Introduction to families
"Dear Family" message
Dear loving family, my name is Dilene W. Thank you for taking the time to view my profile. I enjoy helping people andI look forward to meeting you all and becoming a part of your family, to work with you and help and assist where I can so that your daily/ weekly routine can be a bit easier. I am good with pets, I have 2 rabbits, a German Sheperd puppy, fish, 2 African Grey parrots and a beautiful Red Rump parakeet.
Why I would make the perfect au pair
I think would make the perfect au pair because I have studied early childhood and obtained my NQF level 4 in early childhood development. I have worked in 2 schools namely Constantia pre school and Constantia Waldorf school where I volunteered 2 years and gained experience in the classroom such as multi tasking, being creative and passionate, patient and kind. I have worked with all kinds of children over the years including ages and religious beliefs. I am hardworking and fun loving once you get to know me, I am punctual, organised, patient, trustworthy, respectful especially of other peoples homes and things, I am energetic and like to have a system or routine to keep me grounded. I am very creative and I enjoy making things with my hands. I have created many wonderful things with these hands such as dolls and toys and clothes to party set ups and gardens. Down to earth as they come I was raised from humble beginnings by a single mother who did her utmost best to make sure I had all I needed. I truly enjoy working with children as it has been my passion since I was little whereby I looked after my little sister growing up. If you give me the opportunity I can guarantee your child will be cared for and loved as if they were my own little brother or sister, and make sure I can instill good values and habits so that they can be the best version of themselves.
Hobbies and other interests
My hobbies and interests include taking care of animals, gardening, reading, art and crafts, meditation, listening to music, hiking, going for walks or spending time in nature at the beach or parks and I also enjoy cooking and baking.
