    Description

    Hi, I'm Simona, I'm 51 years old. My husband, Emanuele, and I have two beautiful children, ages 11 and 8. They're lively but respectful, and they love playing in the garden and taking long dips in the pool.
    Our house is perfect for all of this, having a very large garden and a beautiful pool.
    My husband and I work, but two days a week we work from home.
    We need someone who speaks English and can spend time with the children, usually in the mornings, playing with them, talking to them, and tidying up their rooms.
    It might be necessary to accompany the children on errands or take them to sports. Having a car would be ideal, but it's not essential.
    We have a room and bathroom to dedicate to the person who wants to stay with us.
    At the entrance to our complex, there's a bus stop that leads to a tram that connects directly to the center.

    We would like to have someone with us for the period from July 3, 2026 to July 24, 2026
