  • Description

    Description

    We are a small family who divides our time between Istanbul during the winter and our summer house in Karaburun, Izmir. We have a lively and curious 5-year-old son who loves to play and explore.

    Our summer house is a detached home with a garden, consisting of 4 bedrooms. It is located in a quiet and peaceful area within a community that has its own private beach. We are currently looking for someone to join us only during July or August.

    We’re seeking a kind and energetic play-sister who can help our son practice English through fun and engaging activities. The role involves spending 4 hours a day, 5 days a week with him. Additionally, we’d appreciate your help with light household tasks as part of our daily routine.

    In return, you’ll be welcomed as a member of our family and enjoy living in a serene, beautiful environment near the sea. We’re excited to share our culture, home, and way of life with you!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Staying with us offers a unique opportunity to experience Turkish culture, the serene coastal town of Karaburun in the summer.

    You’ll get to enjoy traditional Turkish hospitality, taste delicious home-cooked meals, and learn about our customs and way of life. If you’re interested, we’d be happy to teach you how to prepare classic Turkish dishes or share stories about our culture and history.

    In Karaburun, you’ll have the chance to experience the slower pace of life in a small seaside town, enjoy the private beach in our community, and explore the natural beauty of the Aegean coast.

    Help

    We are looking for someone who can spend time with our 5-year-old son, engaging him in fun and creative activities to help him practice English. This could involve playing games, reading books, drawing, or any other age-appropriate activities that spark his curiosity and make learning enjoyable.

    In addition to spending time with our son, we would also appreciate help with light household tasks, such as tidying up shared spaces, assisting with meal preparation, or watering plants in the garden.

    The ideal person is someone who is patient, caring, and has a natural way with children. We’d love for you to feel like part of our family and enjoy the experience as much as we do!
