    I'm CRISTINA mother of 4 childrens. In this moment, in the house with me lives Irene an extraordinary girl with slight paresis right and intellectual disability. Irene is my youngest daughter and she is 17 years old.
    I am a nurse and I work only in the morning. In the afternoon, I dedicate me to Irene. We have fun walking in nature, cycling, going to the park, to the library, basket play, etc.
    In my free time I practice yoga and I feed on walks in the hills.
    I am a sunny and welcoming person :)
    Faenza is a city full of works of art and ancient buildings. There is a lot of green and you can get around very well by bike. The apartment we live in is located in a very quiet area. We have three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living room, a kitchen, two terraces, large shared garden.
    I had a lot of experiences with au pairs and it was an experience that allowed us a wonderful exchange.

    Sono CRISTINA mamma di 4 figli. Abito in un appartamento a Faenza con mia figlia più piccola Irene di 17 anni. E' una ragazza straordinaria con una paresi destra e disabilità intellettiva.
    Sono infermiera e lavoro solo di mattina. Il pomeriggio lo dedico a Irene, ci divertiamo a passeggiare in natura, girare in bicicletta, andare al parco, in biblioteca, giocare a basket ecc....
    Nel tempo libero pratico yoga e mi nutro di passeggiate in collina.
    Sono una persona solare ed accogliente.
    Faenza è una città ricca di opere d'arte e palazzi antichi, c'è molto verde e si riesce a girare molto bene in bici. E' una citta' molto viva ricca di eventi artistici, musicali....
    L'appartamento in cui viviamo è situato in una zona molto tranquilla. E' spazioso ha tre camere da letto, due bagni, una sala, una cucina, due terrazzi, e un ampio giardino in comune.
    Ho avuto diverse esperienze con ragazze e ragazzi alla pari ed è stata un'esperienza che ci ha permesso uno scambio meraviglioso.

    I'm looking for a volunteer eager to build a relationship with my daughter Irene, spending time with her going for walks outside, recreational activities, cognitive activities, and games. When Irene is not present I ask for help with the care of the house (cleaning, shopping, cooking). I generally ask for cooperation for 5 hours a day for 5 days a week, Saturdays and Sundays are totally free. It is very important that the person I will welcome is female and speaks Italian well enough to communicate better with Irene.

    Cerco una volontaria desiderosa di creare relazione con mia figlia Irene, trascorrendo del tempo con lei facendo passeggiate all'esterno, attività ludico-creative, cognitive, giochi.
    Quando Irene non è presente chiedo aiuto per la cura della casa (pulizie, fare spesa, cucinare).
    In genere chiedo collaborazione per 5 ore al giorno per 5 giorni la settimana, il sabato e la domenica sono totalmente liberi. È molto importante che la persona che accoglierò sia di sesso femminile e parli abbastanza bene l'italiano per riuscire a comunicare al meglio con Irene.

    What else ...

    We provide a bicycle for travel. We are in the heart of Emilia Romagna, a vibrant region with lots to offer visitors and those who live here. The town of Faenza is famous for its ceramics (indeed, the French word for ceramics, "faience", comes from this town!). The town is very livable, full of events for young people like concerts, bars, cultural events. The famous art towns in the region like Bologna, Ravenna (famous for its mosaics), Rimini, Parma, Modena, Ferrara are easily accessible by train (all less than an hour away with easy train connections). Additionally, access to the larger Italian art cities like Florence (2 hours away by train over the mountains as we are just 100 km from Florence), Venice (3 hours away by train), Rome (3 hours away by fast train). The beach is nearby with easy access as well.
