    Description

    I work in the historical center where I rent an apartment to tourists. My husband is a photographer. We love travelling and sports. In the morning we wake up around 8.30. We would like you to spend some time with our 14years old daughter during the daytime (4/5 hours except the weekends). We need someone positive who is happy to teach/speak English and go around with our daughter (she will almost be 17 in July)

    We all live in Sesto Fiorentino a small village right outside Florence. By train, in 10 minutes you can reach Florence's historical centre.
