Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear prospective host family. I am a responsible, fun, punctual, ambitious, hard working young lady who is studying early childhood development. I am dedicated to creating a stimulating, educational, encouraging, safe environment for each child's and parents individual needs. During my 5 years’ experience of childcare, I have developed strong skills in supporting young children, from infants to ages 12 and I am genuinely passionate about providing the best child care, educational stimulation and play experiences. As young as I am, I have an excellent record of working successfully with families in different environments. I take pride in being able to handle difficult situations sympathetically but with professionalism. I am also extremely open to trying out new things as I love learning. Thank you for taking the time to view my profile.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

In my 5 years experience of working with children I have learned that if you wish to work in childcare you need a lot of passion and patience in which I certainly do have. ●I have Aupair and nanny experience with 2 TODDLERS and 1 INFANT from one household. Twin girls aged 3 and a 2 year old baby boy for 3 years. ¶ I have Aupair experience with a 5, 7 and 10 year old for 2 years and 3 months. ¶I am a mother of a 20 month old baby boy ¶ I have occasional aupair and baby sitting experience with a 5 and 12 year old for a year I love and enjoy spending time with kids.

Employer comments

Zenani is an energetic, responsible, ambitious, hard working young lady who loves children and taking care of them, she also has big dreams for herself as she aspires to become a Pilot. I have 3 beautiful children. When Zenani started being my baby sitter in January 2014 my children were aged, twins (3 years old) and boy (2 years old). My children love Zenani and enjoyed spending time with her. They would play educational games,she helped potty train them,changed diapers, prepare them food and feed them, bath them, read them bed time stories, took them to the park,took them to the local swimming pool,took walks with them around the complex. She took care of them 5 days a week during the day and night sometimes as I am a shift worker and some weekends. We however moved out of the complex in January 2018 so she stopped working for me in December 2017.
