  Description

  Hi!
  I’m looking for a responsible au pair to help with my two children in Verona (Italy) from May to October.
  I offer:
  • €300 pocket money/month
  • Private room and private bathroom
  • Car available (fuel covered up to €50/week)
  • Free evenings and weekends
  • Many free weeks during summer
  
  I’m looking for someone serious, independent, reliable, and with a driver’s license (this is essential).
  If you just want a holiday, this is not the right place.
  If you are ready to help and enjoy a great experience in Italy, feel free to contact me!
  We are happy to welcome someone who can become part of our daily life with respect and positivity.
  
  We are a small but lively family of three: me, a hands-on and resourceful dad, and my two children, aged 9 and 6. We live in a spacious house in the countryside, near Verona, and enjoy both outdoor adventures and quiet, relaxing moments at home.
  
  As a family, we love sailing—whether it’s out at sea or on the lake—and we often go on bike rides or spend time in the mountains. At the same time, we appreciate unwinding at home, making the most of our big garden and the peaceful surroundings.
  
  We’re looking forward to welcoming someone who shares our love for life and can help create a positive and joyful atmosphere for my children.
  
  We live nearby Verona, a tourist destination from all over the world, half an hour's drive away is Lake Garda to the west and east, the city of Venice is an hour away.

  The au pair who joins our family will participate in our daily life, providing her with an immersive experience in Italian culture. She will have the opportunity to visit some of the most beautiful places in our country and will certainly learn about sailing as well. We also look forward to discovering new cultures and perspectives through her presence.

  Help

  I am looking for an au pair to help me during the summer, from May to September, with my two children and my house.
  
  The responsibilities will include taking them to school from May to June, and then from June to September, caring for them during the hours when I am at work. There will also be plenty of free time, as the children are with me only three days a week and one weekend on, one weekend off.
  
  At the end of June and in July, we will be spending a few weeks sailing in the Mediterranean, and the au pair will be more than welcome to join us if she wishes.
