    Description

    Hello,
    We are a family of 4 (2 kids of 3 & 5) and we just moved to Portugal.

    The kids are in school and we both work from home so are looking to help keep the house in order (cleaning, handling laundry / linen / trash etc) as well as a bit of help with the kids here and there before / after school and occasional baby-sittings.

    We have a dedicated bedroom upstairs with a bathroom (shared with guests when we have, but that's not super often) and we & the kids are downstairs on the ground floor. We live 15min bike from the ocean (fonte da telha) where you can walk / surf / eat / and many other things and we have many nature reserves around us.

    Lisbon is a ~20-30min by Uber (or bus + train) ride if you want to go explore the city.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Our family has lived and traveled in country. We are French, israeli, American. Our son was born in zurich and our daughter in San Francisco. We'd love to have some good food and discuss about travel. We're more than happy to share our experience traveling around many countries, the benefits and challenges that this entails and would love to learn in return about work-away travel experience.

    We are a busy family so we are looking for someone that can primarely help keep our house in order (clean, laundry, put the trash out, change bed / towels weekly, tidy up etc). If you like to cook, that's also a plus :)

    Help with the kids before / after the school would also be needed (as well as a once or twice a week baby-sittings evening).
