Description
Hello,

Me (Bieke) and my husband (Frank) are together since 2009. In 2012, we had a really nice and lovely daughter (she got 6 in december 2018) and we got married in 2015. Since october 2015, we sold my husbands house and bought a new house together in Wachtebeke (near the Netherlands).

Because there is already a little bit of wellness here (pool, hammam, sauna and infra-red cabine), we would like to enlarge the wellness (already done with a jacuzzi) and would like to make a business of it, so that people can rent it to relax. Also, we have a big garden that we are still working in.

We have 1 cat (that is A LOT outside), 1 small dog (Malteser), 10 chickens and 2 peacocks.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We live just next to the border of the Netherlands. It's a very nice neighbourhood with a lot of nature. Ghent and Antwerp is only 30 minutes. We have a bike for you that you can use all the time.
Because we have a little daughter, it is easier for you to learn the dutch language. I think it's also nice for her to see a lot of cultures and languages.

Aide
Because we still both work full-time (Bieke in the week, Frank night shifts) we are looking for someone who can help us with the gardening (weeding), mow the grass, cleaning, cooking...

We are looking forward to have a really good time together.

We just counted the days untill Lola came back! She is really really special.

We are both just so relaxed when she is our family. You don't have to ask anything, she sees and feels everything. She is very mature and very very good with children. But also in the household and in the garden, she is a real treasure!!

Bieke and Frank were excellent hosts.
I had a beautiful 2weeks stay at their place and I really appreciate the trust they gave me; they had holidays so they weren't at home, but they had no problem with me staying and working without supervision, thanks for that!! :))
The job was fair and chilled. I could choose to either work in the morning or… read more

It was great to do volunteering with this kind family. There were variety of works to do from cooking, gardening taking care of the wellness and fixing things.

I definitely recommend Bieke and Frank. They are a good-hearted, kind, easygoing family. I loved cooking and creating dinner for part of the work..
