  Description

  Hello,
  We are a family of 4 (2 kids of 3 & 5) and we just moved to Portugal.
  
  The kids are in school and we both work from home so are looking to help keep the house in order (cleaning, handling laundry / linen / trash etc) as well as a bit of help with the kids here and there before / after school and occasional baby-sittings.
  
  We have a dedicated bedroom upstairs with a bathroom (shared with guests when we have, but that's not super often) and we & the kids are downstairs on the ground floor. We live 15min bike from the ocean (fonte da telha) where you can walk / surf / eat / and many other things and we have many nature reserves around us.
  
  Lisbon is a ~20-30min by Uber (or bus + train) ride if you want to go explore the city.

  Help

  We are a busy family so we are looking for someone that can primarely help keep our house in order (clean, laundry, put the trash out, change bed / towels weekly, tidy up etc). If you like to cook, that's also a plus :)
  
  Help with the kids before / after the school would also be needed (as well as a once or twice a week baby-sittings evening).
