  Description

  I am a mother with two children aged 9 and 6. We live in Daganzo, a town on the outskirts of the capital of Madrid and near the mountains of Madrid. One of the best advantages of living here is that the air is not contaminated by the pollution of the city having a better quality of life.
  
  I would like to have the help of an English person to stay with us from now on and help me with the children and the language.

  Help

  What I need is a person who wants to share with us every day, who plays and speaks English with my children, who helps them with their homework and who feels integrated with us in a good coexistence. That is like an older brother for my children.
  
  Lo que necesito es una persona que quiera compartir con nosotros el día a día, que juegue y hable inglés con mis hijos, que les ayude con los deberes y que se sienta integrada con nosotros en una buena convivencia. Que sea como un/a hermano/a mayor para mis hijos.

  What else ...

  The transport here is by bus that takes you to the renfe station where you can go anywhere in Madrid. I would have free mornings until 2:00 p.m. when children leave school and on weekends. Daganzo de arriba is a town ten minutes drive from the airport, near the mountains and where you can walk anywhere. With enough parks and areas for hiking
  
  El transporte de aquí es en autobús que te lleva a la estación de renfe donde puedes ir a cualquier sitio en Madrid. Tendría las mañanas libres hasta las 14.00hs que salen los niños del cole y los fines de semana. Daganzo de arriba es un pueblo a diez minutos en coche del aeropuerto, cerca de la sierra y al que puedes ir andando a cualquier sitio. Con bastantes parques y zonas para hacer senderismo
