==============
Looking for help immediately.
We are moving out if our house May 31st so will not be able to host after this. As well as below I need help with moving out of our house and everything involved with that so would live to have a couple where one person is handy with DIY basics etc.
==============
Please no requests for anything further than 6 weeks in advance.
Please note:
I prefer having people 21 years +
You must have a good level of English so that you can communicate at conversational level.
I'm a 40yr old Irish lass with two kids 12 and 14yrs old. Divorced from their Dad and he lives abroad. I moved back to Ireland 7 yrs ago and we're living in the very scenic and popular tourist destination of Killarney. I'm a physical therapist and work from a clinic beside the house.
Kids will be in school Mondays - Fridays so mostly need help for when they come home from school at 2.30pm and 4pm although help would be needed from a little earlier to prepare lunch/dinner so it is ready for when they arrive in from school. My schedule can vary on some days though so I need someone who is open to being flexible.
They need help with their homework and then just to spend time with them playing, being creative and having as much fun as possible!
My hours can vary a little in the clinic but mostly:
I plan to work in the clinic Tuesdays and Thursday from 4pm - 9pm and Wednesday and Fridays 8.30am - 2pm.
The most important thing for me is to have someone that genuinely loves kids and wants to play and engage with them. This task rates highest above anything else! Someone who is happy to be active, play soccer, go to the park but is also happy to sit in on rainy days and create arts and craft projects, play board games or lego, play music or basically anything to make the day a little fun! I'm also looking for general help around the home with basic cooking and cleaning.
My kids are older now and often busy doing their own thing especially in the summer but I'd still like someone who can engage and hang out with them.
Happy to host couples or 2 friends also who will share a room and share duties between them.
Summer:
I have a large yard and garden which needs help with especially in the summer months, which is why I would prefer to have a couple to help with both kids, and garden and house duties. (summer months) There are many tasks that need to be done here such as mowing the lawn, strimming overgrown grass, weeding, cutting back hedges etc. Everything is quite easy and simple if you don't have experience, it just takes time which I don't have!
We're a very easy going and flexible family who have hosted workaways and for years and have been workaways ourselves so it's a fairly laid back atmosphere.
We love the outdoors and being active but also on rainy days to sit around playing card games and chill out :)
Also we have 2 pet rabbits, so you need to be ok with 2 fluff balls running around the house at times :)
We have 2 mini hamsters also.

We are in an excellent location in Killarney town.
Algo mais...
We live in Killarney which is a town and a tourist hub surrounded by beautiful lakes and mountains in southern Ireland. It's also close to other popular areas such as Cork, Limerick, and Tralee so its a great base to see some of the most popular areas in the south and west of Ireland on your days off. I use workaway myself also to travel so I love to meet new people and find out their stories also. You'll have a private room in our family home and we're located centrally in the town.

Once I went back to France it didn't feel like home anymore.
It felt really good acting like a child again palying with Callum and Naoise.

I hope to see… read more
