Come and meet our family in a beautiful casita in Mallorca, Spain

  Description

  Hi! We're Claudia and Will, and we live with our two children, Sienna (5) and Freddie (2), on a beautiful finca in Santa Maria, in the heart of Mallorca.
  
  Our home has a large garden, a swimming pool, and a separate self-contained casita where you'll have your own private space with everything you need. We're just a 20-minute walk from the village and train station, where you can catch a train to Palma in just 15 minutes or explore the rest of the island. We also have bikes you're welcome to use to get around.
  
  We're looking for a friendly, caring Workawayer or 2 to join us during August.
  For the first few weeks, we'd love someone who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. The role will mainly involve playing with Sienna and Freddie at home, taking them to local parks, preparing lunch and snacks, and coming up with fun, creative activities to keep them entertained while we work.
  
  On 18th August we'll be heading away, and you'll have the opportunity to stay on in the casita and enjoy exploring Mallorca in your free time. During this period, we'd simply ask you to look after our two friendly cats and help with a few light projects around the property, such as painting and gardening.
  
  We think this would be a fantastic opportunity for a couple who love children, enjoy outdoor living, and would like to experience life in Mallorca while having plenty of time to discover this amazing island.
  
  If this sounds like a good fit, we'd love to hear from you and answer any questions you have!

  Help

  We are a relaxed and welcoming family looking for an au pair to join us this summer.
  We have two lovely children: Sienna, who is 5, is sweet and a little on the quiet side. She loves crafts, colouring, and calm creative activities. Freddie is 2 and a typical energetic toddler — he enjoys running around, playing with a ball, and bouncing on the trampoline!
  We also have two friendly cats.
  We live in a house just a 5-minute cycle from the village, so everything is easily accessible while still enjoying a peaceful setting. We’re lucky to have a large swimming pool at home, so it’s important that you are comfortable around water. That said, you won’t need to take the children in the pool on your own if you’d rather not.
  
  If you are a couple you are welcome to both stay, as we always have odd jobs (painting, gardening etc) to do around the house and garden.
