if you are comfortable living in a close shared environment. Experience with kids can be personal (siblings, family) or professional (teaching, babysitting, au pairing) .
We don't usually host men, unless they are particularly experienced in those 3 areas.
I would also include you in the care of our garden and house, so gardening and DIY woodwork skills are a plus.
My children are very curious, open, loving and always up and down. They are schooled at the local Waldorf schools. Activities they love include crafting, drawing, reading, playing musical instruments, swimming and taking beautiful walks through the village to the beach, the riverside or to visit friends.
Free wifi.

Individual cabin, with its own outside covered bathroom (toilet and hot shower) and shared living in the main house (at set times), free wifi, help with your leisure and travel plans.
Healthy vegetarian meals shared with the family on the days of work. I can also make vegan food for you.
The village is not connected to public transport but there are nice venues to eat out on your days off in the village.
You will organise your own transport to and from the airport if you are not already in Cape Town and during your stay if you need to go anywhere else.
You can use the app Uber or Bolt from the village to any spot around Cape Town or to the closest bus or train station.
We are concerned by the environment and healthy eating and we hope you are too. South Africa is water scarce so we have adapted our lifestyle to that, please adopt it too while you are here.
If you are interested please send us a message, so that we can organise a video chat and find out more :-)
Looking forward to meeting you! :-)

We have a good internet connection but your times need to be flexible, so that you can work around our times. We cannot work around yours.
