  Descripción

  Hi, my name is Terri. I’m a 38 yr old female. I live with my 41 yr old husband:Ryan and our two young children, Leo (4 yrs) and Summer (2 yrs + 10 months). We live in our own big and beautiful home in Coolum Beach. I am a nurse and Ryan owns and works in his waterproofing business. We are searching for friendly, happy, fun, responsible, kind, humble and flexible work awayer’s! I have a good friend in Melbourne who highly recommended I use workaway. And after hosting our first work awayer (a German lady who is about to move on after living with us for nearly 5 weeks), it has not disappointed. We have all loved sharing our lives with someone new. It’s a less stressful household having another adult to share the load. We’ve cooked so many beautiful meals, my love language is definitely food!
  
  We are searching for an extra set of hands. But not just anyone. We want to find someone well suited, who will enjoy living with (sometimes loud but beautiful) toddlers.
  
  Please note you must be fluent in English (especially important for communicating with toddlers) and have a valid drivers licence. As well as being confident driving on the left hand side of the road.
  
  The kinds of tasks this chosen person would be doing 5 days per week (5 hours a day) would be:
  -Helping with the morning/evening routines with the kids if I am working. (I will be working shift work, 6 per fortnight plus 1 day a fortnight doing online modules)
  -driving kids to/from daycare (they attend three times per week-Tuesday, Wed & Fri)
  -possibly driving Leo to and from therapy sessions (he has two sessions per week for his developmental delays).
  -cleaning weekly to help me keep on top of the house. This could look like 3 hours per week which would include sweeping/mopping floors, cleaning kitchen, toilets/bathrooms
  -helping to day day tidiness of the house- dishes, washing ect
  -gardening/plant care
  
  Leo and Summer are very loving, kind and empathetic kids (if I must say so myself!). They love their scooters and playgrounds. We’d love you to take the kids to skate parks and playgrounds when able. The kids love to help with cooking, baking and unloading the dishwasher. They enjoy swimming in our pool and playing at the beach. Summer enjoys the ocean more than Leo.
  
  The right person would have a bedroom and bathroom to themselves on the bottom level of the 3 level house. We have a pool you could use and a communal kitchen/living area.
  
  Ryan and I generally go to bed relatively early so you’d have the lounge to yourselves some nights. We don’t let the kids watch much TV at all, never in the mornings. More so a movie if it’s a rainy day or occasionally Leo watches something (generally a Daddy/Leo time. Not something Mummy allows haha). Leo loves a screen and we’ve found when it is on, he zones out of other learning opportunities hence we limit the use of screens. We actually went two months last year with no TV!
  
  We are a super friendly and kind family. Ryan and I have travelled a lot so sitting around the dinner table having a meal and exchanging travel stories (when the kids are in bed) is something we can offer. If you think you’re suited to join our family, send a msg. Currently, we have work awayer’s booked up until April 19. We would prefer our work awayer’s stay for a minimum of 4 weeks. And if we find that you’re a good fit and you too are happy, we could extend your stay. Look forward to hearing from you :)

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  We are an Aussie family. My partner and I love to travel and have made many memories and friends worldwide, particularly pre kids. We also travelled Asia for 7 months in 2023 with our two little ones, at the time they were 1yrs and 2.5 yrs! We’re super friendly and love a chat! We’d be open to providing local advice so you get the best out of your Sunshine Coast stay. We love cooking. Happy to teach you how to use the charcoal bbq which delivers the most smoky flavoured meat. Our home is only a 3 minute drive to beach or 15 min walk, you would have plenty of free time to get to the beach for some solo time.

  Algo más...

  Coolum beach is located only 25 minutes from the iconic Noosa. If you’re into hikes and keeping fit, Mt Coolum is only an 8 minute drive from our home and the Noosa National Park isn’t far either. You could use our spare car when we don’t need it. This would be helpful getting to Noosa ect.
