  Description

  We are a four members family, with 2 children aged 4 and 7 years old. We are originally from Madrid and La Mancha and we moved in Benalmádena 8 years ago. We have travelled around more than 50 countries in the world, and 20 of them already as a family. We got in loved with this beautiful coast. We adults can speak Spanish, English, a bit of French and Italian. We work at home and attending some meetings in the capital. We are an Anthropologist and a Social Worker. We like sports, travelling and meeting friends and family. We have created a family project to promote the Sustainable Development Goals in different cities, so we try to do our best to live according with these values.
  The children both speak English as father talks English at them all the time.
  Elías is a 3 years ever happy boy; he likes to play at the garden, and the beach. He plays a lot with his tools, architecture blocks, cards, and books.
  Oliver is a very sensitive boy; he likes to play sports, chess, going for a walk, a watching nice children movies.
  Our home is very well located in a typical white Andalucian village, with narrow streets, plants everywhere and cute bars and restaurants full of live. It is easily connected by bus and trains to main towns and cities around, like Mijas, Torremolinos, Málaga, Córdoba, Sevilla, etc. We love culture exchange, and even we make home exchanges :) for some years with 30 great experiences. To be member of Workaway is part of our way of life!

  Aide

  We would like to share our culture, travel experience, food and traditions. We would be so glad to host someone with good children care skills and attitude to enjoy this experience of helping a family to spread the SDG´s principles around. Basically, you can help in picking the kids up at the school, playing with them at the neighbourhood garden and accompany Oliver with the little homework, reading books, singing, playing piano, going to the beach, whatever you would like to suggest to enjoy the time with them. An hour per day can be also dedicated to routinary tasks at home like loading and unloading the dishwasher and hang out the washing. The total time dedicate to the children will not exceed from 20 hours per week; weekends will be free unless we all agree in a change of schedule. We will cook for all as usual, kids like to eat as healthy as possible : ) if you like to help in this field, welcome!

  Hébergement

  We have a very quite house with open sea views. Our neighbourhood has swimming-pool, padel court, children playground, garden, and is located only 6 minutes walking to the village (this is not common in our town, where the car is needed most of times). We have a room with a bunk bed. The kids sleep in the lower bed and there is a bed in the upper part. They will be so happy for not sleeping alone : ) We have a cute terrace where you can enjoy our 300 days of sun per year.
  We have internet high speed conection, and some main TV and cinema platforms, like HBO, Prime Video and Netflix.
