    Description

    Hello,
    I am OumKeltoum, I am 33 and am an IT engineer. With my husband, François (also 33 and mechanical engineer), we have 2 little kids : Salim, who is almost 2, and Ellana, who is 3 months old.
    We live in a small house in Meyreuil, which is a small town near Marseille and Aix-en-Provence.

    Help

    We are looking for someone who can help us with the kids.
    Salim is in daycare 5 days a week from 8:00 to 17:00. He wakes up around 6:00 and goes to bed around 20:30.
    As for Ellana, she stays at home with me for now.
    So we are mainly looking for help when the 2 kids are at home (playing with them, feeding and bathing them,...). And sometimes when I need a break with the baby girl.
