Get your odd jobs done now! This year we have a few students located in Upper Hutt as well for further out jobs. I have started up a student operated initiate in Wellington central called Hire a Hand at the beginning of last year with may satisfy customers over the year. The way it works is that I have a team of students whom you can hire for odd jobs, for example; cleaning, labor, gardening, babysitting, dog walking, digging, general house work or whatever needs doing! You tell me what needs doing and I will assign a responsible student to you or myself, all you need to do is supply the equipment. All of my team are good friends of mine who are trusting and responsible. We have done about 40 jobs through people on neighbourly. I can provide character references for myself if necessary. Be mindful for ongoing jobs that students sometimes return home over the uni holidays! Give me a call/text on 0210537924 or email lealoe.dangen@gmail.com to arrange a student for whatever needs doing at your house!
