The Experience

We are a family with 3 children and we have just arrived on this beautiful place. We need help to start the activity as a gite and more. We need help for the gites but for the garden, the swimming pool and the play room. 5 hours everyday would be a perfect timing, with a variety of tasks from gardening to repairing including houseworks and building. We need somebody who is curious, interested in learning, helpful and likes children too.

I really enjoyed my time with this family. Elodie & Benjamin have been great hosts. They welcomed me into their house and treated me as another member of the family. Their kids were friendly and respectful, and even their animals made me feel welcomed. The place is surrounded by mountains and there's a river nearby. It's perfect if you enjoy the countryside and want to stay in contact with nature, but be warned that the nearest big town is about 9km away. The work was varied and the amount of hours was respected, but be ready to get dirty. Merci beaucoup à toute la famille !

I have only words to express my gratitude. I'm writing this while I'm still sharing with this beautiful family. This has been my first experience and couldn't be better. As promised, I had a comfortable place to stay. Entirely surrounded by stunning landscapes. The sound of the river hmm...Elodie , she's a professor in french and every time I had any doubt she looked for me to understand it better. My french skills improved within days and was quite a challenge to understand kids but that simply made it even better.I feel that I have fulfilled all of my expectations and more. Thank you guys
