    We are looking for an English speaking nanny (non smoker) . We like the idea that our children spend part of their time with a FUNNY big sister and, in the meantime, they have the good and unique opportunity to speak and improve their English.
    You could be perfect for us if you really like PLAYING a lot with kids(...not only watching them... it is not enough for us) if you really like spending time with them teaching new things and speaking with them, if you are energic, kind, smiling and in general an happy person curious about different people and experiences. In addition, as we have a dog too, you should be an animal lover... if all these expects rapresent you then please contact us !

    We need help starting from mid june till mid sept, Mon to Fri, mostly during the mornings
    You should play a lot with our 3 kids and have lunch with them.
    We have a spacious house and a big outdoor area where you can play, including a pool.
    For this reason you should be able to swim and play with the kids in the water .
    We require to play a lot and have fun...all in English and without the use of the mobile phone or tv. Your time spent with them hast to be real quality time. Part of the morning should be dedicated to school-works at least 1 or 2 times a week. Both Emilia and Olivia are very indipendent and responsable, they organize their time and studies very well, so you should just assist Mattia.
    We require you to feel as part of the family and not as a guest so please give a hand during the lunch/dinner preparations, set the table etc.. when you enjoy us during meals.

    Thank you in advance for all your help!
