Description
My name is Madeleine. I live in the northern part of Sweden, in a small village called Pajala. Pajala is located above the Arctic circle.
I live with my three kids. A son,10 years old. And twins (boy and girl), 8 years old.
The oldest kid has a father and lives with his father every other week. The twins live with me full time and don’t have another parent.
We also have a cat and a dog. 🐈🐕
I work as a preschool teacher, love having kids around me. ☺️
We live in a nice house with lovely neighbors.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We have a lot to offer here in the northern part of Sweden. Icehotel not far away from Pajala, reindeers, snow, northern lights, snowmobiles, skiing, nature around the corner. And during the summer we have the midnight sun. The sun never sets so it’s bright outside 24/7. ☀️

Help
Being a single mom I have a lot on my hands. I’d love to get some help picking up the kids earlier from school.
Some household chores and sometimes babysit the other kids so I can do something with one child, like go swimming with only one of them and have some quality time. ☺️
The twin boy has autism (grade 1, light autism) and adhd so some experience is wanted.

She was absolutely a great help for me during her stay here. She saw what needed to be done in the house and the way she connected with my kids brought me to tears of joy.
