Welcome Letter to the Au Pair

Our family is made up of a retired university professor and music producer and an adorable but crafty dog. Alas the former has now been diagnosed with an illness which means he needs help doing stuff like dressing bathing eating and so on, even if he is still perfectly mobile and active. The dog, on the other hand, is as healthy as a trout but would not say no to some extra love and affection, for which he is a glutton. We live in a big house with garden in a secluded spot in northern Italy which is about as beautiful as you can get. There is a big town about 15 minutes away by car, which is available at mostly all times. There is also a language school about 10. mins away by car.

Job Description

Anyone caring to give some care to the old guy would have to help him bathing and dressing and eating and preparing for bed. There are some elementary medical tasks to do but they are easily taught and do not involve injections et cetera - rather the administration of pills and the operation of an aerosol machine. She would also need to cook, keep the house clean, and do the washing (We have a brand new washing machine and tumble dryer). If he does anything wrong, she will also need to scold the dog, who will promptly ignore her and gambol off into the garden.
2. languages are spoken in the house (not by the dog), namely English and Italian. A working knowledge of Italian would of course be useful. Arguments are usually carried out in English. That way the old guy wins. All other languages are of course welcome.
The caregiver would also be expected to drive the family about if necessary, even on longer trips to the Tuscan coast. The Caregiver word also be able to use the car themselves.
