Experience Sami culture and help with my daughter in Karasjok, Norway

  Description

  I´m a 33 year old single mother to a 4 year old girl. I need someone to watch her while I work during the day. Sometimes I also need help with her during the evening. Your main task will be to play with her and do different activities together. I also need help with cooking healthy meals and some help around the house. We eat mostly whole foods and cook from scratch (not vegeterian). Big plus if you live a healthy lifestyle and enjoy being outdoors. I limit my daughter´s screen time and focus on spending time outside, creating stuff, drawing, baking, playing etc. Big pluss if you´re creative and into crafting.
  
  My daughter is a happy, curious and social girl who loves having workawayers here. She communicates quite well in english and her english is improving every day. I prefer someone (female) who can stay at least 1 month. I can host single mothers with maximum of 1 child. I teach sami language online and work from home, so I will always be around if needed while you´re watching my daughter.
  
  Note: this is a small town, and most days there’s not much going on here. You have to be independent. Being outgoing is a plus. Getting to know people here can lead to many great authentic experiences you wouldn’t get to experience as a tourist.

  Autres infos...

  Karasjok is a small town with 2500 inhabitants and is in the northern most county in Norway. During summer we have the midnight sun and daylight 24/7, while winters are cold and dark with a big chance of seeing the northern lights. We don´t see the sun between end of november and end of january, but we still have some daylight for a couple of hours. Between november and february it can be as cold as -30 C. Winter is perfect for activities like snowmobile riding, ice fishing, cross country skiing (you can borrow skiis at the local library for free) and dogsledding. During summer you can sunbathe, swim, pick berries, go hiking, paddle down the river with a SUP or cayak, fish etc. We have several beautiful beaches with a river flowing through Karasjok.
  
  I have a Siberian Husky you can take on walks, skiing and hiking if you´d like (the dog lives with my brother).
  
  We´re about 4 hours away from North Cape and about 5 hours away from Finland´s biggest ski resort in Levi. 1,5 hour from Inari, 3 hours from Saariselkä and 2 hours from Ivalo. Closest airport is Lakselv (1 h away), Ivalo - Finland (2 h away) and Alta (2,5 h away).
  
  You can reach Karasjok by taking a bus from the airport. Make sure you check if there are any buses going to Karasjok the day you plan to come.
