Sandra worked hard at the jobs she was assigned and was a polite, friendly and laid back member of the household for the few days she was here. She is an excellent house guest and I would highly recommend her.

I had a lovely time staying with the family, they were all very kind and friendly.
My job was to weed part of the garden, and it was very rewarding to see the progress made every day.
The meals were excellent, they're all very good cooks!
I really enjoyed spending these few days with them, and good luck with the garden!

Maude came to stay at a busy time as we organised a house move. She was an amazing help: packing, cleaning, organising, painting. She was always calm and good humoured, and completed all the tasks she was given. She is a laid back person with a great sense of humour who will easily fit into any household. Thanks again Maude :)

Janina stayed with us for about 10 days. She worked hard at her tasks and did a great job with each of them. She was an excellent and considerate house guest, and if she saw something that needed doing she would pitch in and help out. A great quality in a busy home!
