Description
Hi, I am a single father of 2 girls, aged 6 and 7, I would need someone to take of them between 3-5 hours a day, depending on the week, for 4 days a week, here in Mallorca(Spain), living 100 metres from a beach that is gorgeous, not only that, we would be doing excursions with them around the island and you would be invited too. We offer acomodation, food from our family owned restaurant, 2 meals a day, and depending on the hours you do, some spending money too. It’s an amazing opportunity for someone who likes sun, sea and kids. And what can I say about the girls?…..they’re just amazing, they have their ups and downs, but they are very grounded for their age, as I think, because I’m their Dad.

Help
I would need alternate weeks some babysitting from 12 until 15 and maybe 18 until 22 one week and the other week, only 12 until 15. For 4 days a week, as the mother is off 2 days a week and I am off 1 day a week.
Personally I would like someone that spoke either Spanish or English at least as a second language, with love for kids and adventure, I love to take them to the beach, park, pic-nic, etc, and I would expect the same from you, just have fun with them. I don’t like screens for my daughters and either the person taking care of them while they are with the girls. Your spare time it’s personal.

German: BeginnerThis host offers a language exchange
To be truthful I’m not very interested in learning/teaching a language, but for someone that wants to improve their Spanish, or English, it’s a fantastic opportunity, and if you like to teach too, I could learn a new language, it could be interesting.
Accommodation
This is still not 100% clear, I have a 2 bedroom apartment, one for the girls and one for me, but the girls sleep with me, in my bed, so there is an empty room.
If it was too tight or just uncomfortable for anybody, you or us, my mum has an apartment next door with a lounge where we could set up a bed too, I prefer to meet the person and hear their opinion to get to a better agreement.
Food wise, we have a restaurant open for 6 days a week and you could eat 2 meals a day there, it’s open from 12 pm until 22 pm, and the food is delicious, and I guess the weeks the girls sleep with me, we normally have pancakes every morning, as I love making it for them, and whoever is there too.
I am offering accommodation, and all the meals needed a day, 2 in a restaurant and the other at home
What else ...
With your time off you can do as you please, the beach is close, you can climb, kite surf, paddle surf, hike, etc… you name it, Mallorca has it.
As you see, I only talk about outdoors sports because I love them, I can rock climb and kite-surf, not only that, I can teach them too.

That is the least I can say of her. I was quite confident that she would be great for the girls, as she is a teacher, but not that good.
