Hello
We are a family from the state of Jura and we speak french. Priority for people speaking french (for the children).
We can host you (nice room in a big house next to the nature) in exchange of help with differents things like to cook, to clean the house, to fold the laundry, (2-3 times a week), to clean the kitchen (after dinner), to make differents houseworks like gardenning, cleaning the car, etc. We need help with our beautiful children, too! Even if there are at school and by nanny.
We are a family with two children (Colin, 9 years old & Lou, 6 year old). Pascal is a feldenkrais praticioner and stage director. Aline is a massotherapist, pSYCH-K facilitator and social worker.
We speak French together and Pascal speak a little bit Swiss German with the children. We both understand English and Spanish, too.
In exchange we offer you to be part of our family, to have you own room and bathroom, to be in a big and nice house with garden next to the forest and to have food and advises to visit Switzerland. We are a nice family ;-)
Ask us if you want to know more about us :-)
We are living in a really nice place called courtetelle in a wild region of Switzerland. It is far away of the alps/city but if you like the wild country and walk and be in contact with mother nature, it's the perfect place.
