Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I am British/ South African and would love to share my culture with you. Matt is English, so it is a great exchange of foods and culture. We would prefer to have someone with English as their Primary Language, but would love to host someone that speaks multiple and also shares their culture with us!

Help
We are a close-knit family of three whose careers require us to spend some time away from home. Because of this, we are currently looking for our next au pair to join our family and look after our daughter Nina (11 Years/ almost 12). It is a live-in job.
. Nina is a very active child and does extracurricular activities such as gymnastics, dance and Scouts. Because of this you will need a valid drivers licence, and you will have access to the car to use as well.
The village we live in is about a 30 minute train to London, and is equally not far from other cities such as Oxford and Reading. The community we live in is safe and friendly, and has a variety of lovely walks and ponds. Only ladies.

What else ...
On time off, you can visit smaller cities and places. In the village, there are stunning walks, a cafe, grocery store/ corner shop and a very nice Pub. The large shops are only a 10 minute drive also! We are about a 12 minute drive from the train station, which we can give you a lift to when needed. On weekends you can do some travelling or stay home!
