  Descripción

  We are a family made up of Cristina (me), Rafa (my husband), Olivia (10 years old), Nicolás (6 years old). We live in a small town called Patones, a quaint little town at the bottom of the mountains northern of the Madrid province, 5 km from the town of Torrelaguna and 50km from Madrid.
  Rafa is a proposal engineer, I work as an administrative employee, and Olivia and Nicolás go to school. On some weekends we try to spend time in nature, taking small routes suitable for families and taking the opportunity to pick mushrooms… Whenever time and circumstances allow it.
  
  IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
  We are looking for an au pair (girl) who is able to stay for a prolonged period of time with our family, from the beginning of September 2025 to the end of June 2026, covering the whole school period of our children. With us, you will be an integral part of the family and experience the authentic Spanish lifestyle!
