  Davide is going to primary school 5 mornings per week from 9 to 15:00; 2 afternoons per week he has also got after school up to 6 pm, and other 3 afternoons is busy with different sports. He's a very dynamic boy, he loves every kind of physical activity. He's got a passion for planets, rockets, Lego and everything with an engine. Other of his favourite things to do are reading, swimming, drawing and playing on the beach or in the garden. Sean is attending the creche with a flexible timing, usually from 9 to 5:30 pm.
  Both kids have English as first language and they preferentially communicate in English.
  As a family we enjoy doing trekking, visiting museums, going out to fairs, events and concerts and we will be happy if you join us. Please contact us for more details about our life!

  What else ...

  We hosted aupairs before from several European countries and that has been an amazing experience for all of us, we're still in contact with them and they became like big sisters for Davide and Sean. You could learn English and living in a foreign country surrounded by the warmth of an Italian family.
  We don't have intolerance or allergies, we have a complete diet and we would like that our aupair has no limitation as well.
  
  Soggiornando nella nostra famiglia avresti la possibilità di imparare l'inglese e di vivere un'esperienza in un paese straniero sentendoti accolta dal calore di una famiglia italiana.
  Siamo simpatici, alla mano e a casa nostra si mangia come in un ristorante ;-)
  Non abbiamo intolleranze o allergie, mangiamo davvero tutto e chiediamo che anche la nostra aupair non abbia limitazioni
