Descripción
We are a family of four from Italy and the UK, we have two children ages 4 and 6. We live in the countryside, in Formello, just outside Rome.
Depending on the time of year we are looking for different kinds of help around our house.
We are looking for one or two people to arrive around the 1st May for a 2 week stay.
As of 22nd April 2024: We are currently looking for someone with some general maintenance knowledge as we need to sand down and re-varnish all of the shutters on our house. Also help with gardening and general light outdoor maintenance.
We are also looking for someone who knows how to cook healthy vegetarian food and help with looking after the children.
We are looking for someone who is independent and uses their initiative as we are very busy working most of the day. I work in a school in Rome which the children also attend so what has been working a couple of days a week is taking the person we have staying from Workaway into work with me in the morning so you can spend time in Rome.
We also would like the person to be available to stay at home with our children if they are not feeling well enough to go to school so the ability to be flexible is really important.
(Not looking for at the moment but will be again soon: I have just started a you tube channel and as I am also working full time, I am looking for someone who is experienced with video editing to share the editing work, it is best if you have your own laptop and video editing software to bring with you. Please get in touch and we can chat more about it.)

We live in Formello, which is a small town in the countryside just outside of Rome. From our house you can walk into Formello which is a little town with some bars and cafes, shops a swimming pool and a little historic centre. There are also some lovely countryside walks not too far from our house. We are also not far from the sea and lakes although you would need a car to get to the sea and the train will take you to the lake. We are close to Rome and all it has to offer but please be aware that the public transport in our area isn’t great: you can easily and cheaply get a bus to the train station which will take you into Rome, but they only run at certain times of day. By bus and train it will take you at about an hour to get into Rome.
We are a bilingual family and so would be happy to share our two languages with you! We are mainly vegetarian and like eating together and cooking healthily.

Main detail of what we need at the moment is in the description above. but I’ll leave this for reference of the kind of people we are looking for.
On having previous lovely people from Workaway stay with us, we have learnt that we love to have people to help with the cooking, food prep and shopping. This wasn’t something we had even thought about when joining Workaway but it has been an excellent outcome.
We would love to find someone who loves cooking and preparing healthy vegetarian and/ or vegan meals. What has worked for us in the past was having someone prepare lunch and dinner for the family and other workawayers we had at the time and also, if possible, do the food shopping.
We also are looking for someone to take care of our children. This would involve playing with them, reading with them, doing projects, going in the swimming pool with them, maybe taking them out to the park or to play in the mud and woodland that we have near our house. We are looking for people who don’t mind getting dirty and love being outdoors as I would like the children to be outdoors as much as possible. This summer this would also probably include making lunch for yourselves and them. We are looking for one or two people to do this.
We would like to also find someone to help with general maintenance tasks around the house. We have some jobs we need to do soon, such as re-varnishing the shutters of our house, painting the inside walls of the house, as well as our windows and oiling our inside doors. Also creative people to redecorate some furniture. We are also looking for people with gardening skills. We are also always looking for people with carpentry skills.

Their house is beautiful, the garden even more and everything was perfect. I would highly recommend this experience if you want to spend time with a nice family.

I was so happy to stay with them. My work only involved child care, and I loved spending the day with Joanie Maria and Noah, we had tons of fun! The whole family has a place in my heart and I'm hoping to return:)
