Help
We are looking for someone who likes spending time with our children and dogs and who can be patient in talking to them in English, French or Italian. We ask to spend approximately 2 to 3 hours with the children in the afternoon after school, between 4 and 7 PM, but not every day as the schedule permits. Few hours in the morning during weekends as well. We ask to keep the room clean and tidy and to help inside the house just like all the other members of the family do. We will take all the food and accommodation costs.
