Description
Hello! we are a family with two kids and a cat. My husband and I can speak English, we are both engineers and work from home most of the time. Our home is located 30 minutes from Barcelona by train, in a small town between the beach and the mountains. You will have a private room, kitchen, and bathroom and a shared gym, and a garden with a small orchard. We are looking for native English speakers, easy-going, mature, independent, and responsible helpers that love being with kids. Preferred length of stay: 1 to 3 months.

We have an orchard and chickens, we can show you how to take care of them and collaborate in their maintenance.
We love to cook and eat, we can share recipes and teach you how to cook typical dishes, pastries, bread, and fermented foods.

Help
We are a working couple with two daughters who need collaboration to have personal time and quality time with the girls. We can welcome guests of two profiles (or both at the same time):
1. To help with DIY tasks and gardening in our house.
2. To help with the care of the girls preferably in English. We are looking for a English speaker to help with children aged 8 and 1,5. They are in school until 16:30 but since we work full-time, we need support mostly between 16:30-18:30h
-Weekends free
We will need proven experience in taking care of small kids (1.5 years old).
Available from mid-May to first week of August.
