Description
We are a family of four members: Anna 36, Filippo 41 and our 2 children 4,5 and 2years old, living on the mesmerising island of Corfu in Greece. Our family house is located directly at the sea, in the middle of the small village of Arillas.
Arillas is a thriving costal community in the northwest of the all-year green island of Corfu, Greece.
The area is especially popular with alternative individual tourism from all over the world, attracted by the unique combination of beautiful beaches, idyllic Greek life, international festivals, retreats, gatherings and spiritual offerings as well as an extensive variety of holistic healing options. In the last years Arillas has become one of the hotspots for alternative tourism in Greece.
We are self employed working internationally and locally.

Help
WE ARE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO:
* enjoys living close to the sea and is happy to be in the nature
* preferably woman (for now, later it can change)
* loves to spend time with children
* will be happy to share a living space with us
* is being kind
* enjoys to cook healthy food
* can be self-sufficient and spend time on his/her own as well
* is happy to have an international background check. Because this position involves our children we will pay to have a comprehensive check. If you have a criminal record that includes violence, or abuse then you shouldn't apply for this role.
* is no-smoker
WHAT KIND OF SUPPORT WE NEED:
As a busy young family with small children and ongoing projects we need support in:
* main priority for us is taking care of our children for 3-4h a day, so we can work meanwhile. It can be playing with them, walking, going to the beach, bringing or picking up from the school, singing, drawing, if you can share some nice skills in physical activities with them is great, reading book, spending time with animals, exploring the nature. They speak fluently italian and russian, understand english and a bit of german. In our household we don't have television and prefer that our kids don't watch cartoons or play with phones, so there is more time to explore the nature around and have nice play together:)
* we would really appreciate help in the house keeping. It can be washing the dishes, putting toys in order, putting the laundry on the dryer, vacuum clean the floor, giving water to the plants.
* time by time to cook or making grocery. We are mostly vegetarian/vegan household witch occasionally fish or meet on the plate. We are passionate about healthy, fresh, delicious food and love to cook ourselves. Yet every day is different and sometimes there is so less time to get everything done at time, so we would very much appreciate once a while cooked meal or a ride to veggie shop.

ABOUT US:
In general we are a family which combines different traditions, languages and loves to explore. Time by time we travel. It is important for us to live mindful and kind with each other, as well to have trustful and transparent communication. We love to practice yoga, qi gong, meditation, play music, sing, spend time at the sea, swim, meet friends, co-create.
I love to work with earth's medicines producing natural products, play piano, guitar and sing, dance, sit at the fire, pray, watch the stars and moon. In this moment my life is very much influenced (besides being a mother) by ancient traditions of indigenous people around the world, which is mostly about self-healing and remembering our true nature as humans.
Filippo is a traveler and owner of a wonderful shop where he sells treasures from all over the world, he holds privat sessions, circles, organises travels and bazaars.
Our daughter 4,5 is very active and knows what she wants, she loves unicorn and spend time with friends, play outside and read a good story before bed.
Smaller one 1,5 is learning everything from the big sister. She has great sense of humour, loves contact dancing, swimming and climbing.
