Description
Ciao
We are a family of 5: me,my husband and the 3 girls (Margherita 14,Giulia 13 and Carlotta 7).
The girls go to school from September ;til the beginning of June.
I work from home where i have a little office, but occasionally i have to go to meetings or site inspections. I am never away for long though.
We live in Milan city center where we mostly move during weekly activities.
A typical day would be:
The morning we do not need.
The afternoon (16:30-19:00); sometimes collect the smallest from school and take them to any after school activities. Once home, play with them.
The evening (19:00-19:30); i may need a hand preparing dinner even though i do normally cook myself.
After dinner, which we will all eat together,you can happily spend the evening with us or go to your studio.Not more than once a week,we may ask you to stay the evening after dinner if me and my husband want to go out.
During the weekend you are free, (apart from very rare occasions when we may need you..) in these days we would arrange if and when to eat together.
Out of school time (10th June to mid September more or less) and when the school is closed for Christmas and Easter holidays,we would like it if at times you could come away with us: we have a house in the mountains, near Champuluc, a 2 hour drive from Milan and also a house by the sea.
Obviously if at times we need you more then we will discuss it at the time.
Our apartment is on the 4th floor, we have instead a little studio flat for the au pair on the 1st floor of the same building. It consists of a lounge, a bedroom and bathroom.It doesn't have a kitchen but there is a washing machine and fridge.
It's as if you are with us,just on a different floor.It is your responsability to keep it clean and you are not allowed to invite whoever you want.
