  We are looking for childcare help for our two children ages 4 and 7, with some associated help around our house. Help preparing a meal now and then would be a huge bonus, but not necessary!

  Autres infos...

  Salt Spring Island is a beautiful place, with three small villages, many beaches and hiking trails, and lots of travelers. There is bus service around the island, and our farm is only 2km from the nearest town. Our farm is beside Bullock Lake, and we have a dock that can be enjoyed during time off.
  
  Our farm is a busy place, with 12 people living on site and 3-4 farm staff. There are many opportunities to socialize, but plenty of space for quiet as well. We have an open, friendly, and inclusive community, and encourage anyone who lives on the farm to feel like part of the family.
