  Description

  Hello Workawayer’s,
  We’re a family of four from Mallorca. Mikel and I (Maria) met here in Mallorca when we were 18 years old and got married when we were 26.
  Now we are both 35 and we have two wonderful daughters (a 2 years old and 6 year old).
  
  Our hope is to improve our english together. My dream is to teach english to our children. So, we’re looking for someone who enjoys being with children, looking after, and likes speaking english with them. Ideally someone who can help with adult tasks as well.
  
  They go to school, so it would be a some hours in the afternoon from 7pm-10 pm aprox. during bath, dinner and bed time.
  
  We also need some help with the house! For that reason it’s necessary to be a clean and organized person! The home task can be make beds, dishwasher, laundry, vacuum, clean…easy help!
  In total it'd between 3-5 hours to help/day!
  
  I love cooking mediterranean and healthy food and making family plans at the weekends. During the week we are busy but we love to make different family plans and visit new places when we can! Our guest can join us if you want to know the Mallorca culture.
  
  We live in Manacor (10km to the coast) in a big flat. Our guest will have a private room with a small terrasse.
  
  Looking forward to meet you 😉
