    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I love getting to know new people and cultures. I've lived and travelled all over the world so I would say that I have a multicultural background and I believe it would be a great experience for me and my son to have an international household. There are a lot of AuPairs here and international students that have formed a community. A spanish speaking person would be a great option for us. We would learn about each others culture, enjoy each others company and respect each others space and privacy.

    I'm a single mum with of a one year old and will be starting to work again this September. My work includes different shifts so my working hours are very irregular, to begin with I'm only working 50% so my workdays won't be that many to start with. I always get my program 2 weeks before each month. So before every month we could make a schedule over babysitting and housework duties depending on my shifts and other time off that I need.
