Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

I'm a very positive influence on those around me. I can mail you references, but would love to also meet you face-to-face so that we can see how much we will benefit each other.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I'm the au pair & tutor everybody wants because this is my career and not something I'm doing on a temporary basis. Unfortunately, I'm not available for the entire working week as I teach homeschool online as well. However, my online teaching schedule can be changed to fit around the right family. I am currently working somewhere three afternoons per week and would need to give at least a month's notice if/when I leave. I am not in any rush to do so. Reason for looking elsewhere: it's far from my home and I'd like to find something closer (Southern suburbs). MY EXPERIENCE: Newborn babies, toddlers, children aged 3-16, teaching (English, Afrikaans, Maths and general), homework/studying/project assistance, driving, educational stimulation, cooking / meal prepping, giving then the love they need while Mom and Dad aren't around. 💗 THERAPIES: Reinforcement of observations in Physio, Speech and OT. My husband and I are also house and pet-sitters.

Hobbies and other interests

I'm a 3rd year Bible College graduate and am constantly growing. I enjoy the beach, nature, etc. I like to cook and bake, especially discovering healthier ways of cooking. I am also very musical, playing 4 instruments (piano, drums, recorder, guitar) and singing. I enjoy playing video games (computer) as well as going on new adventures and outings.
