Description
I am a mother of seven kids who just needs help in daily routine, with cleaning, kitchen work and helping out with the younger ones. Kids attend school for 6-7 hours per day and help is mostly wanted in mornings and then afternoons during weekdays, but with very flexible hours when needed. I also need help on weekends, also very flexible hours. (then all the kids are at home and life is busy.) NOTE that I am very flexible with working hours and which days I need help and I can be very flexible with your travel plans while you are here.
I can only accept girls for this project.

I have seven kids, age from 6 to 16 years, and they can teach you Icelandic, all kinds of children games and how to have fun with all kinds of unimportant things. We are located in the capital city of Iceland, Reykjavik, so there is a good chance to travel around in the city and out from the city.

Aide
I need help with all kinds of things during the day. I mostly need someone to help with keeping the kitchen nice (mostly dishwasher and keeping kitchen usable and clean). I also need some help with keeping the main area in the house nice, along with some light cleaning 1x a week. I sometimes need help with babysitting or just someone to stay around so I can take care of other things in the house, along with just having fun in a happy and energetic household with fun and lively kids.
NOTE that I am very flexible with working hours and which days I need help and I can be very flexible with your travel plans while you are here.

Laissé par l'hôte pour le workawayer (Serena)

Serena is a lovely girl that spent a month in our home. She did great, even though she had a little difficulties with english, but always found a way to make things work and be understandable. We loved having her around and we really hope she enjoys her further stay in Iceland. I really recommend Serena as a workaway :)

I only spent a month with this amazing family, it was my first workaway experience and they allowed me to grow and learn new things about this amazing country. They are a caring, kind, sometimes wild but always fun family! The children are fantastic, cheerful and very funny, they had a lot of patience with my terrible English, but they always… read more

I spent just under 2 months with this lovely family in Reykjavik and really enjoyed my time there! Lots of different personalities to get to know, but a big thing all the family has in common is a good sense of humour, an easy-going nature and a friendliness which is really nice when you're in a place for the first time :)

We really loved having Rebekah staying with us. She is very loving and caring and did a great job. She really was a great addition to the household and helped out in every way that we needed and even way more. The time that she stayed went by too fast and it was really hard to say goodbye. We love Rebekah, we miss her a lot and we would welcome… read more

I absolutely loved my time with this family! From day one, I felt completely a part of family life. It really is so special how quickly I felt at home and I think that is credit to such a warm and welcoming family! Each of the kids (and teenagers!!) are so unique and I loved getting to know each of them individually. The tasks expected of you are… read more

Rebecca was a great addition to our family. She is loving, caring, did everything I needed from her and more, took great care of the kids and overall is a great person. She stayed for longer than we planned at the start but that just gave us more time with her. I would love to have her back to our family anytime! We miss her :)

Miro was a great addition to our family for few weeks this summer. She came with a very short notice, but that did not matter at all. She did everything I asked for, even more in some cases, and did it well. She has a good presence and it was really easy to have her around in the home. It was always easy to ask her to help around, with everything… read more

Verónica stayed with us for few days in July. She planned to stay longer but had to change her plans with a short notice, but everything worked out good. She was nice to be around, did everything I asked her to do and I would invite her again if she wanted to be back. :)

Rahel and Clara stayed with our family for 2 very good weeks. They were a great addition to the family, very nice to be around, took great care of the tasks that they were given and always with a smile and positive attitude. We really liked to have them around and missed them when they continued their travel around Iceland.

We stayed for two weeks in may with Johanna and her big family at Reykjavik. It was really spontaneous, because we planned to go to another host. Just two weeks before, plans changed and we were searching for a last-minute host. Even though Johanna is normally hosting just one girl, she agreed to take care of both of us :)
The family welcomed us… read more

Lea stayed with my family for almost 9 months, and to be honest, she is just great! Her main tasks were to help out with household (mainly kitchen, cooking and some cleaning) and help out with a handful of kids, that need a lot of attention.

I spent my last two months with this lovely family. The children are active and really cute. The oldest ones are a great help for everyone. Especially Lilja (the only girl) does a lot to support her mother and in this case also to help you. My work was mainly cleaning the house but I also spent a lot of time with the kids.

Mara is a great, lovely, honest and nice girl that stayed at our family for a month. She was always willing to help with whatever I needed help with. She is great with the kids, and a great cook too :) (The kids loved her pizza´s) :)
