Hello we are a family that offer room and board in exchange for the time you're home or sharing with us, teaching English to my daughters. We don't mind how long you can stay - 15 days, 1 month or 6 months ... you can even come to study, work or on vacation, all we ask is living together, for example make your bed, work at home everyday things, education, respect ... as if it were your home. We do not want you to work for us, just to teach the English to my kids and to share your time with us.

Staying with Susana, Juan and the girls was a great way to gain experience with children whilst living in a family environment. From day one, I was made to feel very comfortable and welcomed by the family; they were more than happy to answer any questions that I had. When I arrived, Susana was very helpful with showing me around the town of… read more Valdemoro, suggesting things for me to do in my free time, such as the gym, which is roughly 10m minutes away walking. Although Valdemoro is a town, it has all the basic amenities such as supermarkets, library, cafes and parks...and public transport! In my free time I enjoyed travelling into Madrid centre, which can be reached by a train that takes roughly 30 minutes.

This family are very active and have a busy timetable, which consists of many after-school acitivities and days out on weekends. Therefore I adapted the children´s english classes around this...sometimes meaning I would have them after school and their activities, meaning they were tired! Although the children could be challenging at times, particularly when they were overtired, I throroughly enjoyed bonding with them (which included lots of cuddles and affection). The children came home from school to have lunch, which wasn´t always easy as they often refused to eat; in order to help improve this aspect I devised a star chart which dictated that if they behaved at dinner time, and ate all of their food, they would gain a gold star which would lead to a reward. Susana was very supportive of this method, especially when it was found very effective with improving the girl´s behaviour.

An issue I found whilst living with the family was that it was very unclear when I was meant to be spending time with the family, and when was my free time to be in my room or go out. As the girls have lots of activities during the week, Susana would often prefer for me to be home on weekends so that the girls and I could have more time together speaking english. They would also ask me to attend family days out regularly, which was great as I felt a welcomed part of the family, but was sometimes difficult if I had already made plans or wanted to stay home to have some quiet time haha. I felt that at times, there was a slight mis-communication concerning what I had come to do with them and what they expected from me. Therefore, I felt that it was more of an au pair role, rather than just spending a few hours speaking with them in english. But if you are looking for an experience where you spend a majority of your time with the family, then this will really suit you!

After 6 weeks I decided to leave, as I felt that I was spending more time than I anticipated working and consequently the other things I had hoped to do took a back seat. Overall, they are a very loving family and the little girls have such good hearts, but unfortunately it didn,t work out. Thank you for everything, and good luck for the future.
