  Description

  Hi there! We’re a warm, fun, outdoorsy family based in Seville (Andalucía, Spain) with three lively kids, ages 7, 8 and 10. We speak English and Italian at home, and the children are learning German and Spanish in school.
  We’re looking for a reliable, responsible young woman who
  - is happy to speak German with the kids
  - has a valid driving licence, enjoys being active, outdoors and helping children in the afternoons driving them to their various activities they have.
  We value a low-screen, high-interaction lifestyle: someone who will engage with the kids, get them to their afternoon activities, help a little around the house, rather than just sitting on the sofa scrolling.
  We offer a live-in exchange (language + culture exchange):
  You’d live with us in our comfortable home, just a short walk from the metro, with a private bedroom and shared bathroom.
  We provide breakfast, lunch and dinner on weekdays, and breakfast on weekends.
  In exchange, your help would be afternoons with children + light household chores, use our family car to drive the children to their activities, once a week maybe give lunch to the kids.
  Weekends are free for you to explore Seville, take English or Spanish classes, or just go out and meet some new friends.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Hello, we are a multilingual family (we speak English and Italian at home) and live in Sevilla, Spain. We are offering a nice place to stay to learn the local language, Spanish, outside and even some English or Italian at home. We are looking for a responsible girl speaking in German (native tongue) to our children so that they can improve this language, to stay with them and help us out taking them to the various activities in the afternoon (that's why driving experience and driving licence is a must). You will be working in the afternoon (Monday to Friday, but on Friday less), the rest of the day is free to do some language classes or just to just enjoy the city. The weekend is completely free for you to do whatever you prefer. Sevilla is well connected to other cities in andalucia to explore, like Cadiz, Cordoba, Granada and the south of Portugal, Algarve, is very close as well.

  - Valid driving licence and comfortable driving children
  - Enjoys being active/outdoors and playing/interacting with kids

  We offer a nice quite place to stay and study or work (we leave in a big house with a garden very close to a metro stop to go in town). We love spending time outdoors — walking, biking, exploring local nature, enjoying family time. Our home is friendly, kind and international in spirit. We place high value on kindness, reliability and a genuine connection.
