Description
We are an international family (Swedish, Argentinian, English) living in the beautiful countryside in Mallorca. We have sons 10 and 8 who love swimming football and rubiks cubes at the moment. Our house is large with 5 bedrooms and we have land around the house with beautiful olive and almond trees and chickens. Great for nature lovers! There are lots of lovely villages around and the interesting and historic capital of Palma is only half an hour away on the train. There are lots of great trails nearby for hiking and cycling and the beaches are half an hour drive away.

Help
We are looking for someone who is good at taking care of and creating positive relationships with children. I need help now in the summer when I am working for someone to stay and play with the children. The help will entail playing with the children, supervising when they are swimming or helping to tidy up and clean or fold laundry or help to prepare simple meals. Normally you will be with the children in the morning and free in the afternoons although my work schedule sometimes changes. I can drive you to the train station or bus station if you want to go visit different areas. If we go to the beach I can bring you along. We are looking for someone independent, kind and willing to help, someone tidy and with good manners to make living together pleasant.

Accommodation
You will have your own lovely bedroom with a desk and storage space. We have WiFi and air conditioning, although the house is quite insulated so is not normally necessary. It is usually cool to sleep at night. We have a pool for swimming. We eat healthy fresh food with mostly organic fruit and veg. From time to time we eat meat and fish. We look forward to sharing meals together and sharing life stories and experiences.
What else ...
Our house is in the countryside. To get from our house to the nearby towns is about a 10 minute bike ride and to the town of Inca it’s about a 5 minute bike ride. We are near the town of Inca and the villages of Mancor, Biniamar, Selva and Binissalem. In Inca there are lots of shops and a train station and bus terminal. The villages are quaint and lovely and there are lots of great hiking and cycling trails nearby. The main city Palma is 30 mins away by train from Inca.
We like going out into nature and hiking with the children. We expect people to respect us and our home and to speak appropriately in front of the children.
We are looking for work away people with good references from previous experiences.
