  Description

  My husband, Cassian and I have three children (a boy aged 12, a girl aged 10, and a boy aged 78). And a small cockapoo dog. Cassian is the CEO of a tech company. I was a doctor and am now an artist.
  
  We spend our summers in a beautiful house in South Devon on the banks of the River Dart. The house has a joining Shepards hut with a full kitchen, an en-suite bathroom with a shower, underfloor heating, electricity, WiFi and its own outdoor space where our Workaway can stay.
  
  We are looking for someone to help us look after the children in the mornings, so I can go to my studio, which is 10 minutes walk down the road from the house. And to help with the laundry.
  
  We will pay money as is compliant with au pair regulations.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We are all English speakers.
  This is a wonderful opportunity to explore the historic setting of rural Devon. Within and around the village there are many beautiful walks within walking distance. A public boat takes you across the river to the famous Agatha Christie estate where many of her books were written. And a public boat ride down river adjoins the village to the historical town of Dartmouth with many Tudor buildings and even older castles.from Dartmouth the national trust coastal path runs both ways along the coast, looking out to sea.

  Aide

  I am looking for help with childcare, Laudrey. To help from 9 am, 5 hours a day on weekdays. To help give my seven-year-old breakfast and play with him. The older two are fairly independent. To take the kids to the playground. So I can go to my studio and do some work.
  And to do the laundry- put the kids' dirty clothes in the washing machine, hang them out to dry. Fold the clean cloths and put them back in the drawers.
  There is one week when the children are at camp. And another week when their grandparents are staying. In these weeks when we don't need child care help, we'd like the workaway to have the specific job of clearing away supper, doing the washing up after supper, and laying out the breakfast for the following morning. Plus laundry (as above).
  
  The rest of the time, the days and the weekends are yours to explore and spend as you please.
