We would love to host with us an au pair STARTING on SEPTEMBER 2025 for the whole school year (to May-July 2026)
who love playing and spending time with our 8 years old twins. We will need your help during the weekdays, mainly in the mornings before they go to school and in the afternoons when they are back.
¡Hola! We are a spanish welcoming family living in the northwest area of Madrid (Spain), we love nature, traveling and enjoy time with family and friends.
We have hosted 6 au pairs for the last 5 years and we have loved the experience, we still have contact with them and one of them visited us again.
We are a very open-minded family we have been working/studying in different countries (US, UK, Italy and Australia), we consider that rise our children in an international environment is the best opportunity we can offer to them.
We live in a town house with a private garden and pool. You will have a private room with a king size bed and your own bathroom inside, tv, etc (see the pictures). You will have you independence and for sure we will be very happy in helping you in whatever you need.
We live in a town called El Escorial in Madrid (next to San Lorenzo de El Escorial) close to the mountains, it is a very historical and touristic place, full of options. Our town is 50 minutes far from Madrid by bus or train, it is very well communicated. The train and bus stations are 10 minutes walking distance from our home.
We love spending time outdoors specially in summer with family and friends, additionally we love sports, specially cycling ad the kids love football, tenis and judo.
Additionally we love traveling, exploring new places and eat international food.
We are looking for an native English speaker, who love spending time with the kids, to play and take care of our 8 year old twins. We will need your help in the mornings from 7:45 AM to 8:40 AM before they go to school and to play with them in the afternoons when they are back from school around 17:15 PM during the school year, 3 days per week the kids will arrive home around 18:30 PM after football class.
Since the main goal of the au pair will be to play a lot with kids an to talk to them a lot, we are looking for an au pair who love and enjoy spending time with kids. From Monday to Friday, the au pair wakes up the kids around 7:45 AM, helps the kids to get dressed up and prepare the backpack, she will give them breakfast, at 8:40 AM and their aunt will pick the kids up to school. The kids get home at 17:15 PM the au pair will play with them at home and will be with them while doing homework.
