Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear family.... I'm Belinda, I'm formally from Port Shepstone KZN. I'm the youngest of a family of 5. I relocated to Gauteng 6 years go. Seeking better work opportunities. I describe myself as an open, honest, reliable, loyal and faithful person.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

Dear Host family. I'd love for you to chose me as your Au Pair, because I'm absolutely reliable and I love working with children and taking care of them with great ambition, care and love. I also come with excellent teaching skills. I'm Tutoring during the weekends and I'm confident I'd be a great help in helping kids with homework and school projects. I have confidence in myself that I would make your children look up to me as their older sister and part of your family not someone that just their to earn money. Thank you and I look forward to a loving family that's willing to host me.

Hobbies and other interests

Reading, netball, volleyball and swimming.

Employer comments

Belinda was an absolute pleasure to work with. She integrated really well into our family and was incredibly reliable during the time that she was with us. She was very receptive to our requests, but we also encouraged her to share her thoughts with us on Early Childhood Development, which she is studying. This created a collaborative environment and our daughter bonded with her very well. She was especially good with weaning our daughter onto solid foods, as well as providing a stimulating environment for her to explore in. We would highly recommend Belinda for future au pair work.
