I'm really pleased about this experience! Kristy is a very kind person and will guide you. Communication is definitely the good point : everything is clear and you can discuss with Kristy. She’s here for you. She’s a very active person who leads the family. Your tasks will be mostly driving, and helping around the house (laundry, cooking,
… read more vacuuming…). You have to be very flexible because the schedule can change quickly. And Kristy is also very flexible with you, if you have things to do. The house is very big, and you will have your own space in the basement. The surroundings are awesome, there are beautiful landscapes with the mountains and the snow. You will have an available car to discover it. I can only recommand this workaway!!!Solo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.

It was my first workaway experience and the best decision I could have made. I spent 5 weeks with this incredible family. Lucas is an excellent teacher and I had so much fun learning from him. Besides playing with the kids I worked on little projects like reorganizing a room and helping with the household.
Williamstown is such a cute small town

Kristy is such an excellent person, and I am so grateful that I could be a part of this amazing family.Solo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.

I am spending one month at Kristy's house, from the end of February to the end of March. This months are really cold, there's a lot of snow and for me, coming from the south of Italy, it's amazing to see the whole town covered in white.
The first week here has already gone, there's still more to go but I am already sad of leaving this wonderful

There's an aupair who helps with the kids, so I am basically helping with housekeeping (cooking, daily organization...) and sometimes, when needed, I take care of the younger kid, Lucas who is such a blast and fun to have around and to play with. They also have a dog, Coco, who is the sweetest dog ever!
The funniest thing is that Kristy always suggests new activities so the job is never boring. She is amazing, so patient, she understands my point of view, she knows that it's not so easy to get into a new house, with a different way of living, she gives you time to adapt yourself. What I also love about her is that, no matter how busy she is, she will always find a moment for you. I too appreciate that she always says thank you, even if there's no need to.
I totally recommend this place to people that want to get a full immersion into the american culture.Solo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.

I have been with her for 6 months and the first thing I have to say is that she is incredible. They have welcomed me from the first day as one more. I have been able to enjoy an unforgettable experience. I will always be grateful to her and her entire family. I'm going to miss my little monkeys. Thank you, I will always be there for what you need.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Marcello! He adapted very quickly to our home, and my boys instantly were attached to him. He stayed for several months and helped with all household chores, including outside. He was capable of taking care of all 4 children and loved to run around and play sports and tag, and anything they wanted to do.

Marcello asks a lot of questions which is helpful as he is eager to learn and strives to be the best that he can at everything he does. He is a very hard worker, an extremely nice person, and he always says "i just want to help", which he does. He is very respectful and flexible. My children absolutely adore him, and they are going to miss him. He's a very special person and we were very lucky to have him join our family. I would HIGHLY recommend Marcello to anyone who asked me without hesitation. He is just a wonderful person all around and very mature for his age.

Tatiana is very sweet and just a nice person. She is an EXCELLENT cook and willing to cook for the family (even working around allergies). You can tell she really enjoys cooking and has "wowed' our family multiple times with her dishes. She did grocery shopping and errands, and was willing to jump in and drive the kids around to activities as

She was willing to help with anything we needed and was a joy to have around our house as she is always smiling and seemingly happy. She is very respectful and has open communication which is helpful. I would definitely recommend Tatiana to other families.

The best experience in my life!
I stayed with the Kristy's Family during 6 month in 2018.

It was my first workaway experience and it was very positive. Kristy is adorable and made me feel comfortable as soon as I arrived. Her boys are very endearing and full of energy!

I stayed 3 weeks with this incredible family on summer and it was an amazing experience. Kids are so energetic and I had so much fun with them.
Since the first day I felt part of this family and it was amazing because it was my first workaway experience and my first time at the USA so it was really nice.
The work was playing with the kids or

The 4 kids are just so funny, I've laughed a lot with them and I've learned a lot too.
The village is quiet and cute, and there are many things to do nearby.
I definitely recomend this family.Solo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.

I spent a whole month with Kristy and her 4 lovely boys. It was definitely the best workaway experience I have ever had!
I was mostly working on new projects in their front and back yard. I also helped building a beautiful patio. All those projects were a lot of work but also so much fun! Kristy was and still is very thankful for all I did.
She

When I got there were including me into their family right away and made sure that I was comfortable at all times. She always smiles, laughs and loves to have conversation with other people and learn about their cultures. I still have an excellent relationship with her and I’m very thankful for that.
The 4 boys are just so much fun. They are playing together all the time, they love to discover some news things and they just bring so much joy into this wonderful family. I also took care of them some days and we just had such a nice time together.
I would definitely recommend this family to everyone! So many things to do and discover in this area. You will be treated like a part of their family.
I’ll will miss you so much guys! I’m looking forward seeing you again. It would be a pleasure for me to show you my beautiful country. Take care, love ya !Solo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.

I had a lot of fun this summer :)
I REALLY recommand you this family.
