Description
I am a single mom with one child... I've had aupairs in the past and all went smooth and we learnt a lot from her culture, cooking etc! It was a real exchange!
We are laid-back and respectful of other cultures and religious beliefs. We like to enjoy a good meal, an occasional getaway in the countryside... Swimming in lakes but when we get the chance too.. We like to go to the beach or the parks in Marseille.
We prefer non-smokers. If you enjoy the beach and hiking this is the perfect place (we are basically 3mins walk from the beach and 15-20mins walk from the calanques hiking trails that will lead you to beautiful nature places to discover!
Marseilles is just a few miles away and there's cheap transportation to get there for visiting, going out or taking French classes! (you can find free classes for foreigners)
Looking forward to welcoming you!

Help
We are looking for a respectful person willing to discover a new culture and places and of course willing to offer help with baby-sitting (picking up my 4 yrs old boy from school or afterschool care. Spend time with him at the park or on the beach and in the evening occasionally if I work during the high season! Be dedicated and part of the family would be ideal! If you speak a bit of French it would be good for the communication with the child (children connect better with language) but I would like someone who speaks English as I also want my son to get familiar with English! I myself speak fluently so communication with me will be pretty easy!
Looking forward to welcoming you!
