My name is Catherine and I live in a lovely house by the seaside in Italy in Liguria (1 hour east of Nice)
I need some help to take care of my 3 beautiful grandchildren who will come for holidays as well as some help in sharing light help around the house (washing dishes, putting some order, watering plants etc...)
I am looking for a young girl who speaks english or french between the 6th and the 24th of August
My grandchildren ( 11y,9y and 4y ) speak english and french
An experience with children would be great -
