Program Details
You will either be staying in the main house with us in your own room, or in our caravan. You will be helping us out with our energetic, fun, mischievous big 3 year old.
We (Grace and Johan) live in the main house with our lovely son.
We are looking for one or two people who can come and help us on our property and help out with our son.
Activities & Shift
As we will have recently moved we have loads of organising and unpacking to do. We're flexible with when hours are done but would arrange with any volunteers for help on days we're off work and evenings. Tasks would be helping organise and move in and entertaining our son so we can be productive.
Rules
We expect people to be respectful of the space they are staying in, of us, and of the property. And we will of course be respectful of you. We have a young child, so we like to keep a peaceful environment and have quiet nights. So if you are hoping to party this is probably not the place for you. We expect you to do the hours you have agreed to, but no more. We don't want smokers.
