  Dear future guest,
  
  ......
  DATES AVAILABLE:

  From the 26th of August until the 30th of September.
  ......
  We are a warm, multilingual family of four with a newborn (born last November) and a delightful 3-year-old son. We recently moved into a new apartment in Zurich, and we love hosting guests in our comfortable ensuite room.
  
  Due to our family life with two kids and some back issues of my husband, we are seeking an experienced and reliable childcare provider to play with our 3-year-old son and assist with light housework. Our ideal candidate has prior experience caring for toddlers and/or infants, enjoys cooking, like cleaning and is comfortable communicating in French, English, or German.
  
  Schedule and Responsibilities:
  
  We are flexible and happy to create a weekly plan that suits everyone's needs. Total Hours: Approximately 20-25 hours per week.
  
  Childcare: Our son attends school during the day and we need help to play with him after school (5-7 pm). Our son loves a good laught and we need a great entertainer :) . If experienced with babies, you might have to take care of him 2h sometimes when I have an appointment. Childcare experience or strong interest is a must-have.
  
  Daily Housework: Tasks may include laundry, cooking, light cleaning, tidying, trash, clearing kitchen, making beds.
  
  Cooking: cooking 2,3 times per week in big portions so that covers several days. We eat healthily with daily salad, proteins, and vegetables. We like confident cooks who can manage a meal by looking to what is available in the fridge. We also love cakes! And some of our guest spoiled us with their delicious cooking or baking skills.
  
  One-Time Tasks (as needed during the year):
  
  Deep cleaning of some area in the apartment
  Gardening
  Cleaning windows, fridge, and oven,...
  Other occasional tasks as agreed upon

  Meals: We enjoy sharing dinner with our guests and including them in our family activities whenever possible.
  Flexibility: We are happy to work around your schedule and interests. Lunch is more flexible.
  Warm and Welcoming Environment: We are a friendly and supportive family who values open communication.
  Important Note: To set expectations, we are in a busy phase with two young children. We have a family-oriented routine, waking up early and going to bed early. In the evenings, we generally enjoy quiet time and privacy in the living room from 8h30 pm onwards. Also, we have sleep doors open to hear our son during the night if he gets into trouble. Therefore, our guests are welcome to stay on there dedicated space or go out as there is a private entrance to access their room.
  We offer a safe environment and know that Zurich is a very safe city to travel.

  Our family speaks French, German, English, and Russian.
  We live close to the forest and enjoy biking.
  We have a bus stop right in front of our home with frequent service to Zurich's main train station including night bus.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  We are a multicultural family. We speak 3 languages at home and my husband also speaks Russian.
  We leave in Zurich, at the border of the forest and close to the lake and the river. Zurich has a lot to offer with the mountains and the lakes! Also it is very easy to travel with the train across the country and Europe.
  We both work in tech companies. I will be in maternity leave and I will have lots of time to spend time with you and discuss around a good meal as I love cooking when I have time.
  During my maternity leave I investissement (one of my hobby). My other hobby is aerial dance ( dancing on fabric in the air) and I would love to get back to sport if I have help for childcare. We both have our parents far away so we don't really have time for our hobbies.

  Ajuda

  CHILDCARE: We would need help to take care of my 3 years old son some hours per week. We would like someone who has experience in taking care of kids and who love playing with kids, going out to the playground, teaching them many new things and creating cool activities! Experience with small babies would also be a big plus!!!
  
  DAILY TASKS: the main task will be to support for daily tasks like clearing kitchen, dish washer, tidying the rooms, making the beds, laundry and cooking dinners... And one time every two weeks cleaning the full apartment (4h). Maybe I could need one time during the stay sometimes extra tasks like windows, fridge, balconies,...(but this is not a priority).
  
  If the host is connected well with our kids, then I will reduce the chores to a minimum to move to childcare then I can cook for instance.
  
  We would agree on the weekly basis together. We are flexible.
