Welcome Letter to the Au Pair

Originally translated from Italiano

HI. I'm Sofia, the mother of 3 children, 2 girls aged 11 and 9 and a 3 year old boy. We live near Lucca, a city in the heart of Tuscany.
The dad lives nearby and takes care of them 50%. I need help for the days the kids stay home with me.
I am of foreign origins, half English and half German, but I was born and raised in this city. I speak Italian, English and Spanish. The dad is Italian.
The children are calm, they love country life, we try to spend as much time as possible outdoor in the garden, they are also very creative, they love manual work such as drawing, creating origami and helping in the kitchen. They are open and communicative children, they like meeting new people and having new experiences. I try to limit the use of electronic devices.
We have had always babysitters to help us 2/3 times a week, we have always bonded a lot with them.
I like the idea of having a girl living with us not only for the help I can have but also for the possibility that the children can have in relating to a person outside the family and learning a foreign language.

Job Description

Originally translated from Italiano

I really care that whoever comes to stay with us establishes a relationship of friendship and affection with the children, a bit like an older sister, I would like her to be part of the family, obviously respecting each other's privacy.
The work to be carried out will be for 3 or 4 half days and 1 or 2 evenings a week. When you stay with the children you will have to help them with their homework, play with them, maybe if necessary make them take a shower and cook them dinner. If you have to stay whit them in the evening then you will have to put them to bed.
It may happen that one of the children gets sick and if I have to work I would like you to take care of them for half a day.
To facilitate travel, such as picking up children from school or taking them to sports, I provide a car, which can obviously also be used in your free time.
I expect a weekly job of around 15 hours and a salary of around 300 per month.

Accommodation

Originally translated from Italiano

We live in an urbanized countryside area near the city, 4km from the center. It is a quiet place but at the same time with the possibility of moving towards the city without difficulty. There is a bus stop less than 1km away and you can also use the bicycle to get around. However, we will have a car available to drive around.
The house is quite big, everyone has their own room, in the livingroom we have a wood stove to keep warm in the winter, in the rest of the house we heat ourselves with central heating.
We have a large garden, a vegetable patch that we look after only in spring and summer and a small chicken coop with 2 chickens. For children there is a beautiful tree house and a swimming pool for the summer.
We have a large room overlooking the garden and a private bathroom available for those who come to stay with us. In the room there are: a double bed, a wardrobe, a desk and a bookcase.
