Description
*At the moment, we are looking for help for medium/long term* THREE MONTHS COMMITTENT for summer months, between July/August and October (Ideally we look for someone that has experience with kids and can stay for longer periods)
We are a young italian/spanish family of 3: me, Irene, 31 years old, my husband, Rubén 38 years old and our little son, Gael, born April 2023. (Just turned 1year old)
We are first time parents and this journey has been the most intense one, life with a baby is very busy, there is always something to do and very restless nights leave us without energy.
I have a very active boy that needs attention and stimulation, he is super friendly, love to meet new people and get attached very soon to all the volunteers we had until now. He always has a smile for them ;)
At the moment I stay at home with our son Gael, while my husband spend most of the day at work, but I plan to restart working in August/September gradually and Gael will start nursery in October, so I'm looking a trusty person that can help me with this transition. That's the reason why we look for someone that can stay with us around 3 months.
I was my self an aupair 12 years ago and with my husband we have been volunteers for a year around the world throught workaway platform, so we know very well how much this kind of experience can give to both parts.
We are a very calm family that has a simple life, and we look someone similar to join our family.
We are looking for someone that is very respectful of our space and times and is proactive, capable to keep things running smooth without much supervision.
We are very flexible and friendly, you will have plenty of opportunity to enjoy your time here.
