  Help

  We are looking for a NATIVE english speaker so that the communication with the kids is in English and they can improve their knowledge of the language.
  
  We would like help with the morning routine to go to school (breakfast, cleaning up,...).
  
  Also, we would like help to pick up our little son from nursery at 12:00 a.m. take him home, give him lunch and put him to sleep. At 3.00 p.m. we would like the person who comes to take him back to the nursery again.
  
  If we have some emergency (for instance the kids gets sick) we would also like the person to be available to be a full day with the kids if necessary.
  
  Every two weeks we would like to help with house cleaning, etc...

  We live in a flat in Cornella. We have two floors and the person will be living upstairs in her own room with a common area for his/her use with a sofa, and a toilet upstair too (we sometimes use this area with the kids when we are in the terrace). He/she will have access to two terraces, one of them with a little vegetable garden.
  
  Of course, he/she will be able to use kitchen downstairs and share meals with us.

  What else ...

  We live in Cornella. Our flat is near the underground, buses, trains and trams to go to Barcelona. The city has plenty of bicycle paths, parks and most of the necessary things you need daily.
  
  In Barcelona you have a wide offer of turistic sights, cultural offer, beach and mountain are really near so you can enjoy both easily on weekends. With public transport you can and be in the city center in 30-35 minutes.
  
  Cornellà is not very touristic but we have nice parks, some museums and the river side. You can walk or ride a bick all the way to the sea (we can lend you our bike if you want to try :)).
  
  We are nice and fun :) We love to travel and be outdoors and share our cultures with whoever is at home.
  We might have some guests with kids during your stay at home :) it will not involve any extra work.
