Description
We are Costanza, Matteo, Giulio (2016) Arturo (2018) and Pongo from Rome, Italy.
I am a teacher/educator and we'll need the a helper to tidy up the house after the kids and play/engage with them when needed.
Matteo is an digital strategist in a creative agency, we are an open and easy going family, we use to have friend over for lunch/dinner, we love going to concert and to take walks in beautiful Lazio area.
He/she will vary rarely stay alone with the kids in the house, but in exceptional cases or in the few evening we would go out for dinner, cinema or a concert - but usually we always leave only after the babies are asleep.
We have a nice couple helping us with house cleaning only once a week, so we'll need some help in daily housekeeping activities (such as family laundry, keeping the kitchen clean, hygiene, cooking for the kids/family, tidy up after the kids/husband (!), feed the dog, grocery shopping, swiping the floor or terrace, etc.).
Pongo is our dog, he is very friendly, love the kids and generally human being, he is very social, so be prepared in having him coming over to you asking for cuddle, sneezing, running after you if you go for a walk, sitting on your lap in the car, etc. to join us you need to accept this as he is part of the family and lives in the house.
We love to live in a tidy, organised and welcoming place and we are both coming from numerous families, so we are used to share space, time and experiences.
We might spend some time in the city of Milan, in Tuscany and on the Lake of Como where our families come from to share good time with them. It could be a good occasion for you to visit different places in Italy.
Further more during summer period (June-September) we will be travelling between Rome, Sardinia, lake of Como and Switzerland for summer holiday. This will permitted the workaway to see new places, having fun with the kids, but please consider it will tide her/him to the different family activities and routines.Types of help and learning opportunities
