TASKS UPDATE:
I'm looking for a visitor during the last week of July!
This is what I'll need help with:
1) light renovations (painting walls)
2) disposing of unwanted household items and light furniture pieces (taking them to the charity shop, throwing them in the bin, selling them on eBay)
3) light cleaning
4) uncluttering my electronic devices to create more storage (this one is optional)
*************************
WHO WE ARE
We're a single parent and an 8 year old building intentional community. We live in a quieter corner of Berlin-Schöneberg/Wilmersdorf, an area in west Berlin that gives you easy access to cultural spots as well as parks and urban nature. Grunewald and Wannsee are relatively close, and we live right by the U7, which takes you directly to Hermannplatz and other stops in Neukölln. We live on our own right now but have a large network of chosen family and friends who form part of our lives. Most of us are people of colour and lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer or transgender, and involved in arts or activism of some kind. Due to Covid-19 and being abroad, we're socially distancing but stay in regular contact with the fam via zoom and occasional hangs in the park, playground or in our backyard. With us, you have the best of both worlds - quiet times and privacy and community.
Your tasks vary according to what is needed right now.
In addition to your workaway duties, you will help out around the house as fully as any adult flatmate would. Shared tasks include cooking, cleaning, laundry, shopping, and other errands. These tasks are not included in your reciprocity hours.

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
You would experience being part of something bigger. Care collectives bring us closer to social justice: to a world where parents stay in community, where adults and children are in community with each other, where children have abundant access to people of many generations and experiences. They provide support and practise interdependence in a context where there is often a significant lack of support for parents (family not in the country, no partner etc.). And they let folks who may not otherwise have this opportunity experience and gain skills for hanging out with babies.
You would experience living in one of the amazing world cities out there. The place has all the culture, art and scenes you could wish for. Its social movements - from queer and trans politics to Black Lives Matter - are inspiring.

*This doesn't currently apply* (I mainly need help with renovations, see above). It still contains useful info, so I will leave it up!
***********
You would help out with the kid and/or other tasks for a maximum of 25 h a week. In addition, you would be expected to chip in with the chores independently and self-directedly as a leading member of the household.
THINGS FOR HELPERS OF NEW PARENTS TO KNOW
- Small kids & new parents are fragile creatures. Please respect our attempts at domestic hygiene and do what you can to stay healthy. Bring weather-appropriate clothes, especially in winter (it can get way below 0 degreed). Please wash your hands first thing when you walk in, before touching the baby.
- On any given date you might spend your time feeding the kid, playing with the kid while I'm cooking, stretching, bathing or getting some work or life admin done. You might take the kid to the park, or you might play with them at home while I'm running some errands outside.
- Do things that need doing (but be mindful of your own boundaries and capacity): If there is a stack of dirty dishes, load them into the dishwasher, if you're the last person up in the evening and you've had a late-night snack, wipe down the surfaces and take out the rubbish, if it’s lunch time, heat up food, if there’s laundry, take it downstairs, take out the recycling when you go out. The point is, just dig in and help out, don’t wait to be directed. I'll pay for food, rent and bills but you'll be expected to chip in with shopping, cooking and cleaning as an independently motivated helper and flatmate.

Algo más...
Allergy advice: I don't have pets and am a non-smoker. There's no carpet. We try to be scent free, so please don't bring any soap, hair or body products that have perfume or chemicals in them.
Close to the subway and buses that connect you instantly to the downtown. Lots of groceries and shops nearby. Walkable to cafes, libraries, community centres, public swimming pools and parks. Forests and lakes are within cycling distance.
