This has been my first volunteering experience and I would highly recommend it.
Patricia was from the start very kind, transparent, and available, explaining to me well the tasks, the schedules, and the rules.
Axel is a really good, kind, and super intelligent boy. He is curious and creative; he always has a ton of ideas, and being with him has been a lot of fun and has taught me a lot about his passion for airplanes.
The environment is welcoming; I have greatly appreciated the flexibility in the schedules and the clarity in communication. Thank you!! I would highly recommend it!

Francesca, you have been a top volunteer, one of the best, if not the best we've had! 😊
I appreciate your willingness and also the respect you have shown at all times. It has been a true pleasure to have you! Big hug 🤗

It was nice meeting Patricia and Axel. At first, the relationship with them was very friendly. You say it was a wonderful experience, but it wasn't, because on the last day Patricia yelled at me, threw my washed clothes on the floor, and humiliated me for using her washing machine. I fulfilled everything they asked of me. I did not ask them for food, and in addition to doing my own shopping, I had to pay out of my own pocket to buy the things Axel wanted for painting, and in the end I repaired items in the house, installed items they asked for, I did everything, and yet they threw my belongings onto the street in an abusive way. Disappointing

Daniel at first glance seems very polite, but unfortunately his attitude changed when his week-long efforts faded away completely and he chose to disregard all house rules and living together; besides his sole task, which was to do activities with my son, he would fall asleep several times until noon. If he bought something, he did it because he wanted to; no one asked him to. His stay ended with him not wanting to leave, so I had to call the police. A very bad experience.

Con cada oportunidad puede existir una gran experiencia y yo tuve esa oportunidad de tener esta gran experiencia conociendo a Patricia y Axel. Patricia fue excelente y muy amable, siempre manteniendo buena comunicación al día para estar cómoda y tener una buena experiencia. Axel es un niño con gran imaginación, mucha energía, gracioso, creativo y listo para tener una aventura. Cada día fue genial, para mí. Gracias.
