Looking for family friendly stay!

Tenant Looking for a Home in Amsterdam, NH, Netherlands
Monthly Budget: Maximum EUR €4000

Looking for an Entire Home | Willing to Housesit
Tenant Timing: From November 11, 2026 until December 6, 2026

Description

I am a lawyer at the University of Calgary, where I negotiate medical research contracts. We are a family of five (two adults and three kids) living in Canada. Our family is dual citizens (Canadian/Nederlands) and seeking to do a month long visit to Amsterdam so my children can practice their Dutch language skills in an immersive setting, while also visiting family. We are looking for a place to stay for one month, ideally in November / December 2026. My husband works remotely and will maintain his normal work schedule during the trip, so wifi is a must. The children (ages 6, 9, 11) will be bringing their school-work and we will maintain a school routine during our visit. The children are extremely well behaved and calm, and do not require any kind of “childproofing” in the home. Just enough spots to sleep! We know homes in Nederland can be smaller and are perfectly comfortable with a small flat, and are ok to supplement sleeping arrangements with air mattress on the floor if needed. Ideally there would be two bedrooms (one for adults, one for kids), but we are flexible. We are an easy going and low maintenance family, tidy and quiet. We are very familiar with Amsterdam and the surrounding areas, my husband and I both speak Dutch. We are all comfortable with and love animals, so pets are no problem for us. If you have any bikes to lend us we would happily accept them! If our host is interested in an exchange for a stay at our home in Calgary, Alberta, Canada we would be more than happy to discuss that as an option.

Considerations

I prefer a home suitable for young kids

I prefer smoking not allowed in the home

Comments: We have three children all school aged (6-11) who are very well behaved and calm. We do not require toys or any special child-friendly accommodations, just enough beds to sleep everyone (but are not above an air mattress on the floor!)
