    Description

    Hello, we are à family of 6, Clémentine, Philémon, Anatole, Cassiopée are 16, 15, 13, 10 years old and the parents are Anne-Sophie et Julien. we live in a beautiful and big old house that needs a lot of work that Julien gradually undertakes. we are located in boege a small village of Haute-Savoie in the French Alps near Geneva. We need help to take care of the children but also for all the daily household and DIY work in the house. We love music (we have two pianos a guitar a bass and some percussions), we also like mountain sports (downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, hiking, sledging). It's important that you have a driving license to drive the kids to their various activities (the gearbox is manual, NOT automatic). You will have your own room, you will be welcomed in a warm family atmosphere. We hope to see you soon.
