Description
We are a family of 5, my husband Maurizio , myself , Beth (a philippinan lady who helps us with the house and the kids) and 2 children aged 11 and 13 with a little nice dog called Sinner. We live in the center of Rome in a very safe and well connected area. Kids go to the french school so we prefer to host francophone people in order for them to improve their knowledge of French culture and language.
Kids do a lot of activities in the afternoon so we mainly need a support in driving them from school to home and/or to the different sport centers (all the spots anyhow are within a couple of km from home). A good driving confidence is necessary since in Rome there is a lot of trafic
We look for somebody responsible, open and positive, willing to be part of the family but independent at the same time (me and my husband work a lot and are not around during the working days. Anyhow Beth is always home for any need ). A a certain amount of patience is required since they are entering into the teenagers ' mood !
A beautyful private bdr with bathroom and a walk-in closet is offered. The house is very confortable and full of space. We love good food and
We have a long experience as host family (we started in 2018 hosting both au pairs and workawayers) and we have always had excellent feedbacks !
We look for minimum a 3/6 months stay and a driving license is mandatory .
I look forward to hearing back from you!
