  Description

  Hello! we are a young family with two kids and a cat. My husband and I can speak English, we are both engineers and work from home most of the time. Our home is located 30 minutes from Barcelona by train, in a small town between the beach and the mountains. You will have a private room, kitchen, and bathroom and a shared gym, and a garden with a small orchard. We are looking for native English speakers, easy-going, mature, independent, and responsible helpers that love being with kids. Preferred length of stay: 1 to 3 months.

  Aide

  We are a working couple with two daughters who need collaboration to have personal time and quality time with the girls. We can welcome guests of two profiles (or both at the same time):
  1. To help with DIY tasks and gardening in our house.
  2. To help with the care of the girls in English. We are looking for a native English speaker to help with children aged 6 and 1,5. They are in school until 16:30 but since we work full-time, we need support mostly between 16:30-18:30h and during dinner preparation:
  -16:30-18:30: play with children in English
  -19:30-20:30: look after children/cooking
  -One night of babysitting/monitoring per week (21:00-23:00)
  -Weekends free
  We will need proven experience in taking care of small kids (1.5 years old).
  
  Available from mid-June to August.
