Description
We are a small family with a 9yr old son, looking for someone who can help with play time, looking after him, drive him to or from school when our work prohibits us from doing it ourselves and help around the house and garden a bit too. We have a nice house near Cannes in southern France, close to the beach and mountains. We are a mix of cultures, being from Australia, Czech Republic, and our son Falco, having been born in France. Our household language is English, we speak and understand French, and are trying to teach our son Czech.

We are based in France, so there is a possibility to soak up some French culture and discover the beautiful French Riviera. We offer a cultural mix from Czech Republic, and Australia at home too, and we are interested to learn other people's ways as well. Our son is fluent in english, french and is learning Czech.

We need help from the 10th March 2024. We had au-pairs and workawayer previously and it was a great experience.
We mainly need help for school runs (so drivers licence and comfortable driving is a must) and some play time. Our boy enjoys electronics, Pokemons, ball games, some board games, cycling etc. Help with some light household tasks and gardening.Languages spoken

There are lots of things to do in the area, whether it is exploring the cities and towns along the coast, or hiking in the local forests or up the mountains.
