Description
Hello!
We are a friendly family with a 18 month old boy. We both work so we need help with the baby and some help with the house.
We live in a village near Serra da Estrela, with a lot of nature around.
It is in Covilhã, a charming city with a big university which hosts students from many different countries. My wife has been a Workawayer herself and she loved the experience. We love having people with us and sharing experiences. English speaking is preferable :)
Types of help and learning opportunities
Language practice
Babysitting and creative play
Help around the house
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Covilhã is a great city to know people as it hosts Universidade da Beira Interior, a University known in many countries, hence the students from these countries.
There is a public library, nightlife, restaurants, theatre, many cultural and local attractions, and a lot of nature around. Local history is strong.
Help
We are looking for someone who can help with our son and some help with the house. The house is not big, so it is very easy to have things done.
Babysitting is not a full-time job, as our son goes to the nursery and we also love taking care of him. Maybe take him to the nursery ad pick him up every now and then. Oliver is a lovely boy. He is a very smiling and happy toddler and has an end-of-the-day routine every day.

We'd love to improve our English as we speak English with our son.
Accommodation
The Workawayer will have a private room and can have the meals at home.
What else ...
The area is full of nature and natural swimming pools, and it is a very sunny place in the summer. It is also a great place for hiking or cycling (we don't have a bicycle, sorry!).
We are 6km away from the city centre. Thr public transport is easy, there's a bus stop 2 minutes away and there are buses every 30 minutes. But we can always give you a ride if you need!
Also, we are 2 hours away from Spain.
