Description
Hello to anyone who takes the time to read this.

In September 2019 our family moves to Cirali, Turkey.
There will be an exra bedroom in our house, if you want to visit this wonderfull place and to help me a bit with children (not much, 2-3 hours a day) - write!

We are a family with 4 children, age 2-16, who are curious, noisy and very active. We live in St.Petersburg, Russia, in a quiet district, very close to metro station. There are 5 bedrooms in our apartment and one of them is totally for you. We are sure you will enjoy staying is St.Petersburg - it is beautiful any time of the year.

If you like children, playing with them and so on, you are welcome to help us. We are looking for a volunteer with fluent English to help my children to improve their English, but if you can just help me at the kitchen, or with cleaning, or playing with the younger children - that's will be nice. As for summer 2019 we are specially looking for people who can help with general maintance in the house. We are looking for guys to help with some renovation in the rooms or for girls who san sew, or draw, any help with decorating). But baby sitters are still wanted too.

Irina's family is such a charming group of individuals that it is nearly impossible not to fit right in with the unique vibrancy and rhythm of the household. With four children, two cats, and a dog, something is always moving, shifting, laughing, crying, eating, giggling or playing. Such energy is both infectious and invigorating and I enjoyed a… read more

Irina and all of her family are really lovely people. They were quite busy working and taking care of the kids but still were suggesting different plans and places to visit both with or without them. The help was easy and I could decided manage my own time. The bedroom was HUGE and super nice. Thank you for everything!

Rene was really brave to come to visit us in winter. In fact he was our first workaway volunteer and with his help we got into the system. Prior to arrival, he was quick to respond to any queries. Though with limited previous practical experience he turned out to be a good teacher and without complaint (at the time!). He was chatty and very easy… read more
