    We are looking for someone to take care of Léonore : Eloise is opening her restaurant and Loic has to work away sometimes for concerts and rehearsals with the choir.
    Our baby is really sweet and easy to take care of. You will have to feed her, change her, play and watch her during her time awake. When she's asleep, you can help with the house : meals, cleaning, laundry etc... and sometimes a little work outside in the garden will be nice.
