I recommend this volunteering 100%! Ioanna is an amazing host, super friendly and communicative... The children are very nice, quiet and also have their things because they are still children, but it is a super easy job, which requires patience and responsibility! If you want to live a comfortable and quiet experience in Brussels, this is your place :)

I spent two weeks in Ioanna's house, I liked the experience. Localization it's nice and it's possible to go to places walking. The activities in the hostel are easy and fast to make. As babysitter, Leonidas and Achilleas are nice and funny children. Thank you for this experience!

I had a very pleasant experience in this volunteer program. Ioanna is an exceptional person, always attentive and willing to help with any questions. She made sure I had everything I needed, which made me feel very comfortable. I had the opportunity to take care of her children, who are lovely and well-mannered. The tasks were simple and easy to carry out. Additionally, the hostel has an excellent location. I highly recommend this experience. Thank you, Ioanna, for everything! I hope to repeat this experience in the future.

My stay at Ioanna's house was great! The shifts were only a few hours a day which allowed me to explore the city or nearby places. Ioanna was always concerned about food since I am a vegetarian, and she made me a lot of delicious food!! I had a really good time with Ioanna and the boys, thank you!
