Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

I am super excited about this opportunity. I'm an energetic, twenty-three year old woman with a zeal for life. I come from a big family and have a huge heart for children of all ages. I would be honored to take care of your family.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

As the oldest of four children, I've grown up with a good understanding of taking responsibility in a family dynamic. I've also had considerable experience with children of all ages. I feel comfortable and confident tending to children with certain disabilities, due to growing up with a family member who has down syndrome. I've also been a licensed first aider for over five years, so your children are in good hands. I've had some experience in tutoring and am happy to help young children with homework. Over all, I can adjust to the dynamic of your family and help look after your children the way you want.

Hobbies and other interests

I love expressing my creativity through multiple forms of art. Time in the kitchen always puts a smile on my face and I won't say no to a dining room dance off. I also enjoy the outdoors, be it walks in the park or beach days, I'm always up for an adventure.
