Program Details
We are a kind, respectful, and welcoming family 🤝, committed to harmonious coexistence 🕊. Our 8-year-old son is a very calm, well-mannered, and affectionate child 💙, with a respectful attitude towards adults and a good willingness to learn 📖. We would like him to strengthen his English skills through natural, playful and consistent interaction in a trusted environment 🎲. We want the person who joins us to truly feel welcomed as part of our family, and we will do everything we can to support their smooth integration and overall wellbeing 🌟.
Activities & Shift
We are offering a part-time position of 4 hours per day, Monday to Friday 🗓, for a native English speaker. The role includes 2 hours of general household support (daily cleaning and light tidying), and 2 hours dedicated to interacting in English with our son through conversation, games, reading and light academic reinforcement. Weekends will be completely free 🎉, and the schedule allows plenty of time to study, train or enjoy the city 🌇.
Rules
Accommodation and conditions 🛏🍽
The selected person will live with us in our recently renovated home 🛠 and will have a comfortable, private single room. They will have full access to all areas and facilities of the house, including a dedicated space in the fridge and full use of the kitchen and other household amenities. Providing accommodation in this area is a great added value 💡, as rental prices in the city are currently very high and availability is limited. We want you to feel truly at ease — with both independence and inclusion — in a calm, stable and friendly environment 🌼.
