Program Details

We agree on a weekly schedule together making sure we find a balance between your personal time and household contributions. In general, the first part of the day is spent combining personal time with some household contributions. Some days you can enjoy activities you enjoy, such as walking, reading, or exercising while other days, you would take on some daily chores such as tidying the house, some gardening or enjoying a walk with Maya, our dog.
After 4 PM, when Kaue returns home, your focus would shift to spending quality time with him engaging in activities that match your interests, fostering a supportive and nurturing environment for Kaue. This program would allow you to contribute meaningfully to our household while enjoying the rural surroundings.

Activities & Shift

An important focus of this position is the ability to cook and being comfortable and creative in engaging with our child, Kaue. While not a requirement, the ability to drive is beneficial, offering you the chance to explore more of the surrounding area. Experience in video editing or marketing support to assist Juliana in her work would be a valuable plus.
