Description
Hi
We are a family of 4, living near Nice, in the south of France.
Our house is in Aspremont, beautiful and quiet village, just 15 min from Nice by car or bus.
We are trying to do our part in terms of ecology, even if we have not yet given up traveling.
Traveling is a passion for us, that why I also registred as a workawayer...
We eat healthy organic food, we have 2 cats and several chickens
We have a little garden
I’m a doctor and my husband a mathematic teacher.
We have 2 boys, Merlin 13 years old and Barthélemy 11 years old. They are very nice and full of life. They are able to express themselves in English, and en Spanish
They are very sociable and affective.
Our wish is to share a piece of way with someone who ll take care of Barthelemy, when we are at work, help him for lessons (they are homeschooled) make them improve their English or Spanish
That is to say that you have to stay with him 5 hours per day during his « homeworks »
We try to use the non violent communication and accompany them in their life with kindness. Also we are interested to enrich ourselves with different cultures, points of view and hope be able to bring some great experience to the person who ll choose to join us
We like hiking. There are a lot of areas where you can have a ride from here. Biking is possible too. We have a swimming pool and you can just join the Mediterranean Sea by car or bus in 40 minutes.
Also the mountains aren’t too far and you can ski, between December to April in 1h15 by bus or car.Types of help and learning opportunities
Language practiceTeachingGardeningBabysitting and creative playCreating/ Cooking family mealsHelp around the houseCultural exchange and learning opportunities
You ll be a part of the family, but of course we ll respect if you need to be alone sometimes...
We are open minded and would like to exchange our culture with anyone interested in the same.
You can learn/improve your French
When I ll be at home, I can teach you the piano, some principles of naturopathy, some French /Nice famous recipesProjects involving children

Help
We need someone who really wants to take care of our child and help him in his learnings. Currently he is homeschooled and when we are working, you have to stay with him 5 hours a day for helping him to stay focus on their homework. The schedule will depend of the schedule of the father, That is to say that the schedule is variable...but for sure you ll be free the weekend and we ll expect your help around 25 hours no more
Cooking and help in the housework would be appreciate but the most important for us is that you are caring and loving with our kids. We want someone who don’t need to be asked to do something and really do the task with pleasure and serious.
And if you have some knowledge in gardening, permaculture, please help us and teach us themLanguages
