Childcare/Homeschool Helper for Children of Missionaries in Thailand

Missionary families in Thailand often need help with childcare and homeschooling especially when their children are young. Parents need to learn the local language and start getting involved in cross cultural work. They need support for their children's education to help them adjust well to the new environment and progress well in their learning. Most of these families need their children to learn English well as they may send their children to international schools later.
