Description
We have a 1 yr boy called Charlie Ocean and 2 girls aged 10 and 13. Our 2 girls live in the center of Paris during the week and then come to our country house the weekend. The 2 girls are autonomous, fun and sweet.
We live in a large house in a beautiful part of the Yvelines. Many bedrooms, large spaces, indoor and outdoor, 150 trees, woodlands, no pollution. We have mini goats (Muffin, Plum, Pirate and Nesquik) and a few rabbits that live their lives in freedom :-).
Most young people go to Paris on the weekends, which will probably be a nice routine for any young helpers . We don't really need to enlighten you about the things to do in Paris !!!!!!
We are at least 2 days a week in Paris, we love travelling.. I love sports, science, swimming, Julians loves restaurants, music and discovering new places.
Holly and Summer (my children) love dance, Japan and swimming. Charlie Ocean loves milk, sleeping and late night parties.
If you are open, take initiatives, conscientious and hard working, you will have the most enjoyable experience joining our family. You will be treated very well and respected as well as an integrated part of our family for the few weeks you would be with us. Help particularly with gardens and trees and handiwork required. We can change our triple cultures of france, Uk and Brazil :-).

HI, we are a family living outside Paris and have a small domain that needs taking care of. We have different swimming pools, forests, a small island, and a biggish house. We are looking for anyone who is interested in helping out with maintenance, woof cutting, building, some light construction and even babysitting with our 6 month old Charlie Ocean. We are very open and come from different cultural backgrounds (Brazil, Wales) however we have lived a while in France. Ok for a couple or even a family travelling.
