Description

You’ll pay €400 as a deposit upon arrival. You'll get it back when you depart. Damages to the property or bike will be deducted. In case you don’t comply to the arrangements/agreements we made, this amount will count as a fee to stay with us. It’s the first time in over 3 years that I will use this fee, but because of an unfortunate experience, I feel I need to. Luckily all the other experiences have been great so far, so my hopes are high!

The Experience

Cooking, cleaning, babysitting! You'll be responsible for cooking meals (1x day) for my toddlers (3 years old), myself and yourself. (experience needed!)

I had a really good experience. Kids are lovely and well behaved. They have their routine and they love to eat and play outside. Annabell was flexible with days off and schedule. You also have your own room and shared bathroom. If you like kids and want to join a the home family I absolutely recommend this volunteering. Can't wait to see them again!
