  Description

  We are looking for a minimum stay of three months. We host females only and it would be a benefit to you, if you had a car. We are looking for a mature reliable girl who has experience with children. It is important to us that you can be flexible with your time. We are a family of four looking for a big sister and someone who can help around the house. Two adults and 2 girls. Our youngest is 6 and our oldest is 9. Our youngest will finish school at 13.30 and the older girl at 14.30. They are very fun loving children and love to play, talk and be entertained. We live in North Cork in a beautiful town called Fermoy. Fermoy has many attractions close by and has easy access to all cities. Plenty of exploring to be had. We are interested in music, travel, socialising and having fun. We have a piano and guitar in the house and listen to all types of music.
  We own a campervan and like to spend time travelling in this during the holiday season. We enjoy the outdoors, being by the coast or simply a trip around the woods, or an afternoon in the park.
  We live in a semi detached house in a quiet estate with a dog called Dougie. He is a very relaxed and much loved dog. Although we do smoke it's an electronic cigarette.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  This will give workaways time to improve their English speaking. There are also options of taking classes locally. They will have time to explore the beauty of Ireland and experience living with an Irish family and the responsibility of running a home and caring for children. Our town resides on the river Blackwater and has many beautiful surrounding countryside. We want our workaway to be part of our family and to make themselves at home in our house. We hope to learn from them as much as they learn from us.

  Aide

  I will require someone to help with the children, and also help around the house with household duties, keeping my home clean and tidy. Gardening skills will be a plus too. I will also need help with childminding, and occasionally may need you to take the children to and from school. We like to take an evening to ourselves once a week so we will ask you to babysit. This will be decided in advance. I love to cook so I am happy to do this myself. My husband is a teacher so finishes work at 3.30 but occasionally works late so we will need you to be flexible and work around our schedule. A car would be great as it allows you to travel more freely, and would be an advantage. There are plenty of international students in Fermoy and a lot of opportunities to meet up with others students.

If you are the type of person who likes to spend alot of time on your own then this isn't the house for you. We are a very warm and loving family. We love to listen to music, we have a piano in our house and my husband plays the saxophone. We also have guitars and African drums which we rarely use.
