  Description

  I’m a mom of two homeschooled girls and I also work as a swimming instructor. I live in a 2 room appartment on floor level with a park and a pool accessible during summer (and fall and spring) My girls are half chilean so I would really want someone from latin america so they can continue to learn spanish! We live in a town where many free activities are enjoyable for free or at a really low cost. We have beaches, mountains and forests and a really cool down town city! My girls are 5 and 7 and really like getting to know new people!

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I am a tourist in my own town and I like to make you visit the most beautiful places we have here! I can tell you all the nicest spots to go to and you can always join in our activities! I like learning about your country and your langage! I can definitely teach you how to swim since the girls and I go to the pool once or twice a week (often more during summer!) We often have some board games night since we really love getting with our friends and sharing friends and family moments.

  Help

  A workawayer that would fit perfectly with us is someone independent that loves kids! I want someone that will babysit the girls when I work around 10h a week and will help in the cleaning of the house! If you can cook it’s a major quality that I will use to get to know the recipes from your country and I will teach you mine (carefull, there’s a lot of maple syrop in there ahaha) I want you to speak spanish to the girls and I can teach you french if you want! I’m not 24/7 at home since I also have a boyfriend who has it’s own place so when the girls are at their father’s place I’m often not at home so you have a little break of our crazy and fun life!

  Accommodation

  I’m giving you one of the room (usually mine) with a two places bed (if you travel with a kid I can have a little camp bed aside!) so you have your own room and I share some of the space for your clothes and personnal effects, but I would like to have access to the room during the day. Since my place is not a castle, all the rooms have to be common to all the living people in there ahaha i fill the fridge, you tell me if you need anything special and we cook depending on our schedule and time and motivation!

  What else ...

  I want you to feel like a member of the family, you’re precious to me and the girls and feel free to talk with me if there are any things that matters to you we will find a way! If you have a driver’s license valid in canada we can see if you keep my car some days! :) Since my house is « little » I want the windows to be cleared from curtains and that we let the light in for the plants and our mental healths ahaha I want communication most of everything. We will get to know each other and adjust as the time goes and if there is respect we can do almost everything!
