About us:
We are a family of four (with two school-age children and two cats). I'm a photographer and my partner is a psychotherapist. We love music, art, food and politics, and listen to far too many podcasts. We're an inclusive and open house - LGBTQ+ friendly and welcoming to all communities.

About you:
We’re looking for a calm, considerate, and tidy professional or mature student who needs a reliable weekday base.
As a busy family of four, there will naturally be some crossover in shared spaces—so you must be comfortable living alongside two children and two friendly cats. Ideally, you’re someone who is happy to say hello and have a friendly chat in the kitchen, while also valuing your own space and privacy in your dedicated ground-floor lounge. If you’re looking for a warm, welcoming home during the week, you’ll fit right in!
