Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

I am a caring young lady that loves working with children. I have over 4.5 years experience working with children including neurodivergent children. I have completed both my Undergraduate in Psychology with distinction as well as my Honors in psychology focusing on Child development. I received distinctions for all child/Development psychology courses in both degrees at the university of the Witwatersrand. My passion for young children started at a young age. I am reliable, neat and organized individual that loves spending time with children and watching them grow into their full potential.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I love making children happy and allow them to grow. I enjoy doing the following with children: swim, arts and craft, sports, games and homework. I try make every activity fun, even when it comes to chores.

Hobbies and other interests

I have always had a passion for working with children. I enjoy sports and outdoors. I also ran my own business with helping children study for exams and tests and teaching them study skills while making it fun.
