Introduction to families
"Dear Family" message
I am Marilise L, I studied Education at the university of the Free State (UFS) for three years. My home language is Afrikaans but I am fairly bilingual. I have two younger sisters of which the youngest is 18 years old. I am planning to complete my studies through UNISA, therefore I need employment to fund my studies and to keep me occupied. I matriculated from Hangklip High School in Queenstown, Eastern Cape and currently resides with my parents in Paarl.
Why I would make the perfect au pair
I already have completed close to three years of my Education degree and would be able to assist children with their studies. I also have completed Grade 4 at UNISA in piano studies. I enjoy being with people of all ages and would be in a position to contribute to their lives. I am a diabetic and therefore have good knowledge of dietary requirements for low carbohydrate diet and could therefore instill good eating habits.
Hobbies and other interests
I enjoy reading, listening to music and I am a keen hockey spectator. I used to play hockey for my school and at university. I also enjoy watching movies and being in the outdoors.

Job description
I fetched the girls from school and drove them home and also made sure they arrived on time at their various extramural activities. I made them lunch and also sometimes started dinner when required. I helped the youngest (grade 7) with homework and assignments and assisted her with the summarizing of her work. I had to do shopping for the family as well.

Employer comments
Marilise is a diligent young lady, always making sure the girls were where they needed to be , on time. She helped my youngest to stay up to date with homework. She never minded to stay later, always willing and able to help! She made the girls lunch, and sometimes started dinner for the family. She also helped with other errands and shopping for the family. I would recommend her for any position she applies for!
