Description
We are looking for a reliable wa (sorry, only ladies at the moment!) who wants to join our family and our children above all, possibly ENGLISH MOTHER-TONGUE PERSON (long stay most welcome).
We, dad Daniele, Mom Anna, two boys 14 and 12 and a girl 11, live near Como (15 min by car), in a comfortable house with garden, vegetable garden and swimming pool. We live near the wood, cows and horse stables.
We have a german shepherd, chickens and rabbits.
We are looking for a kind, organised, adaptable lady, possibly with experience in children education.
One of our kids has Asperger syndrome therefore we need someone who is highly sweet, careful and sensitive. The eldest son has diabetes but he’s quite independent in the administration of insulin.
We appreciate if you could engage them in lively activities or anything you can do.
We are a quite active family. We like to spend time outside and with friends. We cycle, spend time in the backyard, swim in summer, enjoying our spare time, eating healthy food.
We do love hiking in the mountains, fitness, working in the garden. My husband is definitely a car man! I have a huge passion for foreign languages and cultures. I am a photographer.
Our hobbies are different: learning new languages, getting to know new culture, travelling as much as we can, host friends, cooking, sport, swimming and hiking (summer), skiing and snowboarding (winter), gardening and breeding animals.
Our children are proactive, full of energy, curious and lovely, they play the piano, guitar and the drums. They also go bicycle and love to go for a walk in the woods. They love insects, animals, Lego constructions, drawing, play hide-and-seek, soccer, working in the garden, pet the chickens and the dog.

Every single day is a fresh start!
Live in a family with kids means to laugh every day, be more active and patient than you can imagine, be the hero in many situations (also for us as parents), notice the little things, have new siblings and friends...
Children find true happiness while playing with our wa and they love making new friends.
We already hosted 10 au pairs and 8 wa in the past and we would like to get to know other fantastic people.

- help the kids learning and speaking properly
- help them with homework, play and supervise while swimming. Engage them in lively activities
- help the kids to take care of their belongings
- help setting and cleaning the table
- cooking and vacuum if requested
- feed the animals and help keep clean
- help in the vegetable garden
4/5 hours per day, 5 days/week. At times, we need some babysitting when we go out.
In your spare time you can decide whether you want to join us in family activities or take your own time in free.

We would appreciate if you could correct the kids while speaking so they can reach a higher English level. At the moment they have a B1.
Hébergement
Bedroom with bed, wardrobe, desk with chair and your bathroom. We provide free internet access at home and a bicycle. We offer board as well.
We would like our wa to have supper with us since we love to share experiences and learn from each other.
It wouldn’t be a problem if you are vegetarian but not so easy if you are vegan, cause we provide our children a variegated diet. Many products come from our farm, like rise, meat, chicken, eggs...
Autres infos...
We live in a village near Como (15 min by car), a small town 45 Km from Milano and 30 km from Lugano (Switzerland).
We live in a comfortable house with garden and pool, close to the wood and several stables where you can go horseback riding.
In our village there's a Kneipp path with cold baths where feet and ankles are pleasantly massaged by walking in the water and on the stones. This therapy has a wonderful beneficial effect on blood circulation.
You can also find many routes for cycling and mountain biking.
Close to our home there’s the bus stop and all you need (1 km) like supermarkets, shopping center, green areas, shops, library, church and gym.
You can visit Como and its beautiful lake, Milano and many other cities in our region.
Switzerland isn't far away, only 15 min to Chiasso and from there 40 min to Lugano by train.
