  Description

  Hi! We are a family of four (Mom + Dad, 2 kiddos age 5+7). Room offered in our spacious, recently built house with stunning mountain views. We're hoping to welcome someone into our home in return for spending time with our 7 year old son who is home schooled. We're looking for some help with child care and learning, and you can discover beautiful Revelstoke, BC. We can help you get out to hike, bike, paddle, climb, ski or just relax and enjoy the views and we'd love to introduce you to the fantastic community in Revy! Even better if you speak another language (aside from English) and/or have teaching or child care experience. A longer term arrangement would be our preference.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  Explore the beautiful BC wilderness surrounding Revelstoke and be a part of an amazing small mountain town community! We get out for family fun days as often as we can and as part of our family you'd be welcome to join us on our adventures. We can help you find equipment if you want to hike, bike, camp, paddle, climb, dirt bike, ski or whatever - most things are available for rent in town, and we can share our local knowledge of places to visit and things to see and do (so many gems to find in the area!).
  We have a 'townie' pedal bike you can use to get around - it is the preferred mode of transport in Revy in the warmer months.
  
  We try to live and eat pretty clean and minimize the chemicals and nasty stuff found in food, cleaning and beauty products etc. We're working towards a small homestead type lifestyle (ish) and we're happy to share our thoughts, knowledge, recipes, ingredients and anything else if you're interested.
  
  There are lots of fun, creative ways to volunteer in the community and many friends to meet - we can point you to some fantastic local organizations that always welcome help.

  Aide

  Hi! We live in beautiful Revelstoke, BC and I am hoping to offer someone a room in our lovely home in return for spending some time with my 7 year old son who is home schooled. Very flexible with how this could work - the basic idea is that you get a room in our home, and we have someone to hang out with our son for 2 days a week - teach him a new language, cooking, some basic chores, play, craft, read, visit the library etc. No formal lesson plan or structure, but we'd all need to be clear about the expectations for everyone. Very important that it's a good fit for all involved! Outside of that you are free to work, play, and explore as you wish!
  
  Myself and my partner are in our 40's and we work hard and play hard. We both run small businesses from home. We love getting outside and are excited to show our kids the world, and all the fun stuff to do out there. It's really important that you are a good fit for our little family and everyone will need to be comfortable with the arrangements and with each other. The kids are 5 and 7 years old and life gets busy, chaotic and loud sometimes. It's also a lot of fun and there are some wonderful moments to be had. We try to live and eat pretty clean and minimize the chemicals and nasty stuff found in food, cleaning and beauty products etc. and we'd expect anyone in our home to be respectful of that.
  
  Details are negotiable so please get in touch if you think you might like to experience our amazing town and would like to join our family for a while?! Ideal if you speak another language (aside from English) and/or have teaching or child care experience. A longer term arrangement would be our preference.

  Hébergement

  We have a recently built, bright, beautiful, spacious home in Revelstoke. You would have your own (queen bed) room and a shared toilet/bathroom in the main family area of the house. You would share a kitchen and living area with myself, my partner and the kiddos.
  
  Both my partner and myself work from home, so we will be close by to support and supervise. We are a family home, not a party pad. We keep a clean and tidy home and we'd expect you to do the same. Strictly no pets and no smoking.
  
  We are approx 4 km from town centre - you can walk or ride a bike to town in about 20 min in summer, and we are close to the local bus route. We are close to the winter bus route to the ski hill, or it's a 5 minute drive away. Parking available for max. 1 regular vehicle. There are stunning walking trails from the back yard. We're looking for a respectful single person to join our busy, bustling (and sometimes loud!) little household.
