Newsletter Grannies - Do you have the „Wanderlust“-gene?

Dear Ladies,

Strange but true – last year scientists discovered the so called „Wanderlust“-gene. Or to be more specific the DRD4-7R gene. People who carry this gene are said to be especially
curious and restless, according to various researchers. Moreover, they are willing to take risks, and more interested in trying out new things than most people. One of their favorite things: To discover new countries and cultures on holiday, or to see something new and get away from everything for at least a couple of weeks per year.

Around
20 percent of the population are carriers of the DRD4-7R gene. And we are sure that very many of our Granny Aupairs also carry this gene in them! The urge to travel knows no age limit! And so not only spring chickens may profit from the au pair idea, but also seasoned women over 50. Our Grannies support the families they travel to. As a temporary Granny they share the joys of everyday life and are the daily go-to person for the smaller concerns and needs of the youngest. Or would you rather help in a social project as a Granny Aupair? As a volunteer in one of them you support the world’s poorest with your expertise and commitment. 

Today we want to awaken your Wanderlust! A mixture of college life in
town and extremely isolated life in the country can be found in Canada. In northern British Columbia in the West of Canada a small family is looking for support as from September for the 19 year old daughter, who has Down Syndrome. The young woman goes to college in town during the week and needs a bit of help for visiting college and other activities. At the weekend the Granny Aupair will live with the daughter at the mothers in the beautiful wilds of the Canadian province.

Historic castle, Old Market Square, Sherwood Forest and Robin Hood! This is what you can see and experience in
Nottingham in the heart of England. The newly named UNESCO “City of Literature” offers you culture, history, the arts, fine dining, relaxing breaks and shopping opportunities. Here a granny experienced family of four is looking forward to welcoming their next temporary Granny as from October.

A beautiful landscape with green forests, volcanoes and many lakes. Puerto Varas on the south shore of lake Llanquihue in
South Chile is well known for its many wooden houses built in the colonial style. The town in the midst of the Chilean lake district in Patagonia offers many possibilities: In addition to its beaches and bathing resorts in the summer, other interesting attractions lie a few kilometers away. A small international family with a little boy would like to welcome an energetic and patient Granny Aupair as soon as possible.  

As always we introduce you to selected families in our newsletter. You can find more families at www.granny-aupair.com 

Best wishes from

Michaela Hansen and your Granny Aupair Team

 

 

City Life and Country Experience

In the North of  British Columbia this Granny-experienced small family (Mother and 19 year old daughter, user name: Gundula) would like to welcome their new Granny Aupair soon, who should also have a driving license. The daughter, who has Down Syndrome, goes to college in the next town and would share an apartment with the Granny Aupair, who should support her with her daily living activities and traveling back and forth. The long weekends are spent with the mother in extremely rural surroundings. A car is also provided.

In the heart of England

In Nottingham in the midst of England this German-English vegetarian family of four (user name: Birgit) is looking forward to their next Granny Aupair as from October. The two little girls (5 and 4) go to nursery school until the afternoon on most days, so the Granny would have enough time to explore the surroundings or visit a language course. The Granny will have a lovely large room with private bath in a big house on the outskirts. The travel costs will be taken over completely.
