Description
Hi, I am Laura the grand-mother...
I have an active family living in a small town near Verona. It is a city well connected by public transport.
The nearest train station is a five minute walk away. The train takes 20 minutes to reach the center of Verona.
It is also possible to easily reach and visit Venice, Milan, Bologna, Florence and Rome.
We are expecting a girl who loves children because I need help taking care of my nephew: Amos, who is seven years old, her little sister Thalia (2 y.o), Aurora (8 y.o.) and her sister Sofia (5 y.o.).
We need help maximum for 20 hours a week, plus 4 hours of light housekeeping. We are also very flexible and can arrange all times if you need a few days off during the week. Normally you will have the weekend free.
We like to consider you part of the family, we have already hosted 20 girls in 6 years, and for many of them it was their first workaway experience.
We would also like to share our cultures and our language with you and help you in anything you need.
We prefer a girl with fluent English, but if you know basic Italian it would be very convenient.
Thanks for reading.
Ask us any questions.
Greetings.
Laura.
