Description
My name is Tania. I am a single mother of two kids, Mike is 12 years old and Katia is 6
I would like to find a person who would help me with my kids.
If you are a native English or French speaker it’s exactly what we need.
I live in Canet de Mar, 10 minutes from the beach and 1 hour from the centre of Barcelona. It’s a very peaceful and beautiful seaside town where you can do water sports and/or hiking.
I love yoga, dancing Bachata, Salsa and Kizomba as well as reading but don’t have much time to read these days ))

Help
I need a few hours of babysitting and occasionally some help around the house.
Mike is 12 years old, a very active and clever boy. He goes to school from 8am to 3 pm. He is quite independent and I will only want you to have some conversation with him or play football))
I also have a 6 year-old daughter, VIP who needs a lot of attention))
I would like the person who will join my family to be kind and have experience with kids and know something about respectful parenting. Non smokers please.
As I only need help 3 hours a day I can only offer accommodation, so you will have to buy your own food.

She took great care of my daughter, Katia and my son Michael. Their bond was so strong that Katia didn't want to let Sandrine go when her workaway experience ended. Katia learned a lot of French and even Michael picked up some words.… read more
I think he made Michael fall in love with the English language. He is a real professional. So if you want your
kids to improve their speaking, writing or reading skills in English don’t miss this opportunity and host BJ.

Both Tania ( the mother) and Mike ( his son) are very easy going and it has been easy to have an immediate familiar relationship with them.

She is extremely good with kids, amazing with emotionally unstable adults like me and very helpful with the house/routine organization.
Another thing, that’s unfortunately not always the case with other Workaway helpers is that she is very respectful of your privacy , I appreciate that a lot. So, she is there… read more
The apartment is 10 minutes to the beach and Barcelona is not too far either, so great for exploring.
Tania is a sweet person and is a wonderful mother. Sometimes I don't know how she manages to do it all!
All the tasks are easy and straight foward. She just needs… read more
Hope you enter the best University and do the course that will allow you to change the world.
What else can I say? One month passed very quickly, Phoebe became a friend who is always welcome in our home. I highly recommend her to all her future hosts.
Apart from childcare she even helped me around the house which wasn’t part of her duties. I… read more
