Hayley Helps Out

Seeing as I tend to forget to take before and after photos at my paid jobs here are some shots of my pruning work around my own property.

Spaces available!
I'm finished with calf rearing and I've been busy with weeding gardens. I keep forgetting to take before and after photos. I tend to arrive at a job and get stuck in and then remember when I'm halfway through or I finish and forget to take an after photo therefore I don't have much in the way of photos for 'advertisement'.
I have space to take on some more jobs whether it be one off, weekly, fortnightly etc. Please keep in mind the jobs like gardening and lawn mowing are weather dependent and livestock work will need to take priority.

Thought I better put up a post to let everyone know that Hayley Helps Out is still in business.
Currently I'm busy with calf rearing. It's mainly just in the mornings so therefore I do have some time for some small odd jobs that you may have that need doing... that is if the calves don't eat me first 😂

If there's a day when you are unable to take your K9 friend/s for a walk but they really need to go on their walk then get in touch with me. Dog/s will need to be nice natured and be happy with an initial stranger to take them on an outing. Meet and greets to be arranged beforehand so dog/s can meet me with you there too.
Can do short 30 min walks or an hour or longer. If your dog travels well in a car I can take them for a change of scenery for a walk in the country or around the Kamahi Reserve bush walk.
Alternatively if your dog isn't the best walker then I could spend time with him/her in their own back yard throwing a ball for them.
Also keep me in mind if you're heading away but can't take your pets and need someone to come feed them.

Do you need some help around the place that doesn't require a professional to do it?
Get in touch & maybe I'll be able to help you out.
Available mostly during school hours.

For the past few months I've been mainly weeding gardens and in the past couple of weeks I've been helping out with farm/stock work which I really enjoy.
Come August I'll be busy with calf rearing for approx 3-4 months.

Today's supervisor was rather chirpy.

I have spent 21 hours weeding gardens this week, and in the meantime my own jungle keeps on growing. Maybe that'll be tomorrow's job 🤷‍♀️

Introducing me.
I'm Hayley and I grew up in Riversdale. I left the area to join my partner (now husband) in Auckland. After a couple of years up there we moved to Canterbury for 6 years, then up to the Manawatu for 5 years, back to Canterbury for a couple of years before moving back down south to settle in Edendale.
I've worked in 3 different New Worlds; on checkouts, in the grocery department and as a bakery assistant. After that I became a stay at home mum. We have 4 children, the oldest is away to Uni this year, the second is in year 12 and the younger 2 are still at primary school in years 5 and 3.
In recent years I've done 3 seasons of calf rearing, 1 season at the Edendale Nursery and best of all I spent 5 months as an Equine Herd Assistant looking after horses used for therapy.
After that I drifted through a few other temporary jobs which gave me the idea of setting up Hayley Helps Out.
