  Description

  I am Raul, and i live with my wife Eva and two daughters, Laila (2008) and Vera (2012). We live in a small town close to Madrid. We like to live in the mountain because kids grow in a nature environment, more quiet and interesting but also with many kind of activities (not only for kids). We have a social community where we do many activities.
  
  We live in a house with two independent floors and a garden where we have a small swimming pool a funy trampolin.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  If you want to go to Madrid there are many buses, and in less than one hour you arrive to Madrid. So here you have two perfect options, spend time in a city like Madrid, big and full of interesting things and then the quiet of living in a small town.
  The area around our town is really beautiful, in the west part of Madrid mountains. Perfect to walk, cycling, and enjoy outside.

  Help

  We are looking for someone who help us with our kids basically. Take to school, help with homework, take to other activities like dance, swimming, and basically spend time with them to learn other cultures and languages. Now specifically we want for them to learn English. At the end, it is the idea for all the family.
  
  We want someone helping us mainly in the afternoon when kids are at home. From Monday to Friday but we are flexible. We have a big garden so also help with gardening is something we are looking for.
  On weekends we usually do many things and of course the volunteer is welcome to join us.
  
  We would like someone who loves being with kids, spend time with them, play with them and love them.
