My name is Philiswa D, I am a Swazi by nationality, and I am 30 years old of age, I am so passionate about teaching kids which is why I've chosen a career of being a teacher, I am so loving caring, responsible,, reliable and honest. I think I'm the right candidate to choose to have as an aupair to your kids because, I render a service that is more than that of an aupair, I can teach, psychologically council kids, manage kids behavior in an appropriate manner, I have good, effective and efficient communication skills which lead to me always archiving the best results from learner's academics. I love kids and enjoying seeing them doing better in all spheres of their lives. I am married. I have all valid documents to work in the country, I have good experience as an aupair, tutor and teacher.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I prefer aupairing because I am so passionate in working with kids and wanna explore more knowledge in grooming the young generation and help them grow up disciplined, learned and know how to be responsible and respectful citizens of the country. I think I am the best aupair because I render more services beyond those expected from an ordinary aupair and I want to showcase my skills, abillities and knowledge with any of the potential families interested in my profile.

Employer comments

Excellent! Philiswa is a very trustworthy and fun companion to my boys. She makes it a point to go above and beyond what was expected, introducing new activities, play ideas and educational resources. During her time with us she helped turn my 7th grader from a struggling to an excellent student. Philiswa is highly recommended.
