We live at a world heritage village, called San Lorenzo del Escorial, beautiful place on Madrid's Sierra de Guadarrama, located 50 km from Madrid downtown and very well connected by bus and train. It is a very touristic village full of life, restaurants, theaters and mountains , with very friendly and charm people.

Help
Hi!, This summer we are going to need some help with Rodrigo during holiday season.
We could accomodate during June, but help is needed form end of June, throughout July.
During July Rodrigo will be attending camp daily (Mon to Friday), from 10 to 14h, close to our home, walking distance. We will need your help to take him to camp , and bring him back home for lunch, during his stay at camp you have free time, no help needed.
We do not expect you to cook, lunch will be prepared.
After , since summer in spain is really hot, he will watch a movie, read, play and by 5 pm head to the swimming pool, also walking distance from our home, by 18-19h my husband or myself should join for a last dive with Rodrigo (swimming pool closes at 20h!). From that time onwards we will take care of him, so no help is needed for dinner, shower, etc..
During weekends no help is needed, and during August we expect to be on holidays so we wont be needing any help either.
Rodrigo is a very happy easygoing kid, very social and talkative, t is very important for us that you really do love children, he likes to play, interact, he is very creative and outgoing.
In our town, free spanish courses are offered , in the mornings for foreign people, our previous workawayer joined and was very happy. .
We do not need any help in cleaning or cooking, but if you stay with us of course you can cook yourself whenever you want and any help with daily tasks is welcome.
Other workawayers, german speakers are at San Lorenzo, since our kids attended a local German kindergarten and we all want to keep up with the language ;) so you will have other workawayers close by.
