    Description

    Hello,

    We are Regula and Kevin and live in Chur, Canton of Grisons, Switzerland. We are an active, travel and outdoor-loving family with three children (11, 9, and 4 years old). Our eldest son, Nino, is in freeschooling, our daughter Nayla (9) goes to school, and Ronja (4) is still at home. We are looking for help with household chores and childcare.

    What we offer:

    - Accommodation and meals (healthy food, including vegetarian options)
    - Family activities with plenty of time spent outdoors and on sports
    - The opportunity to explore Switzerland – for example, only 1.5 hours to Zurich, 1 hour to St. Gallen, 1.5 hours to Ticino, and 20 minutes to the mountains for skiing and hiking.
    - A sustainable lifestyle (nutrition, house and car)

    Why you should stay with us: We offer a friendly atmosphere, lots of outdoor activities, and the chance to experience life in the Swiss Alps. We look forward to shared experiences!
