Description
Hi! We are an Italian family of four: Paola (mother, 40 years old), Stefano (father, 40 years old), Valentina (daughter, 7 years old) and Alessia (daughter, 3 years old). We live in a big house in Concesio, that is a village just in the outskirts of Brescia, a big town in the North of Italy between Milan and Venice. We are quite close to Iseo Lake (approx. 20 km) and Lake Garda (approx. 30 Km). All the surroundings offer beautiful places to visit. Our house has a big garden where we spend time with our girls growing plants and playing. We like travelling, discovering new cultures and tasting food from around the world!

Help
During the summer, schools in Italy are closed. Grandparents take care of the girls during the day. Since we believe that meeting new people from around the world is really a great opportunity of enrichment for our daughters, we look for girls willing to spend some time with them, playing with them and maybe practicing a foreign language. In July we will spend some week-ends in Jesolo, in our flat on the seaside near Venice, and our guest will be welcome to join us.
