  • Description

    Description

    We are a friendly Italian family of five living in Mondovì, a small and peaceful town in the north of Italy, close to the mountains and surrounded by nature.

    We have three children (10, 8 and 2.5 years old). The older ones go to school, while the youngest is lively and sweet.

    We offer a small independent apartment just below our home, so you will have your own private space while being part of our family life.

    We love living here because it’s quiet, safe and authentic, perfect if you enjoy nature and a relaxed lifestyle, but still want to experience real Italian culture and food.

    We are looking for a kind and responsible person who enjoys spending time with children and would like to share a simple and positive family experience with us.

    Help

    We are looking for help mainly with our children during the afternoons.

    Tasks include playing with them, helping the older kids with homework, and spending time with the youngest child. Occasionally, we may ask for light help related to the children, such as preparing or heating up a simple lunch, preparing a snack, or tidying up after activities.

    The main schedule is Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 1:00 pm to 6:00 pm during school time. During school holidays, we may also need some help in the morning.

    We usually do things together and we are happy to include you in our daily life. You will experience real Italian family life, and we are open to sharing culture, language and traditions.

    We are looking for a kind, responsible and positive person who enjoys being with children and becoming part of a family environment.

    Accommodation

    We provide a clean and comfortable independent small apartment just below our home. It offers privacy and your own personal space, while still being very close to our family.

    You will have everything you need for a comfortable stay.

    Regarding food, we provide meals and you are welcome to eat with us and be part of our daily family life. We are flexible and happy to organize things in a simple and relaxed way.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    During your free time, you can relax, explore the area, go for walks in nature or visit nearby towns. The mountains are very close, and the sea is only about 40 minutes away, so it’s a great place if you enjoy both outdoor activities and the beach.

    We often enjoy family time going on hikes in the mountains or spending days at the seaside, and you are very welcome to join us if you like.

    Villanova Mondovì is a small town but has everything you need, and larger cities can be reached if you want to explore more.

    We want you to feel comfortable, like part of the family, but also free to enjoy your own space and independence.
