Our home in Rome
Welcome
The HOSTEL, run by the Religious of Mary Immaculate, welcomes 65 young women aged 18 to 28, from September to July, who are far from their families for their studies or for their entry into the world of work.
It offers more than just accommodation. Set in a Christian environment, the friendly family atmosphere is conducive to studying. The hostel’s organisation focuses on active participation and awareness of the common good, allowing for responsibility, friendship and collaboration, through activities on offer and the involvement of each and every one in daily life.
The sisters collaborate in the integral development of each young person, with the possibility of maturing in the Christian faith for those who would so wish.

Help at home
Through this place of listening, we bring together two needs that answer to each other: that of people (especially young women) who are looking for a dignified job as “family collaborators”, and that of families who need help at home, for cleaning, cooking, looking after the elderly or children (baby-sitting), etc.
We thus help:
– Families looking for:
- Domestic help, internal, external / part-time (cleaning, etc.)
- Home help for the elderly
- Baby-sitting / help for children (au pair, baby-sitter…)
- Attending medical appointments
– And young women looking for work in domestic services and home help.
