Description
We are located in the Far North of the North Island, between Doubtless Bay and Kaitaia.
We have 3 acres of land, with 2 streams running though, a few established fruit trees .
We have 4 cats.
There is always something in the garden to be chopped, weeded or tidied up. It's never ending!
We are a friendly, sociable family of 5, and we would love you to come and be a part of it.
I work as a teacher aide in a Primary School and my husband works as a solar installer and electrician.
Our eldest is 19 and works full time at the local sports hub. The other 2 are 14 and 11 years old.
We love exploring beaches, camping, and swimming/snorkelling.
Our most favourite thing to do is travel (mum and kids) . Either in New Zealand or overseas.
Plenty of great beaches around here. The closest being Cable Bay, in Doubtless Bay, just a 10 minute drive away.
Matai Bay, our favourite camping spot is just 30 minutes away, and a couple of lovely lakes are all within a 15 minute drive from here.
90 mile Beach is also about 20 minutes away.
Our nearest town Kaitaia is a 15 minute drive.

Hannah was very friendly, polite, caring, and helpful. We couldn't have asked to share our home with anyone better. Any task was not a problem and often used her own initiative. The kids enjoyed doing lots together including reading and playing games.

Mailys was a pleasure to host. The children loved her and enjoyed her teaching french to them. She enjoyed playing with the children, helped to keep the kitchen tidy (without needing to be asked) and loved being in the garden too.

Lynn was lovely, such a happy person to have around the house, and we loved trying her Korean meal she made for us.
She worked well with the tasks set, and looked after and played so well with the children.
Hopefully we will see you again, when we have some nicer weather!

Melanie was very polite and helpful whilst with us for a few days. The children really liked her and asked for days where she had gone. Shame she had to leave us early.
She was a fast, hard worker and would recommend her to anyone.

Meike unfortunately didn't stay for very long, but for the few days we spent together she was very helpful. A very polite, grateful and generous person, who genuinely cared for the children. She made a great effort to play and talk to the children, even if they didn't quite understand each other. Thank you for your few days help, happy travels.

Magdalena was wonderful with all the children. They all adored her, and we're sad when she left after 10 days. Nothing was too much trouble and her smile and enthusiasm was always present. Her help whilst camping was extremely appreciated, and we enjoyed her company. An amazing, trustworthy young lady that I would recommend any day.
