  Description

  Hey there, we are Maeva and Pierre, a young couple living in Hossegor in the the south west of France.
  
  Maeva is a dance professor and Pierre is a photographer. We have a daughter that is just 10 months old and super lovely. We live between the forest and the sea, just a 15 minutes bike ride to the ocean (we got electric bikes with a surf rack ! ), 10 minutes to a beautiful lake and right in front of a huge pine tree forest.
  
  If you don't know about Hossegor, it's one of the surf capital of Europe and a beautiful and wild area of endless beaches, dunes and forest but still very much alive during winter times.
  
  We love the life here and would be happy to share it with someone who has experience and feels comfortable looking after our daughter when Maeva is working.
  
  We are really easy going and would want you to feel super at home, be yourself and feel comfortable living with us as a roommate
  
  NB Due to the fact that Maëva will be alone and that our daughter is so young we will only accept females for this role. We know that's a bit unfair but for our first time as hosts we will feel more comfortable

  Help

  Pierre is going away for 2 months for a course and will only be there on the weekends. As a result we need help babysitting Ana, our 10 month old daughter, 3 times a week when Maeva is working :
  Monday evening (4pm to 10pm)
  Tuesday evening (3pm to 10pm)
  Thursday evening (3.30pm to 6.30pm).
  
  And then some punctual help around the house with basic everyday tasks, and some extra times babysitting here and there.
  
  Aside from that you would be super free with an electric bike available, open kitchen, your own room...
  
  Because Ana is young and you would have to put her to sleep two times a week ( Monday and Tuesday), we want someone that is experienced with babies and really caring.
