The Experience

I live in Remetschwil, in the canton of Aargau, with my three kids. We are looking for a helping hand around the house, including cooking and gardening. Occasionally, you might also look after the children. What you get in return: a quiet place surrounded by nature, yet not far from towns like Baden, Bremgarten, and Zurich. You’ll love the walks you can take here!

My experience with Simona and her kids was incredible. I felt really confortable from the beginning, all the hours and days are respected as it says on the app, and one week I even had to change the days that I could work because I had to fly unexpectedly and Simona was really flexible and understanding. The position really says it all, I sometimes cooked, watched for the kids, but most of all was helping around the house with cleaning and making order. I really recommend this volunteering position!

I absolutely loved my time with Simona! From the moment I arrived, she greeted me with warmth and excitement right away at the baggage claim. This comforted all my fears immediately of traveling solo to a new Country. The upstairs apartment was clean, modern, and very spacious - an ideal home away from home. Simona went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and cared for in many ways. I highly recommend spending time with Simona and helping out with her lovely children and beautiful home. It truly was a memorable and heartwarming experience.
