    Hello
    My name is Serena, I live whit my husband Sante and we have a baby call Teo. He is 2 years old.
    We will need help for child care, and house maintenance.
    We live in Furci, in a small sea town but well served. Within a 100 m from the house, you can find: pharmacy, herbal, several popular bars for granita, two shops, two butchers, two fishmongers (Furci is also renowned for fresh fish), a post office, a bank, a church, and several shops.
    Some info about us :)
    Serena: I'm environmental educator, I love cook, prepare nature medical preparations, organise event around ethical food. Also I practice yoga and I had a yoga teacher training.
    Sante: I'm a biodynamic farmer. I love read book, study Antroposophy and enjoy work with good people.
    Teo:)) I love eat, exploring everything and everywhere, and I'm a such nice and funny little boy.
    We are looking for a girl/woman that has child care experience and that is emphatic and love child!


    MEALS: In general, our idea is to share lunch, FROM MONDAY TO FRIDAY, but to be free in the evening and on the weekend. Of course will provide basic food for you and you will be free to cook in the shared kitchen.
    Meals will be mostly vegetarian but it is possible that sometimes we cook the fish and meat as well.

    ACCOMODATION:
    The accommodation will be in a single room with private bathroom and you can have access to the kitchen.

    The AREA is proximity to the sea and to many locations, including Taormina (15 km) Savoca, one of the most beautiful towns in Italy, Forza d'Agro places the film the Godfather (8 km ) Isola Bella (12 km), Catania (60 km), Etna (6th km), Aeolian Islands (60 km + crossing) .Good connections to Catania and Messina by train. About one connection per hour.
    Alternatively the bus network.

    The helping hours are 5 hours pour day, no less but no more :-) 5 days a week.
