Description
Hello! My name is Ciara, my husbands name is Felix and our little one (22 months) is named Feeli. We run a buisness so are usually quite busy . We love to take walks with our two dogs, Jasper and Manolo and to spend time with our cats at home. We are vegan and live in a completely vegan household. We are easy going and enjoy getting to know new people. I am from the USA, but have been living in Spain for the past 5 years which is where Felix is from, so at home we speak primarily English and sometimes Catalan, and my husband also speaks Spanish.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Gardening
Babysitting and creative play
Creating/ Cooking family meals
Help around the house
Animal Care
Language practice
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You will have the opportunity to practice Spanish/ Catalan, if you choose to. Where we live is a small village, so you would get to experience an authentic part of Spain, not a touristic part. We live about an hour from Barceona and an hour from the boarder of France and 20 minutes from Girona (there is a good bus system). Our village also has a really nice park and is great for hiking or biking (we have bikes that you'd be more than welcome to use)

Help
We are looking for someone to help out with our son Feeli, he is quite timid and takes a little to warm up to people so we prefer to get someone who has been around young children before. The idea would be to "work" from 9-1 Monday through Friday and then have the rest of the time to yourself. During your "work" hours your primary responsibility would be to play with Feeli, take him to the park, color, play cars etc. some other responsiblities may include walking the dogs, pulling weeds, cooking, light cleaning, running to the shop down the street, or maybe some other small everyday household chores.

Accommodation
My husband and I have a big house which is divided into two floors. Downstairs there is a lovely couple that works for our company and upstairs is where we live along with our son, dogs, and one cat (we have more outdoor cats) . You would have your own bedroom with two individual beds in it and a desk as well as your own bathroom. Our household is 100% vegan (we dont allow any animal products in the house)
What else ...
We would be able to drive you to the train station, airport, or local cities when we are available, there is also a good bus system here. There are many sites to see and a big park in our town.
