Descripción
Kia ora! We’re a fun-loving family of five with three energetic boys, all aged six and under.
We’ve recently settled into beautiful Papamoa after a few years living off the grid on a small island and a couple of winters escaping to Bali. Our home is just a 2-minute drive (or a 10-minute walk) from the beach, and we spend as much time as we can surfing, fishing, boating, and getting out on family adventures. The boys spend their summers in the pool, down at the beach, or cruising around on their bikes/skateboards! They're also into playing card / boardgames and lego.
On weekends, when the weather plays ball, we are generally up for boat or beach missions. Plus if you’re into surfing—Jess is always keen for a surf buddy before work!
What We’re Looking For:
We’re after someone who genuinely loves being around kids and is happy to blend into family life—more like a big sister/Aunt vibes than just a helper. The role involves a mix of:
• Hanging out with the kids and helping with their routines / tidying
• General household tasks (cooking, cleaning, tidying, gardening, etc.)
We appreciate someone who can take initiative, go with the flow, and doesn’t need a checklist to feel at home. If you’re relaxed, outdoorsy, and keen to join a laid-back, adventurous Kiwi family, we’d love to have you!
We travel a bit, so often last-minute Workaways suit us best—generally stays of 1–3 weeks work well.
If this sounds like your kind of place, get in touch—we’d love to hear from you!

It’s a fun and mellow way of life here in Papamoa. Beach is close by and nature walks a short drive away. We are a pretty slow paced family and enjoy a laidback lifestyle.
