Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We started our experience as hosts in the summer of 2023, and we are having a lot of fun hosting people from different countries and cultures :)
In our family you will feel at home. We will help you find out which are the most beautiful places in our country and we will let you taste the excellent Italian cuisine cooked by grandmothers Anna & Giuseppina.

Help
We are looking for a person who devotes 4 hours a day to our children. Our children go to school, so we are looking for someone who can help us in the morning to prepare them for school while we also get ready for work (about one hour around 7.30/8.30) and a few hours in the afternoon from around 3.30 to 7.30. During these hours you will be able to spend some time with Raffaele and play with him by speaking to him in English (we are trying to teach him a new language) or spend a while with Giuseppe. I (Antonella) don't work in the afternoon, so I will always be with you and we can all go to the park together, for a walk, to the sea... Two days a week are free, so the person who chooses to come to our family will have many free hours to visit the beautiful places that can be reached in a short time such as Sorrento, Capri, Pompeii, Naples, Positano, Amalfi.

Naomi stayed with us during the summer holidays, a time when the children are out of school, so right from the start, she spent many hours alone with Raffaele while I was at work. She always managed to entertain him by playing, drawing, going for walks, and so much more, without ever calling me for help. Raffaele connected with her right away and… read more
