  • Description

    Description

    I'm a single mother of twins and a flight attendant. I'd like to host a young woman to take over childcare for my 5-year-old children every other week. We're open to all cultures and love to travel and host new people. We also live with our cat, Lizzy. We live on the banks of the Marne River, where life is pleasant while still being close to the center of Paris (less than 30 minutes).

    Maman solo avec 2 twins, je suis hôtesse de l'air et je souhaiterai accueillir une jeune fille pour prendre le relais auprès de mes enfants de 5 ans une semaine sur 2.
    Nous sommes ouverts à toutes les autres cultures et nous aimons voyager et accueillir pour découvrir de nouvelles personnes .
    Nous habitons également avec un chat Lizzy.
    Nous habitons sur les bords de Marne où la vie y est douce tout en étant proche du centre de Paris en moins de 30min.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are a warm and multicultural family living near Paris. I am of French, Moroccan and Iranian descent, and the children also have Caribbean roots. Openness, respect and cultural exchange are very important values in our home, and we truly enjoy discovering new languages, cuisines, traditions and ways of life.
    We would love to welcome someone who would like to experience real French family life while feeling comfortable, respected and included as part of the family. For us, hosting is not only about childcare help, but also about creating a genuine human and cultural exchange.
    At home, we enjoy creative activities such as watercolor painting and art workshops, and I personally dance Salsa and Bachata. If you enjoy music and dancing, we would be happy to share that with you too. I also love cooking and would be delighted to teach French, Mediterranean and Moroccan dishes while discovering recipes from your own culture.
    We often spend time together doing simple family activities such as walks along the Marne river, family gatherings, weekends with friends, local outings and discovering nice places around Paris.
    We respect personal time and independence, but we also enjoy sharing meaningful moments together whenever everyone feels like it. We respect all faiths and beliefs, and we want our home to be a place where everyone feels welcomed, safe and valued.

    Help

    I would like the young woman to be able to drop the children off at school (20 minutes by electric bike) or pick them up, prepare their meals, and simply play or have fun with them. I might get home late in the evening or start work early, but I go home to sleep every night and I have about half the month off. Also, I am separated from their father, so they spend one week with him every other week, meaning I have one week off every two weeks.

    Je souhaite que la jeune fille puisse déposer les enfants à l'école (20 min de vélo électrique) ou les récupérer, leur faire à manger et simplement jouer ou s amuser avec eux. Il peut arriver que je rentre tard en soirée ou je commence tôt mais je rentre dormir chez moi tous les soirs et je suis off la moitié du mois environ.
    Également, je suis séparée du papa et donc ils sont une semaine avec lui une semaine sur 2, il y a donc une semaine off toutes les 2 semaines.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We're currently settling into our new apartment, which is located right on the banks of the Marne River. It's just been completely renovated (message me if you need more photos). It's spacious and very bright. Each of us has a large bedroom. There's a balcony for getting some fresh air or reading outdoors, overlooking nature. All three meals a day will be available to the Workawayer, whether it's a meal prepared in advance or a fully stocked fridge. We can also cook together and share our respective traditional dishes. I enjoy cooking with fresh ingredients, even if it's just a simple meal. We can share a meal together in the evening or at lunchtime, depending on our schedules. My children and I love baking, and we'd be happy to share with our guest. If there are any specific foods or things you'd like to eat, I can add them to the shopping list.

    Nous sommes en plein aménagement de notre nouvel appartement qui se situe juste en bord de Marne. Il vient d'être refait complètement à neuf( demande en message si besoin de plus de photos).
    Il est spacieux et très lumineux.
    Chacun dispose d une grande chambre.
    Il y a un balcon pour prendre l'air ou lire en extérieur donnant sur la nature.

    Les 3 repas par jour seront a la disposition du workawayers, que ce soit repas a disposition ou un frigo plein à disposition. Nous pourrons également cuisiner ensemble pour découvrir nos plats traditionnels respectifs. J'aime cuisiner avec des produits frais même si il s'agit parfois de faire un repas simple.
    Nous pouvons partager un repas ensemble le soir ou au déjeuner selon nos plannings.

    Mes enfants et moi aimons faire des gâteaux, c'est avec plaisir que de partager avec notre invité.

    Si il y a des aliments ou des choses a manger spécifique que vous aimez je peux les ajouter a la liste de courses.

    What else ...

    We can spend time together during our free time or simply enjoy the space in the apartment. I have a car that I can lend occasionally, and I have an electric bike that our guest can use.


    Nous pouvons partager des moments pendant les temps libre ou simplement profiter de l'espace dans l'appartement.
    Je dispose d'une voiture que je prête de manière ponctuelle et j'ai un vélo électrique qui peut être utilisé par notre invité.
