    Description

    We live in a very quiet, family-friendly area, 15 minutes from the center of Valencia by bus. Our apartment is in a complex with a swimming pool, gym, and paddle tennis courts. We have a park for children to play in right outside our building, and a supermarket is also nearby. The school is a 10-minute walk from our apartment.

    Help

    We are a family of four: Mom, Dad, Noa (4 years old), and Leo (under 1 year old). We would love for you to help us with our 4-year-old daughter. You could take her to or pick her up from school and play with her at the park in the afternoons, or help us at home by keeping her entertained and talking to her in English. On weekends, we can do activities outside the house, and of course, you are welcome to join us or take the day off. During the day, I (Veronica, the mom) am on maternity leave, so I will be home and can help you with your Spanish lessons, and you can help me improve my English :) Win-win, of course! Or you can spend the day doing whatever you like until our daughter gets out of school. You don't have to take care of the baby under 1 year old, just the older one.


    Somos una familia de 4, mamá, papá Noa(4 años) Leo (menos de 1 año)Nos encantaría que nos ayudaras con nuestra hija de 4 años. Podrías llevarla o recogerla de la escuela y jugar con ella en el parque por las tardes, o ayudarnos en casa a mantenerla entretenida hablando con ella en inglés. Los fines de semana, podemos hacer actividades fuera de la casa, y por supuesto, le invitamos a unirse a nosotros o tomarse el día libre. Durante el día, yo (Veronica, la mamá) estoy en licencia de maternidad, así que estaré en casa y puedo ayudarte con las clases de español, y puedes ayudarme a mejorar mi inglés:) ¡Gana-gana, por supuesto! O puedes pasar el día haciendo lo que quieras hasta que nuestra hija salga de la escuela. No tienes que hacerte cargo del bebé de menos de 1 año, sólo de la mayor.

    You will have your own room and a shared bathroom with the child. Our house is very large, with two bathrooms, three bedrooms, and a 90-square-meter terrace. We enjoy cooking healthy meals for the three of us and would like to share meals with the au pair so they can enjoy homemade Mediterranean food. We especially love making paella, a typical Spanish dish, on weekends. We would also love for you to teach us some typical dishes from your culture. If you need to eat other things, that's perfectly fine.


    Tendrás una habitación propia y un baño compartido con la niña.
    Nuestra casa es muy grande, con 2 baños, 3 habitaciones y una terraza de 90 metros.

    Nos gusta cocinar sano para los 3 y nos gustaría compartir la comida con el au pair y que pueda disfrutar de comida casera mediterránea, nos gusta mucho hacer paella que es el plato típico español los fines de semana . También nos gustaría que nos enseñará algún plato típico de su cultura. Si necesita comer otras cosas puede hacerlo sin problema
