Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. My name is Carmen and I am 29 years old. I Live in Boksburg. I am a very responsible, nurturing and creative individual who loves being with kids and in the outdoors. Keeping a positive attitude is the most important to me and encouraging is what I love to do. The last 3/4 years I have been working in America in the Carnival industry. I worked in Guest services and as a Ticket Seller. I initials decided to work abroad to explore different countries and cultures, in doing so, I discovered my love for outdoors and being around children. There is nothing more beautiful than the open sky at night, thousands of flashing lights coming from 300 different rides, and the sound of kids running around and laughing as they enjoy every ride. Just seeing their amazing smiles of pure joy brings me so much happiness.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I would love to become your next Au pair because I absolutely adore children and have experience with all different ages. I can help with homework and studying if need be. I am sure that I will adapt to the new tasks and daily routine quickly and become a big help for you and your family.

Hobbies and other interests

I enjoy drawing, painting, sewing and gardening.
