Description
We are a friendly Spanish family with two daughters aged 7 and 10 living in a nice 2 floor apartment in Madrid, the capital of Spain. We are looking for an outgoing and sweet native English speaker girl to play with our daughters in English Monday to Friday from 5:15 pm to around 9 pm. There will usually be an adult in the apartment. House work is required only once a week. You won't have to cook, do the laundry or the dishes as we will take care of that. We offer food, and accomodation with your own nice and cosy bedroom with a view of the tallest buildings of the city . There is also a swimming pool in the building so that you can take advantage of the sunny weather in summer. The apartment has a very good location, only 10 min by train to the city center. Train station is 10 min walking from the apartment and there is a bus stop right in front of the building (night bus included). You will be off in the mornings and the weekends as well so that you can fully enjoy your experience in Madrid. We can provide information about language schools, weekend plans, etc. You can also contact our previous workawayers for some advice of how to take advantage of one of the best cities to make new friends and have a wonderful experience. We would like you to feel like a member of our family.
