  Help

  I am looking for a Spanish/English speaker with basic Italian understanding for a no English speaker family with basic understanding of Spanish, who can assist me with childcare duties.
  I work part time 4 days in and 4 days off (so plenty of free time! ) between 4/5am and 12/1pm.
  I am mainly looking for someone to wake up and bring the kid to school in the morning during school days and to keep him company in the morning until lunch time during off-school days while I’m at work.
  I am ideally looking for someone willing to stay 6+ months
