  Description

  We are a couple living with 4 kids (8, 9, 9, 13) in a contemporary house with swimming pool located just 300 meters from Vau Beach in Portimão, Algarve.
  
  We are looking for a friendly and cheerful workawayer who enjoys children and speaks Swedish, English, French, German, or Italian to encourage language learning within the family. Main tasks include helping with childcare, assisting with house cleaning and tidying, preparing meals, gardening, practical tasks and help around the house . Our day as a family starts at 7 am in the morning with the preparation of the kids for school. Drivers licence is an advantage for help in shopping and transport of the kids to/from school.
  
  We offer a private bedroom and a separate bathroom for your stay.
  
  If you think this environment is ideal for you, we would be delighted to welcome you to our home!
