Description
We are a young Chilean surfer family of 4 living in Máncora Perú.
6 year old Silvestre, 1.5 year old baby Julia, Martin and I.
As my husbands job´s requires him to travel to Chile during winter, i´m in search for some nice girl who can help me out with the kids during the afternoons/bed time.
We live walking distance from the main beach and surf point, with a gentle nice long left wave. It is perfect to learn or just enjoy if your are more advance. I am not surfing at the moment as I am 6 month pregnant.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You will have enough time to surf, relax or work during morning hours. We are walking distance to town and the beach. The community here is very nice and you will meet a beautiful group of friends of ours. We are very much family orientated but we do know some single young people who we can refer you to in order to hang out or have nights out. You can practice your Spanish here and also, if you want to, you can volunteer at the Montessori school where my oldest son goes, or help me out with surfing therapy to kids every friday... just if wanted as extra experience.

Help
I need someone who can stay for close to a month from August 8th til Sept 2nd (more or less)
Help needed is basically help me looking after the kids during the afternoons. Basic Spanish is a must in order to communicate with my oldest. The job is easy if you love kids and are energetic and PLAYFUL. I do expect little help on Saturdays, so the hours can be spread as 4 hours during week time between 16:00 - 20:00 pm.
Mornings are settled as we have a babysitter for the baby and the oldest goes to school.
We can take turns with both and just spread duties or activities such as taking my oldest son to Jiujitsu, skate lessons, football or just playing cards and hanging out with him.
Spending time with baby Julia is easy, she likes to play little leggos, read a book or go out for a walk.
BED TIME is crucial with both as it can get a bit hectic between 7:00-8:00 pm, helping me giving the baby a bath or preparing dinner for the oldest.
Personally, I like people who are observant and can quickly understand the household routines and the children’s needs. Someone with a proactive and helpful attitude, who takes initiative.

Accommodation
We have an extra room for guests, which is private, double bed and private bathroom. Very comfy.
We will provide food and whatever item is bought for family meals, but I do expect some help in the kitchen if needed for meal prep. (We do have a lady who helps out twice a week, but sometimes is not enough) I will not be buying meals at restaurants, this will need to be covered by you.
We do have a quad bike or ATV that you could use occasionally in turns with me and the kids.
What else ...
town is small and not much to do beside surfing. But there is some yoga clases and some different workshops around.

She is the best workaweyer so far that we have had in the past years. She easily read all the house dinamics and functioning in order to follow them smoothly. She was a great companion also for my self, no just a help, bus a good friend who you can talk to easily.
She is very young, but very wise and mature. Light and… read more
Very committed and responsible, but also independent and made her way through town life for surf clases and making friends.
Totally recommend her!
