    Description

    We are an easygoing, musical family with 2 young children (aged 9 & 8). We love learning about other cultures and look forward to providing you with somewhere safe, comfortable, warm and welcoming to help you expand on your cultural experience.

    Our neigbourhood is peaceful, safe and surrounded by lovely nature.
    We love to go to parks, have picnics, go to the beach, watch movies, be creative, sing, dance and have fun.

    I work in the children’s entertainment industry as a children’s show and songwriter and produce and perform in musical stage shows for kids. I also organise and run craft workshops for children at events and shopping centres. My husband (Will) is a 3D animator/industrial designer and sound engineer. He is also a musician and performs in his own band and also in some of the kids shows alongside me and our other performers.

    We are looking for a well educated , responsible, warm, friendly and proactive person who loves kids and genuinely enjoys playing games and hanging out with them .. and could help a little bit around the house then we’d LOVE to invite you to join our family here on the Sunshine Coast, QLD.

    We are even happy to host 2 x sisters or friends if you are happy to share a room together (queen bed).

    Being a host family allows us to enjoy a cultural exchange with someone as well as share some quality time together and balance life’s commitments. We would welcome someone that would love to become part of a young family, join us on any outings and is happy to help with our energetic kids and keeping the house tidy. Our kids would absolutely love a BIG sister or 2!

    Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

    We welcome someone from another country into our family to experience differences in culture, language, family life, food, scenery and more!

    We are a fun, easy going, musical family located in the Sunshine Coast, QLD and we would love for you to join us on any family outings and experience our Australian lifestyle!

    Our kids would absolutely love a BIG sister (or 2!) and we would like for our kids to learn from you about your culture and language and for you to be a great role model for them and of course you will also learn so much from them :-) If English is not your first language they will be great to practice on as our kids are quite talkative!

    Joining our family and helping to take care of and entertain our children will help you build on your confidence, patience, organisation skills, compassion, empathy and more, all whilst experiencing an Australian way of life.

    Our home is located in a peaceful area, surrounded by nature and is close to public transport (buses), beaches, cafes, restaurants, shopping centres, cinema, parks, waterfalls, Australia Zoo & more.

    You can easily walk to beautiful nature/park areas or ride the bike down to the beach, go shopping, watch the sunset, go for a bush walk, or join some locals and head off on the walking tracks to stay fit. We also have some weights at our home should you like to do extra exercise and training and a pool.
