  Description

  We are a family of six living on a beautiful 100-acre property in Yarranbella (NSW 2447), one hour south of Coffs Harbour.
  
  Our home is surrounded by bushland, a crystal-clear rock pool perfect for swimming, big veggie gardens, open paddocks, and fresh country air. We live fully off-grid and offer self-contained accommodation.
  
  We are close to the country towns of Macksville and Bowraville (15 minutes away), and only 25 minutes from the coastal surf towns of Scotts Head and Nambucca Heads, where you’ll find beautiful beaches, cafés, and restaurants. There are also opportunities nearby if you’d like to find a second job.

  About Us
  
  We have four girls aged 8, 6, 3, and 9 months. We also have two friendly dogs and chickens.
  
  We are looking for a Demi Pair (preferably female) with a driver’s licence to join our family and help with daily life. As we are in a rural setting with no immediate public transport, having a licence is important for school runs and getting around.
  
  ⸻
  
  Help Needed (2–4 hours per day)
  
  Tasks may include:
  • Cooking meals
  • Light cleaning and general household help
  • Playing and entertaining the kids
  • Morning and afternoon school runs
  
  We’re looking for someone kind, proactive, and comfortable around children who enjoys a peaceful rural lifestyle.

  What We Offer
  • Your own self-contained, off-grid accommodation
  • Unlimited WiFi
  • All meals included
  • Access to an automatic car for day trips (international licence required)
  • Space to start your own veggie patch if you’d like
  • A peaceful escape from busy city life
  
  If you’re looking to experience off-grid living, enjoy nature, swim in fresh creeks, and be part of a warm family environment, we would love to hear from you.
  
  We are flexible with start dates but ideally hoping to find someone in the next 1–2 months. Please send us a message telling us a little about yourself, your experience (especially with children), and your availability.
  
  We can’t wait to welcome someone who feels like the right fit into our home and share this special place with them.

  Autres infos...

  There is a lot to explore in this area. We live in a place called Yarranbella, which is located in the Nambucca Valley. There is a very strong community feel, as we are part of small country towns, which makes your arrival very welcoming.
  
  A drive through the Nambucca Valley will take you to lots of beautiful beaches, seaside towns, and rural villages, through farmland and rainforests.
  
  With a 40 min drive, you'll find a little town called Bellingen, packed with cafe's and surrounded by rivers and waterfalls, which is well worth visiting.
  
  1 hour north, you'll find Coffs Harbour and if you drive 1 hour south, you'll find Port Macquarie.
  
  With a 25 min drive you'll find little coastal surf towns, including Scotts Head, Nambucca or Valla beach.
  
  We're non smokers and hope you are too :)
