  Descripción

  I am a first nation Mama with a almost 2 year old baby and very active 5 year old. I am looking for help walking my 3 year old dog who needs alot of exercise and would love an extra helping hand getting his walks in, I also need help starting my garden at my new place and where I do garden sharing. I do have other childrean but no need for child care they are all older and come visit on the weekends when highschool is not in and they live on another island. The toddler and infant are shared with their dad, he lives just down the road and is very active in the care of the kids.
  
  The kind of help needed is keeping up with dish washing after every meal, some meal cooking, but I will mostly do the cooking and help with cleaning up around the house. Some garden projects stuff I have a hard time doing alone most jobs you will work along side me when the littles are with dad so this is not every day.
  So you will have to be physically fit for hicking with the dog and able to lift things, move dirt, and occasionally dig holes.
  
  I live on beautiful Gabriola Island, With lots of beautiful walking paths and loads of different beach access's, this place is a dream for exploring.
  
  The island is a 20-minute ferry ride to downtown Nanaimo, and there is a cute little village center on Gabriola island for essentials. An island bus is also available that will get you to all different places on the island.
  
  I will be supplying food. If there are particular health or food needs, I will work with you, but you will need to provide your own special needs if out of my budget. Everything can be discussed. Also if you are needing extra kind of snacks that are not what I am supplying, I will be asking you to purchase yourself.
  Due to the older teens not living here, and only come to visit a few weekends a month, I will be hosting you in one or both of their rooms they are simple with a queen bed or a cabin with a double bed.
  
  Drinking will be needed to be kept to a minimum as this is a family home, as for smoking or vaping, there are designated places on the property where you can be accommodate, covered places.

  I have a small garden at my house, an orchard i take care of down the road and a shared garden on the other side of the Island. We will be prepping them for the next months of garden season, moving some stuff around, some inferstucture and sowing or transplanting plants. So there will be digging, pruning, putting organic materials on beds plus more. I have a green houses that will need to be worked on to finish.
  
  House work is helping with sweeping floors, some meals, dishes, help me keep up with keeping the bathroom tidy and clean.
  
  Generally help with tidying up yard.
  
  Dog walking is one of the biggest things that will be needed, twice a day or one big walk if we are not doing a bigger garden project in a day. I am looking from 2 hours a day of exercise the dog, if you love exploring beaches and different wooded paths. Aries is a perfect companion.

  The island is a beautiful tourist destination and lots of outdoor walking paths and beaches to visit. I can help facilitate rides unless my schedule is not work able to do so there is a bus system on the island that can get you to most of the placese you need to go. There is a golf course, out door hockey rink(not on ice), tennis courts, skate park, three restaurants and if shopping is needed we are a 20 minute ferry ride to Nanaimo where there are also a bus system and many malls and shopping facilities.
