Help
We are looking for a girl that above all will take care of our 2 children: Sofia, 8 years old, and Dante, that is 4 years old.
We dont have a regular time table: that’s why we are looking for a person that can support us with the children and with some small housworks.
We need help for Dante, especially, in the morning and at the dinner time.
My husband and I have the offices downstair so one of us will be always at home and the girl will never be alone with the children.
Usually Sofia will be back home around 16.
We presume that the girl will be engaged for nearly 5 hours per day (free weekend to do what you like).
Help requested: we need a girl that take care of Dante and speak english with Sofia when she is at home…
She should also support us in small housworks

Accommodation
We live in a single, big house with garden in Zevio (14.000 people), a town not far away from Verona (just 13 km). My husband and I have the officies downstairs
We provide a nice, single bed room at the first floor with our family. Internet wifi is included.
Bathroom and kitchen will be shared: we will provide food and drinks.
What else ...
Our accomodation is well located: just out the gate you can reach some shops, supermarket, pharmacy, bank, hospital, church, yoga center, café…
By bus you can reach Verona, the city of Romeo and Juliet, in 30 minutes. By bus you can also reach the rail station and choose among many destinations: Venezia, Milano, Padova, Bologna, Mantova…
Bytheway also all around Verona there many nice place to visit: Garda Lake (Lazise, Bardolino, Garda, Malcesine….), Lessina (our hills and mountais) , Monte Baldo or Monte Carega if you like soft trekking. Also the see is not distant (Jesolo and Caorle are very nice).
Every sunday in Zevio there is a huge market where you can find many things (food, clothes…with a multiethnic touch).
Our house is closed to Adige, wihich is the second longest italian river. All around Adige there is “Parco dell’Adige” a very nice place where people are used to walk and run.
Zevio is also famous for its apples, the tipycal colture of this area: very sweet and juicy.
The province of Verona is famous in the world for wine production (Amarone della Valpolicella and Soave are the most rappresentative wines of our region).
