Description
Long term volunteer preferred
Hello! I'm a single mom living in Valencia, Spain with my amazing 4 year old son, Samuel. I'm American and his father is Spanish, so he is absolutely bilingual. I help run a language center and work most afternoons /early evenings. I need someone dependable to stay with Samu while I am working. Ideally this person loves kids and is bilingual as well (English and Spanish), but as long as you can speak one of the languages that is fine. Samu is a funny, sweet, very clever, active, sometimes naughty, happy little guy. If you like kids, he is a pleasure to be around! I can arrange a schedule with you for the childcare hours so that you can maximize your free time. I work mostly in the afternoons and require someone with experience helping with young children. I would like to find someone for long-term, ideally for the school year. Short-term stays are not an option, as it is not ideal to change caretakers so often. In exchange for 10-15 hours a week, I can offer a fully furnished single bedroom at home. We are happy to show you around Valencia and share some secret Spanish recipes with you too!

Communication was good as well and working hours definitely not more than stated.
