Help
Looking for someone to help our children keep up their Spanish. We have 3 children - 16, 14 and 12. My husband and I work away frequently hence requiring the help while we are away. Mainly early mornings before school / college and evenings when the children get home from school and have after school sport in the evening.
Some help with cleaning would also be appreciated. In exchange you will get free accommodation and food.
Will only consider non smokers and Spanish/English speakers. We lived in Spain for eight years and would like our kids to keep up their Spanish language, someone with this kind of experience would be an added benefit. -

English: Fluent
Spanish: Beginner -
Accommodation
We have a self contained annexe where the grandparents currently occupy but they’re heading abroad soon - hence why we require help. We also have a large Motorhome that can be used for accommodation also.

What else ...
We are located on the edge of the New Forest and Southampton is a 30min bus journey where there are English schools you can sign up to if you wanted to do a few lessons a week when the kids are at school. It's a beautiful area down here and the forest has ponies, donkeys, cows and pigs roaming freely. The kids love to adventure in the forest and there are some lovely walks and cycles too.
