  Description

  We are a young family of 3, mum (Jackie 30) dad (Vasilis or Will 30), and our son George Marcus (2.5). We run a scuba diving centre in the summer, and have other online jobs in the winter. Because of this we are very busy and need some help babysitting or adorable son. Looking for someone to look after him each day in our own house. We can provide accommodation only a 2 minute walk away in a private accommodation. Of course food is provided while you are with Marcus and you will also be provided some petty cash to take him out to the beach occasionally or on park trips. We are a bi lingual household with English and Greek native speakers, language and cultural exchange is a pro, and also any diving you want to do will be available in the summer.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  As stated we are a bilingual family with native English and native Greek language if you wanted to learn either we could help. We would also love for you to come diving with us in the summer if that is something your interested in! Days off you could explore the beautiful island we live on, with so much historical value, long hikes and gorgeous beaches it is hard not to fall in love with Symi. People usually love to rent a scooter and explore the mountainous views from above. Also I have to mention sunsets are spectacular.

  Autres infos...

  Transport around the island is a little tricky, there are lots of hills and steps however there is a bus that runs hourly in the summer and a few times a day in the winter and only cost 2 euros, renting a scooter is a popular fun adventure, and we have a van for the scuba divers, so you can always hop in with us for a lift if the timing suits. The play park is only 5 minute walk away from our house, and we like Marcus to go on a trip there to burn some energy each day if possible, if not the park then the beach is a great one. And as I stated before if you have never tried scuba diving, come try it with us, you will fall in love, and if you are already certified you will be amazed by some of our beautiful sites, wrecks, caves and beautiful amphora dives, you will be welcome to join us on trips when your free.

  Possibilité d’accueillir les digital nomads

  It would be good if you could give 100% attention to my son when watching him, but he does nap most days and has a set wake up/bed time. If you have online work to do we can try to accommodate your schedule. My house has great WiFi connection and the accommodation provided also has a great WiFi connection.

  Possibilité d'accueillir les animaux

  It would definitely depend on what type of animal but it will definitely be considered and we love animals.
