We need help on morning (7 to 9am) and afternoon pick up (4 to 7pm)+ 2 full days with Luca. Light chores and meal prep are required. A driver's license is essential. We offer food, a private bedroom/bathroom, so 40 hrs for $100/week + possibility to use our car. Bonus if you speak French or Spanish.

I spend a great 3 month here. It was a completely new experience for me, so at times a bit challenging caring for 2 young kids but absolutely worth it. The hours were as agreed upon, the house and location absolutely stunning and the family is totally welcoming and supportive. I've learnt and experienced so much while staying here. Thank you Caro and Jacques for everything!
