We generally seek someone to help keep children ( boys aged 13 + 10 ) off screens and cook meals for the family. Ideally, we are looking for someone who is sporty, comfortable doing their own thing and socialising with the family.
If you are into sports or sports coaching, that would be a real bonus for us.
We look for help and support across the following areas;
1) You can cook simple dishes and be happy to do so two or three times a week. We find that food and cooking work very well for cultural exchange.
2) You must be comfortable with children and able to lead activities with them. We require some help keeping them off screens. Example activities include bike rides, football, outdoor games, trampolining, Arts and crafts, walking in the countryside, board and card games, etc.
3) Ad hoc and small regular tasks in the house, such as tidying, cleaning, putting things away, etc., and also gardening if you are interested.
We consider people 23 and older - we have no upwards age limit.
For privacy reasons, we do not post photos of our family and home, but we are happy to give you a full video tour as part of the interview process.
We are a family of four (German/ Irish/ British) living in a small town in Northamptonshire.
Our boys are aged 10 and 13, they are both healthy, school-going, and fun-loving.
We also have two cats.
We are an English-speaking house but can also speak German (native) and French.
We live in a large period property with a large garden in a beautiful part of the country.
The area has fabulous wildlife and is located a couple of miles from a shopping centre, which includes shops, restaurants, and a cinema.
Bus and train services serve local runs and London and North/ Midlands.
The house is within walking distance of the town centre, with various shops and cafes.
We can offer you a bedroom with a shared bathroom and the opportunity to be part of our family. We can also offer the use of a bike, and if you are a confident driver over 25, we can put you on our car insurance.Tipos de ajuda e oportunidades de aprendizado
