THANK YOU EVERYONE WE HAVE FOUND SOMEONE NOW :D We are a family of four. Sophie (mum) is a marine biologist on maternity leave. Planning to go back to work 3 days a week in July 2019. In October this will increase to 4 days a week. Brendan (dad) is an electrician and sometimes has to work away from home. Robin (turning 4 in Oct) is a loving, sensitive toddler who likes climbing, trains, drawing and music. Freya (turning 1 in Oct) is a super smiley happy baby. We love to travel, Brendan and Sophie have travelled and worked together in Scotland, French Polynesia, New Zealand, Australia and Thailand. We love to learn about different cultures and can speak a little French and a little less spanish. Brendans parents live on a small holding half an hour away, we love visiting to see the sheep, alpacas and to pick fruit and veg from the garden. Sophies mum, gran and sister live in Bradford on Avon (2 hours away), we love visiting them to spend time with family. Sophies dad lives in a tiny village near between Malaga and Granada in Spain.. We also love to visit there! Robins cousin Lydia (age 7) is his best friend and luckily she lives half an hour away in Honiton too so we can see each other regularly. We are very sociable and love to have friends round for dinner. We also love being active outdoors climbing, cycling, swimming, exploring and adventuring! About us We love the outdoors! Luckily we live near the forest and the beach :) We also enjoy the social aspects of living in the city of Exeter. We are a very open minded and loving family. We live on the outskirts of the city where it is easier to have a garden and parks. Robin is at nursery mon 9-3, Tuesday Wednesday 9-6. He speaks more like a 4 year old than a 3 year old and loves chatting and dancing. Freya is such a lovely smiley baby she loves being a part of what is going on and is very sociable. We try to always eat our meals together as it is an important time for family reunion. We dont watch much TV but we love music. We try to be environmentally conscious when possible. We like lots of cuddles and laughs. At the weekends we like to ride bikes in the woods, camping, festivals and visiting friends and family. We are kind of non-strict vegetarians or vaguely vegans! We have chickens and eat their eggs and try to mainly eat a plant based diet apart from that.
An au pair would really help with looking after the children and some light housework especially if Bren has to work away from home mon-fri. Would be great if you can take Robin to nursery and pick him up sometimes. We will take you on outings and try to exchange language. We will provide you with a bike. We have an electric piano that you are welcome to play. We want you to be happy in our home so let us know how we can help you :) We would like four days of childcare and helping round the house per week. Two of the days Robin will be at nursery so you just have Freya and it is quite chilled because she will sleep for about 3 hours per day. The work could include preparing food, taking the children to the park/playing outdoors, changing nappies, playing games, arts and crafts, music, tidying, washing the children’s clothes, taking robin to pre-school and picking him up. Sharing some of your language with Robin and Freya, especially songs! We would like some flexibility for example baby sitting for the odd evening out. We can also be flexible with working hours to fit in with you taking an English course if you want. We will pay you £90 per week pocket money. You would have your own double bedroom with WiFi. What you do with your free time is up to you. We are happy for you to be a part of our family and will welcome you to come with us places if you want. We will also support you to find a language class and to build friendships with local people. We look forward to hearing from you! :)
