  Description

  Hi! We are a family of four who loves travelling, but travelling is not always possible. So why not to host people from all over the world?
  
  We are Eva and Francesco, parents of Teo and Oona (8+ and 4+). We are raising our children as bilingual, speaking Italian and English. That's why we would like to host a person who can help with the kids few hours per day, in English. It's not important to be a mother tongue, but a good English level is preferred.
  
  We've just moved to a new house in the country side which is still a work in progress, of course, but we are taking care of that. We are surrounded by hills and there are few natural sites around to be explored. We can offer a bed in a room with mezzanine, or a space for camping. The toilet will be shared.
  
  The house is 5 minutes driving from Ibla, but there are no busses passing by. So when needed, we can mostly drive you to Ragusa or to Ibla. From Ragusa and Ibla there are also busses to Marina, and from Ragusa only there are busses to Catania, Palermo, Siracusa. During summer Ibla is a busy and touristic place.
  
  We can give you suggestions about what's around .

  Help

  So we are looking for someone to help with kids in English, and some help at home (keeping the kitchen clean ) like 3/4 hours per day (we will plan together whether in the morning or in the afternoon and during which days), 5 days per week. Sometimes we could go to the beach all together. All in exchange of a room, shared meals, free transportation when is needed.
  Ask for more info if interested.
  Minimum stay should be two weeks, to have some continuity for the kids.
  Better if you enjoy kids company, of course.
