  Description

  Our family is composed of 2 little boys, Joseph (7) and Ernest (4), both going to school. We also have 2 cats and chickens. We live in a rural village called Marolles-en-Brie and work in farming. We are located at about 1hour train from Paris which can be nice for day trips.
  
  My husband name is Pierre. He is Belgium, works in agriculture and is passionnate about sugarbeet and agriculture machinery.
  
  I am Louise, I work in the field of environnemental science and agronomy. In the past I traveled a lot, enjoying Irish, Australian and Canadian cultures.
  
  We like to welcome travelers to share each other's culture and get help with our daily routine. The ideal workaway to us would be an aupair profile, confortable with the outdoor and nature, highly adaptable, and enthousiastic about children. You can stay with us from 1 week to 1 month.
  
  We can speak fluently english and french. There are no specific jobs needed, only the routine tasks as a family in the evenings and week ends like cooking, gardening, caring for the house and kids and doing social activites.
