  Description

  Hello :)
  
  We are a French family of 4 : the dad Marvin, 34, the mother Héloïse, 29, and our daughter, 5,5yo and our puppy Freyja.
  
  Our daughter is homeschooled / worldschooled so we travel a lot with her. Back at home for the moment, we still try to do 1 trip a month. We would love for her to have people from all around the world, with kids or not, coming to our home. We would love to meet people with all kind of interests so that she could learn about them.
  
  We do not smoke (and I used to.) so no smoking is allowed in the house or the garden.
  
  We would be happy to have you and your kids at home.

  Help

  We would like for you to take care of our daughter and / or our puppy a few hours per week (no more than 10 hours and not everyday). We can talk about what you can offer and see what works best for everyone.
  Your help is expected around the house like cleaning your room and the bathroom when you use it, offering your help to cook.
  Bonus point if you can help us improve our English or learn another language!

  We would offer you 3 meals a day. We try to reduce our consumption of meat so we only eat it 2/3 times a week.
  
  We have a garden you are free to use as you want (except for smoking).
  Our house is unfortunately not wheelchair friendly, due to lots of stairs.

  During your time off, you can enjoy the village, swimming pool, library, and walks.
  If you want to, you can come with us during our homeschool-meetings (English and montessori classes, play dates...) or to our visits of the nearby cities and nature.
