Help Create a More Complete Home

Help Us Create a More Complete Home for Our Growing Family

We’re a family of six in regional Queensland – soon to have another adorable addition.
We have the land, the basics, and the plans… but we need help building proper bedrooms for our kids.

🎯 Goal: $14,000 AUD

Our newest addition – arriving September 2026

Who we are

A family of 6 (soon 7) living on small acreage near Gympie, QLD

What we need

Proper bedrooms so each child has their own space

What we have

Kitchen, bathroom, water, power – the basics are there

What’s missing

Safe, practical sleeping areas for a growing family

Our Situation

Hi, we’re jaysndees – a family built around The Dees (parents) and The Jays (our four kids).

We live on a small acreage near Gympie in Queensland. Over time, we’ve worked hard to build a functional home environment – we have a working kitchen, a bathroom, clean water, and power.

Recently, we found out we’re expecting another baby in September 2026.

While we’re incredibly excited, it has also made one thing very clear:

We simply don’t have enough proper bedroom space for our children.

Why This Matters

Right now, our kids are sharing limited space that isn’t designed for long-term living.

  • Mid-teen boy
  • Nearly 11-year-old boy
  • 4-year-old twins (boy & girl)

As they grow, privacy, comfort, and personal space become more important — not just for sleep, but for development, routine, and wellbeing.

With another baby on the way, the situation becomes even more urgent.

What We’re Trying to Build

I (D1) have already drawn up the plans – what we’re missing is the funding to bring them to life.
Some basic work has been completed – there is still much more to do though.

Main living improvements

  • Kitchen / dining completion
  • Lounge room finishing
  • Storage improvements

Bedroom construction

  • J1 – relocate, renovate, re-roof
  • J2 – full redesign
  • J3 & J4 – shared bedroom + toy area build

Parents + newborn

  • Storage for clothes and essentials
  • Bedroom adjustments

Current Progress

This project is being built step-by-step as time and resources allow.
