    Hello.
    We are a warm and welcoming family of 3 living on a beautiful island corfu, Greece.
    We are Julia (39 y) and Matthew (41 y) and our son Henry (2.5 years). Julia is German and works mainly from home as a project manager. German being her mother tongue and she is also fluent in English, which is the family language. Matthew is from New Zealand and works as a carpenter with English being his only language.
    We have 3 adorable cats living with us, which are mainly outside and are well taken care of.

    We are looking for a responsible and caring individual to join us in our home. We are seeking someone who can help with daily household tasks, mainly cooking meals and assisting with general cleaning & tidying around the house. Playtime with Henry is welcome but not mandatory.

    The work will be 4-5 hours per day, leaving plenty of time for you to explore the local area and enjoy your stay. In exchange for your help, we offer comfortable accommodation in our home, along with all meals and the necessary amenities to ensure you have everything you need.

    We have a small family car that is used for trips to Corfu town and to the beach (VW Polo manual) and a working Van that is only used by Matthew. We offer to share the car whenever it's not needed. If you like to be fully independent a scooter hire is recommended (12-15€/day).

    We are looking for someone who is trustworthy, loves children, and is willing to become part of our family during their stay. If you’re a responsible and kind-hearted person who enjoys cooking, spending time with toddlers, and keeping a home tidy, we would love to hear from you!

    Looking forward to welcoming you into our home!

  • Algo más...

    Algo más...

    We both love to live in a clean and tidy environment, that makes living with a toddler quite challenging :D
    We spend our freetime entirly with Henry, mostly hanging at the beach, swimming, going out with a boat (join us!) or having dinner with friends.
    We live 2 min by car and 15 min walking distance (downhill) from the beach Agios Georgios, but also drive often to Arillas Beach. You can enjoy a beautiful and stunning sunset every single day.
    Ausgust and September is still super summer here and even October we still go to the beach. On rainy days you can sit on the porch that is super protected from the rain and enjoy some tranquil time.

    Once a week / every 10 days we drive to Corfu town to get all shopping done and enjoy some "city" vibes.

    In Arillas area there is loads of activities and events going on such as ecstatic dance , music concerts , yoga classes , cacao ceremonies , soudhealings , singing circles, drumming circles and much more.

    There's also lovely cafes and restaurants on the beach and around as the area is beautiful to go on walks and hikes. We are happy to guide you around.
