  Help

  We are looking for a cheerful, friendly and responsible person to support with
  - bringing to and picking up from school,
  - looking after our dog
  - playing, singing, dancing, reading,
  - going outdoors and being physically active (hiking, riding a bike, playing active outdoor games with a child and a dog...)
  - having fun
  - being creative
  - preparing small, healthy meals
  - supporting the child in staying tidy
  - good German skills are absolutely necessary
  
  You should feel comfortable spending time with an extrovert, very chatty child who is full of ideas and games. You will feel comfortable with this if you are a physiclly active, creative and playful soul, who is also able to state clear, friendly boundaries when necessary. Previous experience with children (regular daycare/babysitting, smaller brothers, workaway, or pedagogical training…) and dogs is definitely a plus.
  
  Usually we will be needing help from Mo.-Fr. from 6:45am to 8am and from 4pm to 7:45pm (the afternoons may vary slightly). 1-2x a month we would be needing support on a weekend day (instead of on a weekday). Feel free to inquire, if you have any questions.
  
  You are welcome to live along with our family and we will support you in feeling at home and happy in Vienna - discovering the cultural offers and leisure activities this wonderful city provides.

  Accommodation

  Your accomodation would be a very nice, fully furnished bedroom.
  
  It is a family household, whenever possible we have meals together.
  Our household is vegetarian, non-smoking and alcohol-free.
  
  We live in a large, quiet apartment with a very good infrastructure (public transport, cultural and sports and leisure activities nearby including swimming), there is a garden and a terrace and a roof terrace, as well as very friendly neighbours. Vienna is a peaceful, serene and very safe city with pure, good-tasting drinking water. Even living in the city, our house offers a warm and welcoming community.

  What else ...

  Please, only contact us, if you live a healthy, sustainable, non-smoking, alcohol-free and vegetarian or vegan lifestyle and have a hands-on, down-to-earth attitude towards life. We cannot host short term as we are interested in long term stay (1 month minimum) only. Thank you!
