    Description

    Hi! My name is Sam. I´m American living in Barcelona (Badalona, 20 minute metro ride to the center of Barcelona). We have two kids (ages 3 and 5) who are in school full time. I work as an English teacher and my husband works from home. We love the beach (which is a 10 minute walk) and exploring Barcelona. We would like to expose our two children ARABIC. We are not looking for an au pair.

    We are looking for someone who could spend a bit of time with them after school speaking them in one of these languages in exchange for room and board. They are in school all day but it would be nice if we could have someone pick them up, take them to the park, speak with them in Arabic and maybe some days do some light cleaning/laundry. It would be about 3 hours a day so it would give you plenty of time to do your own thing. We would also ask for two weekend days a month of babysitting (We would put them to bed, you would just need to stay home twice a month on a Friday or Saturday)

    We want our two boys to learn ARABIC. We are looking for someone who can spend about 3 hours a day with them (or maybe 2 and 1 hour helping with laundry/light cleaning) in exchange for a room in our apartment and board. Our apartment is small, but the workawayer will have their own room. We are looking for someone independent, reliable, good with kids etc,
