  Descrição

  Current update: we only have capacity for solo female bodied workaways (any gender) in their mid 20s due to the family dynamics we have. Ideally you'd like to stay at least a month and can handle ADHD in kids and adults and don't shy away from chaos - we do try to live as calmly as possible with an entire ADHD household.
  
  ----
  
  We are an inclusive and queer family of four (me/eRinn 37, Rachel 41, Isaac, 13 and Clara, 11). Our home overlooks the sea in a quiet family focused cul de sac neighbourhood. We are finding we'd like more capacity to spend time having fun and relaxing, camping (we haven't gone yet) road trips, making cool crafts and meals, exploring nature and socialising, so we are looking to share the effort and rewards.
  
  We have a room available for a solo Workawayer interested in joining our family and helping with tasks like cooking, meal prep, kid adjacent projects/activities. I'm (eRinn) disabled/retired with endo and basically need extra assistance creating family meals and doing all the practical things (my mind still works, most days).
  
  We are trying to become more active as we have recently drastically reduced screen time and sugar - with bikes, scooters, pool/gym memberships and beach/playground trips. We have a lot going on therefore don't have the time to teach people how to clean or work autonomously, it may not be the ideal fit for everyone but if you enjoy cooking then please come visit? We are all interestingly fussy in our own ways and working on this with larger more inclusive meal plans instead of a total free for all.. and just consistency with cleaning.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  We would be sharing family meals and board games some or most evenings. We are looking for someone excited to join our family dynamic around food and authentic relating. I'm also usually home due to chronic health stuff, and would love company doing tasks like DIY/ crafts and house organisation.

  Ajuda

  We are specifically looking for a workaway with some life experience, who consider themselves diligent, autonomous and showing initiative. We use Slack mainly, and Meister task and expect around 15-20hrs of help per week total.
  
  Basic cleaning duties, meal prep, laundry/dishes/vacuum if needed, spending time with Clara and Isaac - playing darts, riding bikes, walking to parks, cleaning rooms, etc. It is important to us that you feel confident and comfortable in your ability to perform these tasks without supervision.
  
  Hours are pretty flexible, if everyone is healthy, happy and fed then success has been reached. We do like to hang out as the kids are pretty emotionally needy and stuff.

  Acomodação

  There is a room with queen bed and desk which would be available for use. It is light and clean, we may need more storage options but there is a closet. Wifi, heatpump is usually on in the sun soaked lounge complete with cats napping. The house is generally pretty quiet and calm, we don't always watch TV and are actively limiting screen use (dopamine regulation, neurodiverse household) but we have access to a lot of movies and sometimes streaming services. You can usually hear birds in the nearby trees.
  
  Food is something we are working on providing more consistently, which is where we need your help. We try to cook from scratch often, and struggle to feed fussy kids. We'd like more capacity to cook and enjoy adult foods! You would be welcome to prepare food for yourself during the day, within consideration of other family members, and it would generally be an expectation to offer help each night for meal prep or cooking as I am disabled and Rachel works fulltime, so this is a task we value highly.
  
  We eat fresh wholefoods, without diet limitations. We are teaching the kids about nutrition and balanced plates to help their brain development. We love pasta, nachos, poke bowls, roast veges and nice sauces. We all struggle to put in the effort to create food. Sometimes it's messy.
  
  We have family meals in the evening, and breakfast foods available. Lunch is either a free for all or leftovers, with the opportunity to help me prep fancy as raw treats like cheesecakes and bliss balls. We are working on larger meal prep to freeze dinner meals, now we are shifting to more of a routine in the household.

  Algo mais...

  We are queer, inclusive, body positive. Would love to do more art stuff. Radical self love is important to us. I enjoy qi gong and mindfulness, playing handpan, hand percussion and Rachel has decks (digi and vinyl) I'm excited to watch her use when we have more free time!
  
  With the beach, skate park, estuary and shops nearby, one can access pretty much everything one could need, but we also have two vehicles and a bus stop close by.
