Description
Hi travelers and explorers!
Welcome to our family!
My name is Wilma, I am 43 years old and I live in Montpellier (FR) with my partner Davide, 44 years old, and our 3 kids, Gaia, Agata and Elio. They are 10, 8 and 5 years old. We are Italian, we spent the last 20 years leaving abroad in Europe (Barcelona, Paris, Marseille and now Montpellier).
We are searching for English or Spanish mother tongue to teach English or Spanish to our kids.
We are searching as well for French mother tongue to help our kids improve their French.
We both speak fluently Italian, English, French and Spanish! Our kids are trilingual French / Italian / Spanish but they are always very happy to ear new languages!
I'm working at home at my project. I make soft toys from kid's drawings and custom portrait dolls. Davide is a physicist researcher working at the University.
Our kids go to school 4 days per week. We will be happy to have someone able to teach them English or Spanish or improve their French for school. We welcome all skill sets, the most important qualities being enthusiasm and open minds.
We live on an independent house in the city of Montpellier. We have a garden to stay and to eat since weather here is always sunny! The bus stop for the city center is 2 minutes walking.
The person will have his own, big independent room (25 sqm), with wi-fi connection to work.

Help
*️️️️️️️️ Teaching English or Spanish to the kids.
*️️️️️️️️ Babysitting / child care: receiving/hosting people from outside the family has a good impact on the kids and it stimulates them to be more open-minded. I don't think that the social skills can grow only in kindergarten encountering solely other kids of their age. On the contrary, I believe that by relating to people of all ages they benefit vastly more. As we attempt to be as international as possible, so would our children.

Hello! We are searching for English or Spanish mother tongue to teach English or Spanish to our kids. We are searching as well for French mother tongue to help our kids improve their French.
Accommodation
We have an independent big room with a direct access to the garden.
What else ...
To reach our house is very easy using public transport (from the train station).
The bus stop is 2 minutes walking. We are very close to the countryside as well so you can make excursions during the day as well.
We are very flexible, in the end it is all about communication and we always try to stay flexible.
We need a help mainly in the afternoon, no more than 3/4 hours a day and the rest of the time you are free to discover the city and the nature all around.
During the free days, you can do whatever you want, get out and go to the beach, trekking and climbing at the natural park, travelling and visiting cities in Camargue.

They are amazing hosts and made me feel totally comfortable and at home. The kids have loads of energy and were always willing to learn (and play, of course!). On top of that, Montpellier is a very pretty town/city :) I would totally recommend this stay.
They loved to learn with him and his help has been precious to improve their English!
