  Description

  Hi,
  We are a big family with grown up children, so mostly we only need help at home with 10 yo Clara. We live in a small town 15 mins away by car from the ocean.
  
  Looking for someone who can teach our daughter some skills like music/language/dance/science etc. Spanish/Italian native speakers very welcome.
  We offer some pocket money.
  The person who can show us how to use sewing machine is very welcome at the minute ;-)
  
  
  Clara is very well mannered, polite child, very talkative and asking questions all the time. She loves drawing, reading books, dancing, and learning spanish. She is at school from 9am -3 pm, which will be your mostly your free time but we can arrange some work in the mornings/ free afternoons ( flexible)
  Clara has started to play piano/keyboard/ukulele so any musician very welcome too.
  
  Mum Beata runs cleaning company; dad is a handyman. Grown up children staying at home sometimes, coming and going... they are very open minded for people from other countries .
  
  Sorry, we are not vegetarians or vegans! We eat healthy food, mostly cooked from scratch. I love baking but no free time so if you play/teach Clara I can do more cooking/baking.
  
  Because of our daughter age , we expect the house to be appropriately quiet after 10 pm but we are staying late at the weekends, Summer also very busy in the evenings, we all enjoy to have family evening fun including our little one or you can go with them to the local pub or meet new friends. We are open to different arrangements.
  
  Autumn TIME.
  I am looking for a person who can help me more with teaching spanish /italian.

  Help

  I appreciate if you teach us your native language. I would also appreciate a bit of help in the housework, like light cleaning, ironing. We aren't a hostel so cleaning after all meals don't qualify as a work.
  You can choose to do any type of house help , or we can arrange individually.. I prefer early bird person as we wake up around 7.0am winter time and 6. 30 in the summer
  If you wish , you can help prepare or cook dinner yourself for the family.
  
  
  
  In exchange we offer accommodation (own room with shared bathroom) with food , in a town 10km from a beach , with a friendly,open family . In exchange we can also show you a bit around the area that we live in , and teach you English/ and help you improve your English.
  
  
  The babysitting help is flexible, the time will be arranged individually.
  Because of our daughter, we expect the house to be appropriately quiet in the evenings and surely at night.
  Your free time hours will depend on the babysitting times , which will also be arranged in person. You will however have alweys the whole Sunday off, and individual days as arranged.
  
  Any hidden/usufull skills please let me know.
  Anything else we can arrange in person or over email, depending on the situation.
  No smoking, drugs, alcohol or phone addiction ;-)
  I am looking forward to hear from you .
