Description
*Looking for an au pair from July 2024 and MINIMUM 3 months - preference will be given to someone able to stay 6 months or even longer*

I'm a single mum to 3-year-old twin boys with developmental delay. All my family is in Denmark so I'm looking for someone who can help out approximately 30 hours per week. In exchange you will get your own furnished room, all bills included, meals with the family and pocket money.

You will be assisting with improving the boys development such as improving speech, learning daily life tasks using a play based approach. You will also help prepare and clean up after meals. I also need help with bath time and sometimes excursions out of the house such as the local park and playground, doctor's appointments, going to the swimming pool etc. You need to have experience with children from the age of 3, current first aid, working with children check and contactable references.

Every 2nd week we have a speech therapist and an OT coming to work with the boys which will also be a part of your job to attend in order to best be able to help them with their development on a daily basis. This would be a great opportunity to learn for someone interested in becoming a speech therapist or OT.

Apart from helping with the kids, you would also cook healthy dinner (we are vegetarian) 2 nights per week, house cleaning, laundry, help with our pets (dog and cat), some gardening and other odd jobs as needed so it is important that you would be willing to do this.

If you speak Danish it would be a huge plus, but at this point I'm also open to native English speakers that have relevant work experience with toddlers. If you're from Norway, Sweden or Germany with good English, we would also love to hear from you.

Please send me a message if you are interested in joining our little family and experiencing an Australian adventure🇦🇺🐨🦘🌴🌞

IMPORTANT: Please note there is a MINIMUM stay of 3 months and we can only host 1 workawayer at the time.

We live in Meningie, South Australia. It is a beautiful little town by the beautiful Lake Albert. You can see the lake from our house and stroll or run along the walk/ bike path right into town, which is only about 1km away. Park Run is on at 8am every Saturday morning, which is a good opportunity to meet some locals. People are very friendly here and there are good walking trails in the area and lots of birds, so great for nature lovers. Meningie also has a cafe & bar, a supermarket, pub, coffee shop, bakery, 2nd hand antique shops, a takeaway, motels, caravan park and a gym etc.
