Description
My name is Aine and I'm Irish and I am married to an italian called Fabio. We have 3 kids, James is 14yrs, Elisabetta is 12yrs and Jack is 4yrs. We have lived here for 12 years. We have a casa vacanza with a swimming pool and we there is a lovely couple from workaway that have come to help us every summer for the last 5 years. They are like family for us. I need someone in the winter that can be the same for me and the kids. Fabio works outside of Italy so he is away a lot. I need support with the kids because I work for myself so I need someone that can really help with daily life. I have a business in Ireland so I need to be able to travel one a month for a week, I usually bring the 4 year old with me. The older kids are very independent so most of the help is required in the afternoon dropping them and picking them up from activities and when I'm not here also making dinner. During the day you are free to explore the area. We have 150 small olive trees that we hope to harvest this year so you can help with this too. There is a big garden so if you like to do some gardening you can.
