    Description

    Dear Au Pair,
    We are a positive, active, and adventurous family of four living in the beautiful coastal area of Gran Alacant (Alicante). We are looking for a responsible and cheerful English-speaking girl to join our home this summer for a cultural and language exchange.
    Who we are & What we are looking for
    Our family consists of two energetic children (aged 2 and 4) who are at the perfect age to soak up a new language. We are looking for someone who loves children and wants to become a temporary member of our family.
    Your main role will be to interact with our kids in English—playing, singing, and sharing daily routines—so they can learn naturally. As part of our daily life, we also expect light help with household chores (such as keeping the kids' areas tidy, helping with their meals, or light kitchen help) to keep our home organized and happy.
    Location: Mediterranean Living
    We live in a privileged spot. Gran Alacant offers stunning beaches like Los Arenales del Sol, a beautiful lighthouse with walking trails, and a vibrant international atmosphere. You will have plenty of sun, sea, and easy access to Alicante city (15 mins away). It’s the perfect place for a summer experience!
    What we offer (Terms & Conditions)
    In accordance with Spanish Au Pair guidelines, we provide:
    Your own private room and full board (all meals included).
    70 € per week as pocket money.
    Free time: You will have plenty of time to explore the area, go to the beach, or attend Spanish language courses. We will respect the 30-hour weekly limit and ensure you have at least one full day off per week.
    Language Exchange: We are eager to help you practice your Spanish and show you our local culture and gastronomy.
    We are looking for someone proactive, organized, and ready for a fun Mediterranean summer. If you love the beach and enjoy working with young children, we would love to hear from you!
    Warm regards,
    David&Miriam family

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are a joyful, adventurous family of four living in beautiful Gran Alacant, right by the Mediterranean Sea. We love the outdoors! You are welcome to join us for sunset walks by the lighthouse, beach days at El Carabassí, or exploring the vibrant city of Alicante (just 15 mins away). We want you to feel like part of the family, sharing meals and local traditions with us.
    What we can share with you
    Spanish Immersion: We’d love to help you practice your Spanish in a natural, relaxed way.
    Local Lifestyle: We can show you the best "hidden gems" of the Costa Blanca and teach you how to cook a real Mediterranean paella!
    Home Comforts: A cozy room in a positive environment with our two friendly cats.
    What we hope to learn
    We want our children (aged 2 and 4) to grow up seeing English as a fun way to connect with the world. We are looking for someone to bring their energy, stories, and culture into our home. We love learning about different perspectives and making new international friends!
