ABOUT THE CHILDREN: A., 7 year old boy, lives with the family always, with the exception of few days a year and half vacations that he spends with his dad in France. His native language is French, but he has been in International Schools (English-based education) for 3 years by now and is perfectly bilingual. Baby-girl (newborn).

They are in fully organized program and very independent. The only help that may be needed from a nanny extra, when the daughters are visiting is help around the kitchen for the evenings.
