  Description

  We are a work in progress family ☺️ soon our second child will arrive to keep Arturo, 3 years old, company. I am a pre-school teacher and my husband is a master ice-cream maker. We have a beautiful cat called Tina, our dog Elly and some chickens.
  We love animals and nature and we live in a bucolic area of Trentino near Lake Ledro.
  We are simple people who love small things.
  My husband works all day away from home and I take care of the house, Arturo and this baby bump that grows every day. We love walking in the mountains on small excursions.

  Help

  We are looking for someone who can help me with the house chores and at the same time be a baby sitter for Arturo by encouraging conversation in the language.
  
  We have a big garden to take care of and from time to time help with the chicken coop or to take our dog for a walk.
  
  A person with a driving licence is preferable so that they can be more independent in helping the family.
  
  I am a teacher who loves children; I have a Montessori background and would like someone who deeply respects my child's time and rights. And maybe learn new skills myself from this ☺️
