=============================================================================
We are looking for someone to part time babysit a smiley and extremely happy 8 month old baby Rafi during the month of May.
We need someone who will play with him, feed him and change him, 4 hours per day. We are thinking 3 hours in the morning and 1 hour in the afternoon. We will offer accommodation on our land (4 min walk away) and meals will be offered with the community.
We are following Montessori style learning and we are trying to develop Rafi's independence and focus by giving him the chance to lead activities and figure things out without being overpowering.
=============================================================================
Events, festivals, courses, bio-building, creative construction, gardening and community by volcano Etna, Italy
Since 2019 a small group of friends has been based in an isolated area, in the Alcantara Valley, by the suggestive medieval village of Castiglione di Sicilia, under the Etna volcano.
We are rebuilding an ancient villa from the 1800s, organizing cultural events, and being a hub for creativity and culture in the valley of the Alcantara River. Immersed in nature we work hard to further our goal of creating an artistic community, self-sufficient, eco-sustainable and creative. We work a lot with reclaimed materials and we organize courses to spread knowledge on herbs, natural food and agriculture, building in eco-sustainable ways, music, and much more.
We are looking for long-term volunteers with skills in all kind of buildings and plumbers, hard workers or just people full of energy and ready to learn and get responsibilities in a multifaceted cultural, agricultural and construction project. You will be working in a stimulating environment with plenty of young, international volunteers.
We normally know volunteers for about 10 days and after we confirm the stay for a minimum one month.
A common dormitory is available but tent stay is also possible, we have room for campers and vans.
We take care of about 3 hectares: a vegetable garden, aromatic plants and many varieties of trees to pick, to plant and take care. We do preserves, dry food, natural cosmetics, hospitality, events sometimes beekeeping, screen printing and much more. It's a non-profit community.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR LONG-TERM VOLUNTEERS ONLY
(depending on which project we have to do, read above).
Minimum 2 weeks - up to 1/2 months

Our place is in the middle of the countryside between Francavilla di Sicilia and Castiglione di Sicilia. 2km from Francavilla. Around here there is so much to see, visit and enjoy. 300metres from Alcantara river! Not very easy solutions with public transports but connected with Catania, Fontanarossa Airport.
