Description
We require a minimum 2 week stay - form 22/06 to 14/07 and from 26 august.
We are looking for a mother tongue English or Spanish to practice languages. Furthermore, we are searching for people interested in looking after our 3 children a few hours a day (play with them in English or Spanish) and speaking with us to practice English speaking (for 25 hours per week with a flexible timetable) .
We believe that sharing a few weeks with people from another country can help kids to grow with a better awareness of the different people and cultures that surround them. We also needs to improve our knowledge of languages.

We have 6 cats. We love animals!!!
Something about the kids:
Emma is a read-aholic and she loves the swimming pool. She plays the piano and likes drawing.
Carlo loves tales and just started to learn to play the guitar. He has his fantastic world and he is always enthusiastic about building things together.
Ettore wants go out all the time. He likes water and sand.
The grandparents and cousins live close to us, so the children spend lots time with them.

I love dancing flok music and my housband is a clown...so if you like there is lots of fun!
