Description
Hi, I’m Ríona, I’m an Irish yoga teacher living in the north of Spain in a village just outside Santander. I’m a single parent to Three children aged 9, 5 and 20 months and I'm looking for someone to help with childcare and general household duties in August.
I’m also keen to find an AU PAIR TO STAY WITH US FROM SEPTEMBER TO JUNE.
I have a considerably big garden to manage and I’m keen to find people who can bring their skills and knowledge to help me make the most of it. I also have ongoing minor diy jobs around the house such as painting, fixing things, reorganisation which I’d love to have help with.Types of help and learning opportunities

Help
I need someone for babysitting and general household help like cleaning up after mealtimes and getting everyone in and out of the house on a day to day basis. I need someone energetic and keen to play and have fun with the children. We speak English at home but the children are bilingual. There’s plenty of opportunity to pick up some Spanish around here too.

You will have a large double room with en-suite toilet on the upstairs floor of our house. There’s also a separate kitchen on that floor which you can use.
I will offer food and board.What else ...
We’re a low screen family and we seldom watch tv and I would expect people to not use their phones or tablets when with the children unless absolutely necessary.
