Description
We live in the countryside in Kuopio (central Finland) in a big household. There are five children and animals (2 ponnys, dogs, a cat, chicken and rabbits) and a lot of nature. As winter is hard here with lot of snow and low temperatures the duties include helping keeping the house warm. The main helping tasks are like for an aupair general maintenance of the household: cleaning, cooking, washing clothes, feeding the animals, playing with the kids. Do not worry – the work will be done together or individually what fits best. You will be part of the family and I would be glad having an open and sociable person around me. I am fluent in finish and german and i soeak a litle bit english. In your freetime (working time is 4-5 hours, 5 days per week) you can discover the beautiful surroundings like Tahko mountain ski resort nearby, Kuopio city, and others. You are having your own room and you will get a good and authentic insight in Finish lifestyle and culture. I prefer stays 1 month+. Do not hesitate to ask me any question relating about a possible stay in beautiful Suomi. Tervetuloa!
