Find your perfect host
Details
Description
I am seeking a female individual who is exceptionally clean, organized, and child-friendly, willing to commit to staying for more than one month.
As an artist and single mother of a four-year-old daughter named Aurora, I am in need of a reliable and dynamic individual who is skilled in cleaning and cooking. Attention to detail is crucial, as is the ability to understand and adapt to our way of life.
Aurora is a bright, affectionate, and sociable child who would greatly benefit from having a playmate. Flexibility is essential, as the person may need to care for Aurora if she falls ill while I am at work.
The selected individual will have their own bedroom and share a bathroom in our home. I am seeking someone who can commit to a longer-term arrangement to minimize disruptions.
If you believe you fit this description and are interested in joining our household, please reach out to discuss further details

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
The guest will feel like an integral part of our family. In addition to providing food and accommodation, we offer an enriching international environment where art, cuisine, and healthy living are integral to our lifestyle.
As a skilled cook and avid traveler, I bring a wealth of culinary experiences and global perspectives to our home. Being Italian, there's always a delicious array of food and recipes to discover and enjoy. We are fluent in both Italian and English, and I'm more than happy to share and teach these languages.
Moreover, our guest will have ample free time to explore the vibrant city of Zurich and the picturesque landscapes of Switzerland. There's so much to see and do in this beautiful region, and we encourage our guest to take full advantage of these opportunities.

Help
I am in search of a multitasking individual who can handle cooking, cleaning, tidying up, and play with my daughter. The ideal person should be quick to learn and adaptable to our routine.
We reside in a cozy and comfortable two-bedroom apartment located on the top floor of a three-story building in a central and quiet area. While the space is easy to maintain, I am seeking someone efficient and swift in their tasks.
The person will be required to assist either in the mornings or evenings or eventually few hors in the morning and few in the evening.
Languages spoken
English: Fluent
Italian: Fluent
Accommodation
The person will have her own bedroom, while we'll share the kitchen and bathroom. Therefore, I'm looking for someone who is extremely clean, tidy, and respectful of shared spaces.
Our apartment is cozy and located on the second/third floor, with no elevator. There are shops and public transportation nearby for convenience.
As mentioned earlier, in exchange for assistance, I will provide food and accommodation. I'll take care of the grocery shopping, ensuring there's plenty of vegetarian options available. For evening meals, I kindly ask the person to take charge of cooking. As for breakfast and lunch, they are welcome to choose whatever they prefer and help themselves.
If this sounds like a good fit for you, I'd love to chat more about it! Feel free to reach out with any questions or to discuss further details.
What else ...
Zurich as an International city offers a lot, you need to have some money to travel around, like pubblic transports, etc...there is the possibility to do beautiful walks in the surround area...plenty of nature. I may can lend you a bicycle to go around...

Adliswil is situated in the valley of the Sihl, between the chain of the Albis hills in the west and the Zimmerberg hills in the east. 18'681 inhabitants (as per 31.12.2018) make our city to one of the largest municipalities in the canton of Zurich. Because of its size and political structure, Adliswil can call itself a city. Approximately 35% of the inhabitants of Adliswil are foreigners.
ADLISWIL: The town of Adliswil is located in the Zimmerberg-Sihltal region and borders directly on the city of Zurich to the north.
