Are you a home-loving
girl, wanting to care for children, look after the house and do the 101
things that a Wife and Mother does every day on a cattle or sheep station?

This work would include some cooking and cleaning, some gardening, some
child-care - perhaps supervision out riding or in the swimming pool, driving
them to school or to the bus stop. Maybe you would collect the mail from
the road-end or the airstrip, help with the washing and ironing, table laying,
washing up, dusting and polishing - the job is varied indeed.
This sort of work is sometimes called being a Mother's Help, in other
places a Girl Friday. However, a Girl Friday would also have outdoor duties,
helping with the animals, driving, riding and taking part in all the work
of the station.
These jobs are usually paid between $250 and $300 per week clear, depending
on age and experience and you are always given free food and accommodation.
You usually live in the family homestead and the job is for two to three
months.
We have work for:
teachers and graduates
nurses and hospital staff
domestic wokers, cleaners and kitchen hands
Mother's helps and nannies
students and gap year students
anyone who has lived on a farm
and
anyone who is willing to have the experience of a lifetime!
Phone 0741 686 185 or
complete the Enquiry form on the Enquire Now page. You will receive
an application form and information sheet by email.
Complete the form as best you can, giving us as much information as
possible about your skills and qualifications, about WHERE you would like
to work and WHAT you would like to do. We also need to receive a faxed
copy of your Working Holiday Visa so that we know you are a legal worker.
Sign the application form at the DOMESTIC ONLY place.
It is important to remember that you need to look tidy and business like.
Girls with hundreds of earrings, nose, chin, eyebrow and mouth rings are
not so easily employable. Table manners are terribly important too, no
family wants a messy eater with them when they are trying to teach their
children!
If your first language is not English and you go to a job with another
of your fellow-countrymen, it is important to remember not to speak your
own language in the presence of your employer.
HOSPITALITY
Jobs are also available in pubs, roadhouses, hotels, motels,
on host farms and even in rural supermarkets for those who
only want domestic work. For those who do not have previous experience a
Hospitality Course is available after which work is guaranteed.
There is a large range of opportunities in the 'bush' but never in coastal
resorts and never in the cities.
When you have earned lots of money, and saved it all (because there is nothing to spend it on!) go to the coast and the cities and have fun - but please remember to call us just before you run out of money so that you can be listed for another job!
