  Description

  ONLY GIRLS (because little Nina is happy with big sisters :-))
  
  Hi!
  
  We are a very lively family who already had many many wonderful workawayers! (we are still in contact with them and we can provide their numbers for reference :-))
  
  We live in a beautiful old house right in the center of Milano, with a big garden and an old cloister (you can see a photo on the profile). We are looking for a help with our little daughter Nina, who is 11 (not so little anymore, but she loves to have a big sister to play, to do homework with etc.). If you like to be with kids this is the right place to be.
  
  We have a private room, quite big, and garden access to offer.
  
  Schedule:
  
  From September 4th, 2026:
  Time schedule:
  We would like you to live at our house, talk with us in English, and help with the kids during the afternoon, from 16.00 to 19.00.
  
  We are interested in practicing English and if possible also German during family life!
  
  Now the presentations:
  
  In the photo you can see the whole family: Alice (mamma), Giampaolo (father), Giulio (15), Diego (18) and little Nina (11)... and Iris (dog)!
  
  Giampaolo and me are both researchers, in philosophy (me) and maths (Giampo), and I'm also a yoga teacher. We love trekking (nearly every weekend, in the mountains near Lecco). Diego Giulio and Nina love... fighting together! but also many other things like playing music (Giulio), playing and drawing (Nina),
  playing videogames ( this is Diego :-))....

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We live in a beautiful old house, right in the center of the town, with a big garden and an old cloister of Fifteenth Century (you can see a photo on the profile). Museums and old antique buildings are all around and at foot distance.
  
  Giampaolo is a professor of math and I teach philosophy, we would be glad to share our research. The other great passion of the house is music: Giampaolo and Giulio play piano and Nina plays violin. We would be glad to share this too.
  More in general, we love to know more about the visitors' countries and to tell about ours as well. We already had three au pairs and we had a great exchange with them.
  
  There are very good opportunities to travel on weekends, Italy is full of art and history in every region for you to discover.

  Accommodation

  Beautiful house in the center of Milano
  
  Usually I (mommy Alice) am the one who cooks. I am vegetarian, so I usually cook a lot of vegetables with pasta, rice or potatoes, and eggs and cheese. But I don't mind if the worker buys her own meat and cooks it. Moreover, we would be very happy to know new foods and recipes from her land!
