  Description

  Hello,
  my name is Isa(maria luisa) and together with my husband I'm a proud grandmother of 3 lovely children. We live in a big villa and we renting some flats and we have a big land in front of the house where we pick the fruits and we sell them during the summer season. Me and my husband Mario, we will be a bit busy dealing with the picking season 3 times a week, so we are looking for someone to help us with our nephews (Jacopo 7 years old, joanna 4 years old and Julian nearly 3 years old) who will stay with us. My daughter will be with us and she ll help us so we need someone to take care of the kids from the 26th of July to the 2nd of August and then one more week from the 30th August to the 10/12 of September . You ll stay in my house with my daughter and the children, as during summer we move in the garden small lil house.
  My property is very well connected to a bicycle line towards the sea (with is only 2,5 kms far away) and there is a chance if you would like to go with one child at the time there in the morning or late afternoon as we have a bike with the child seat.
  We are looking to have someone who stays and helps the children while we are busy with the picking or if we have to do other things.
  we live in a very small village which is not real far from all the confort of the city of imperia. There is a bus service close to the house( 3 times a day)or another one 800 mt far away which still give a better connection every hour to the main city.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We are living in the very green area, so we would love to teach (if you would like) how to pick the fruits or do some gardening. I'm not an impressive cook, however, I would like to show you how to prepare some typical italian dishes, like: pizza, pasta, typical Ligurian dishes or some desserts. I used to be a teacher so if you would like to learn italian, from the basic or only practicing the language I would love to exchange that and to have some help with our english wich is very poor. Me and my husband we always loved to travel the world and we did for a long time even with our 2 children ages ago. I consider myself an open minded person and I'm willing to try this new adventure even do the communication can be a bit difficult at the beginning, but we are ITALIANs, we use the body language more the any other country to make ourself be understood.

  Help

  We are looking for a girl or a woman who is very well connected with the nature and who loves children. WE ARE LOOKING FROM SOME HELP. The period is from the 26th of July to the 15/16th of August and 30th of August to the13th of September. my daughter speaks to the children in english since they were born, so she was interested on someone who speaks english to them. We need someone who will take good care of them since they wake up until we are done with the picking (only 3 times a week, Monday, Wednesday and Friday )... so it means, give them the breakfast, change then and do any kind of activity you would love to do it together. They are used to different Nanny (back home) as my daughter lives in pisa and she doesn’t have any family there. They are very friendly and they love new adventures. They all go to schools in pisa so they ready to learn always new things. there are many activities you will be able to do in our big garden, you only need to use ur creativity. The children will generally be divide so you will take care only of 2 children. so we max required to look after 2 children at the time 😊. Some help with me in the house or in the garden can be request, but we are very flexible.
