The experience
We are a family of four, with two 13-year-old boys, and we live in a quiet chalet with a garden and a pool in Alhaurín de la Torre. We are looking for someone sensitive, practical, responsible, and with initiative who wants to become part of our family. We mainly need help with house chores, cooking, routines, and accompanying the kids in their studies and activities. We seek to share, learn, and enjoy this experience together.

Program Details
We are looking for a responsible, open person with a desire to live a cultural exchange experience in our family.
We live in a quiet chalet in Alhaurín de la Torre, near Málaga, with a garden and a pool. The worldpacker will have their own room on the ground floor of the house, while we live on the upper floor. On the ground floor there is a toilet that would be used almost exclusively and a bathroom with a shower that they would share with our children.
We are a family of four: Cristian, Fátima and our 13-year-old twins. We are a creative, close, curious family and we enjoy sharing conversations, meals, music, cinema and different ways of looking at the world.
We would like the person who comes to feel integrated into family life, but also have their own space and freedom to enjoy their free time and to get to know Málaga and Andalusia.
Activities & Shift
The collaboration will be mainly focused on helping us with some daily household tasks and with family life.
We are looking for a person who can collaborate with small domestic tasks, keep the common spaces tidy, and lend us a hand from time to time with some needs related to our children.
We are not looking for someone who will act as a housekeeper, but someone who participates in a responsible and balanced way in the life of the house.
The schedules and concrete tasks will be agreed in advance, aiming for flexibility and that the person also has time for their own.
Rules
For us it is important that the person adapts to the family dynamics and respects our schedules and living rules. During the week we seek a quiet, family life: we eat dinner and go to bed at regular times and we expect the person to be present at home in the evenings. We also seek a healthy and responsible lifestyle, with no alcohol consumption during the stay.
