  Description

  My name is Victoria, I am 44 years old, Uruguayan, and an entrepreneur. I live with my 8-year-old son Giulio, who is a smart, empathetic, sensitive, and kind child. He attends a local public school in Catania.
  
  We enjoy discovering new places, traveling, going to the mountains, and watching movies together in the evening. We are an active and sporty family.
  
  We have two cats, Sleepy and Slapy.
  
  We live in the historic center of Catania, on Via Umberto I, one of the main and most beautiful streets in the city, very well connected by metro and bus lines.
  
  We are looking for a very responsible, reliable, and mature person who speaks English or Spanish, so Giulio can practice the language naturally on a daily basis.
  The person will take care of Giulio, organize creative and educational activities, help him with homework, and dedicate full attention to him during working hours.
  
  Starting from March, I will be working both in my own business and at the airport. This means my working hours can be early in the morning (from 5:00 am) or late in the evening (sometimes until 10:30 pm), depending on my shifts.
  For this reason, I need someone who can be present and reliable during the times I am not at home: waking Giulio up, preparing him and taking him to school, picking him up from school or summer activities near home, preparing his meals, and staying with him when needed.
  
  Working hours may vary according to my shifts, but the weekly workload will remain within agreed limits. There will be two days off per week, sometimes even three.
  
  This position is not a holiday experience. I am looking for someone who truly wants to be part of a family, collaborate, learn, and take responsibility. Free time is free time, and you are of course free to organize it as you wish, but during working hours full availability and commitment are required.
  
  When spending time with Giulio, attention must be fully on him — not on the phone or other distractions. The role also includes maintaining order and cleanliness in shared spaces and Giulio’s areas. I am looking for a person who is organized, precise, clean, and respectful of the home.
  
  We offer a welcoming and respectful family environment, with clear rules, mutual trust, and respect for privacy.

  Mi chiamo Victoria, ho 44 anni, sono uruguaiana e imprenditrice. Vivo con mio figlio Giulio, di 8 anni, un bambino sveglio, empatico, sensibile e molto dolce. Frequenta una scuola pubblica a Catania.
  
  Ci piace scoprire posti nuovi, viaggiare, andare in montagna e guardare film insieme la sera. Siamo una famiglia attiva e sportiva.
  
  Abbiamo due gatti, Sleepy e Slapy.
  
  Viviamo nel centro storico di Catania, in via Umberto I, una delle vie principali e più belle della città, ben collegata con metropolitana e autobus.
  
  Cerco una persona molto responsabile, affidabile e matura, che parli inglese o spagnolo, così che Giulio possa praticare la lingua quotidianamente.
  La persona dovrà occuparsi di lui, organizzare attività creative ed educative, aiutarlo con i compiti e dedicargli attenzione completa durante le ore di lavoro.
  
  A partire da marzo lavorerò sia nella mia attività sia in aeroporto. Questo comporta orari di lavoro particolari, a volte molto presto (dalle 5:00 del mattino) e altre volte fino a tarda sera (anche alle 22:30), in base ai turni.
  Per questo motivo ho bisogno di una persona che possa essere presente e affidabile negli orari in cui io non ci sono: svegliare Giulio, prepararlo e accompagnarlo a scuola, andarlo a prendere a scuola o alle attività estive vicino casa, preparargli da mangiare e stare con lui quando necessario.
  
  Gli orari varieranno in base ai miei turni, ma saranno concordati. Sono previsti due giorni liberi a settimana, talvolta anche tre.
  
  Tengo a specificare con chiarezza che non si tratta di una vacanza. Cerco una persona che venga con la voglia di collaborare, imparare e prendersi responsabilità all’interno di una famiglia. Nel tempo libero ognuno è libero di organizzarsi come preferisce, ma durante le ore di lavoro è richiesta presenza, serietà e impegno.
  
  Il tempo trascorso con mio figlio deve essere dedicato esclusivamente a lui, non al telefono o ad altre distrazioni. È inoltre richiesto mantenere ordine e pulizia, soprattutto negli spazi comuni e nelle aree di Giulio. Cerco una persona organizzata, precisa, pulita e ordinata.
  
  Offriamo un ambiente familiare accogliente e rispettoso, con regole chiare, fiducia reciproca e rispetto della privacy.

  Sleepy and Slappy

  Sleepy and Slappy are very sociable and good-natured cats. They are friendly, calm, and easy to handle in everyday situations. They enjoy human company, even if they don’t particularly like being held in someone’s arms for long periods. Overall, they are easy to manage and adapt well to their environment.
  
  Sleepy and Slappy are female cats. They are especially sweet and sociable, with gentle personalities. Like the others, they prefer interaction on their own terms and are not big fans of being carried, but they are cooperative, balanced, and easy to care for.
