Program Details

the yoga cantre is the priority when courses are running, then if there are overflow hours to be done it will be in the family home with household chores and help with kids.

The 3 boys are lovely just want someone to encourage them to do more outdoor activities in a pro active kind way and give me some space to get on with my office work! They are 13, 10 & 8yrs.

Our deal is 5hours x 5 days with all meals included (we often take turns in cooking but I provide al the food) Then if you want to join in the yoga classes I just ask for a straight swap of the hours eg. A 1 hour class is 1 more hour work exchange.

Activities & Shift

Help is needed in the mornings usually, most evenings are free, after kids are fed and watered nothing else to do after 6:30pm have your own free time.
You will be able to join in all the yoga classes if you want as mentioned before for some extra help. There is one evening class you may be asked to look after the kids whilst I teach in the next door Yoga room.

Rules

We are a NON-smoking, NO alcohol and NO drugs strictly. If you do any of this on the property you will not be asked to leave.
Unfortunately due to rising living costs we may have to consider asking for contributions towards food.
