    Description

    Ciao!

    We are a creative bi-lingual family living in the picturesque seaside town of Castiglione Della Pescaia on the south Tuscan coast. We have a restaurant in the medieval village and are extremely passionate about quality locally-sourced cuisine. We have three little daughters, a 3-year old and two 1-year old twins!

    We are looking for a proactive and creative couples who can assist us with childcare and light maintenance/ DIY at the restaurant during the off-season. This would be around 4/5 hours a day with 2 days off per week. We can be fairly flexible, most of the hours would likely be during the morning/lunchtime, with afternoon/evenings off.

    We are looking for someone with a good grasp of either the Italian or English language. It is important that you are confident and experienced with younger years and a have genuine passion for early childhood.

    You will have a self-contained apartment below our house, complete with a kitchenette, lounge and dining table. There will be free time to explore the beautiful Maremma region. We are a short walk from some of the most beautiful unspoiled beaches in Italy and the possibility for watersports and nature trails.

    If this sounds like the kind of experience you're looking for, we’d be delighted to connect!
