In general we are looking for someone who
can help us with the children and by doing housework and possibly
some gardening. Our children go to day care and play school during
workdays, so childcare would be proportionally less than, often
is the case.
Our house is on the edge of Greater Reykjavik, in a town called Mosfellsbaer. We are surrounded by nature. We are next to a path that goes to the ocean and into the mountains. All services are within walking distance including swimming pools, stables, sport centers, shops etc. There is a direct bus that goes to the center of Reykjavik. If you are aupairing for us you may have a room in a very nice apartment shared with tenants in the same house or the house next to our apartment, which tends to give you more privacy and more time completely off.
The childrens grand mother lives most of the time in an elderly care place. We are also looking for someone that can help her when she visits us or goes to her own house for a day or two.
We own a small hotel/guesthouse in another
part of Iceland, in Thorshofn, Iceland for which we are looking
for volunteers.
There is the possibility of a combination of these opportunities.
We are open to the possibility of you coming first for a trial period and then extend the stay if there is a mutual interest. We both have short term and long term opportunities.
We are looking for someone that is mature (yet preferably between 18 and 26) that does not mind working hard while at work, but also appreciates a definite time off and the lovely environment we have.
We
are a professional family with 2 very nice children, almost 2
and 4 years old, girl and a boy. They understand and speak some
English already.
If you are interested in joining us in Iceland please do not hesitate to contact us.
You could be sharing duties with another aupair (doing housework and helping with the children) and/or volunteering at our small hotel.
You must be completely smoke and drug free.
If
you send us an e-mail
please also let us know which opportunity or combination you
are most interested in.
