Description
Hello! We are a small family of 4: Cecilia, Lorenzo and little Nausicaa (3Y) and a little one that is called Elea (4 months). We are living in Emilia Romagna region at the moment for working reasons but we also have an ecovillage project in Basilicata Region where we go every time we can- summer for sure . We would like to find a very nice and respectful person, creative, non conventional, nature and children lover that would like to take care of our little Nausicaa when we are at work (mornings) and when Cecilia is taking care of the newborn, and sometimes in the afternoons, from November to June. We live in MONTOMBRARO DI ZOCCA, a little village in the mountains of the Appenine. I’m a teacher for teens with special needs.
We’ve travelled for many many years also like workawayers (form age 18-31) before deciding to come back to Italy and settle down…but still living in unconventional way!
Love to see what the world can offer us and what we can give back 🙏🏾🌼🌈 -

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are a unconventional Italian family: we are still very much connected with our traditions and attached to how simple life was in the old days…so you will be able to know and learn about traditional Italian recipes, lifestyle (we are not religious but we are open to any religion and believe as long as its respectful of others beliefs) , simple life connected to nature cycles and Mother Earth. In addition we like arts and culture from traditional Italian Culture from more classical arts to contemporary and international! we also live a very active life concerning the social and humanitarian field.
We like to live off grid (we don’t have a TV, we don’t like mainstream and average and popular culture and thinking!!).
Bologna is one of the most active and artistic towns in Italy, like the whole Emilia Romagna region. You will be able to profit from this!! You can go to bologna or the other cities by bus (is not too close but it’s durable!) -
