Description
Hello! We are a family of 4 people: Cristina (the mom - Italian) Joaquin (the dad - Spanish), Mikele, 5 years old, and Nico, 2.5 year old. Also, Tana, a 2 years old Labrador dog, lives with us.
We live in a small town (100,000 inhabitants), 15 minutes walk from the beach La Barrosa, in the south of Spain. We are vegetarians: in our house, we don't buy or cook meat, but we do cook super tasty dishes that usually surprise our friends :)

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are looking for someone friendly, open to be part of our family and willing to join us in our family activities whenever you want :)
At home we mainly speak Spanish, but if you want to learn Italian, I can speak Italian with you, as I am a native speaker.

Help
We are looking for someone who wants to join us for a season, to help us with the kids. We would love if you could speak English to the children so they can learn by playing with you. We are flexible about the schedule. Ideally, it could be from Monday to Friday from 16.00 to 19.00 and on Saturday from 10 to 14. If possible, we'd also love to have one night per week to go out for dinner (we would leave for 2 hours when kids are already sleeping).
Languages spoken
Spanish: Fluent
Italian: Fluent
English: Intermediate
Accommodation
We live in a fairly large house (140 square meters), with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The room for you is at the entrance of the house, further away from the other rooms, so that if the children cry at night, they are less audible. The bathroom will be shared with the children. We have a garden of 1000 square meters, where, apart from the main house, there is a cabin with two bedrooms that we use as a guest house. We have a pool of 4 x 7 meters and a porch where we eat on sunny days.
What else ...
We live in Chiclana de la Frontera, a small town of 100,000 inhabitants in southern Spain. Our house is located 10 minutes walk from the beach, near a river and a pine forest. It is one of the most desirable tourist destinations in Spain, so there are a lot of tourists in summer, but in winter it is a very quiet and pleasant place.
