    Description

    Dear Workwayers

    Our family is settled in a small town located in the southern Alps known for its sunshine and especially for its ski slopes since it is part of the Serre Chevalier domain. We are a sporty and dynamic family, our 5 and 9 year old children practice many outdoor activities, I hope you like it !
    We are a happy family, enjoying outdoor activities. Mountains around are a big playground ! Our two children are a 5 years old girl and a 9 years old boy (he lives with us half time), we also have two puppies !
    My husband and I are both working in a bank, he also is a ski instructor.

    Our children are going dayly at the same school, M T T S. We will drive them on mornings. You will have to pick them for lunch time and at 4:20 pm after class, sometimes to go with them to there activities, until diner time. They will stay home with you on wednesday and saturday (morning).
    Your days off will be sunday and monday, but very welcome to share time with us if you want.
    We will ask you to do some light chores during the week and babysitting from time to time on the evening.
    This will never exceed 25 hours per week. During school breaks, witch longs for two weeks every time in France, you will work one week and have the other free.
    We also plan to let you go home during Christmas holidays if you want !

    You will be comfortably housed and will be able to take French lessons near the house.
    We live in a large apartment with a big garden in the very center of our little town and at a foot-distance to all activities and ski slopes !
    You will have a small apartment just nearby (except during holidays, you will have a room at ours during these times)

    We can't wait to meet you!

    Italy is 15 minutes away, we can go to Turin by car on a 1.5 hour trip !
