  Description

  My name is Emma, ​​I am 34 years old, my husband is Boubacar he has 36 years old and we are the parents of a little boy Ilan, 4 years old, and a little girl, Thilo, 2 years old. I am a midwife and passionate about my profession and recently Boubacar quitted his job and he is starting a new training soon.
  We are a multicultural French-Senegalese family. Sharing life with other people is something that we really like because it is an enrichment for us to exchange with people from different cultures and backgrounds.
  
  Concerning the help we will need, this concerns being able to look after the children for a few hours/week (in addition to the school where my son is 4 days/week + the nanny where my daughter goes 4 days/week), + being able to free us up about 1 evenings/week to go to the gym. We also need someone who helps make meals, tidy the house, and do a little cleaning from time to time as needed.
  In fact we need someone who is in the mindset every day of "how can I help make their day easier", who takes initiative and who loves to play , is creative with children!
  
  In return we offer possibility to explore here a magnificent place, with beautiful river and moutains. We offer pleasant simple time cooking together, sharing experiences, talking, spending family time together!

  Help

  I really need a mature person ready to come and help me lighten my daily life by spending time with the children so that I can free myself a little bit of time, by making certain meals, by cleaning sometimes...it would be such a precious help for us!
  I am looking for a person who likes sharing simple moments of life, discussions, who is in an approach of mutual aid and solidarity. I love sharing my daily life with people other than just my family, it’s a real asset for me! Life should be always like that!

  What else ...

  We live in Crest, a magnificent valley in the Drôme, at the foot of the Vercors Mountains. There are splendid walks to do all around. You can easily get around by bike or by transport (bus/train). In winter, the ski slopes are 1 hour away and in spring our magnificent turquoise river offers wonderful swimming spots.
  We are only 2.5 hours by train from Paris, so surrounded by nature but not isolated! It is a region very oriented towards ecology, with many cultural events and a rich associative life
