Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, My name is Okwethu Z, I am a 26-year-old Education student, currently studying at the University of South Africa. I come from a family of four girls. I am a Christian and I was raised on good morals and values. I love children and I have always had a passion for teaching and nurturing children.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I believe I would make the perfect Au pair because I have five years' worth of experience with children. For the past 8 years, I worked as a sports coach at Saheti School. I worked mostly with the children in the primary school and I have been a live-out Au Pair for the Xaba family. I am a patient person and I am caring and nurturing. I have always loved children and in turn, children love me. It brings me joy to watch children grow up and reach their full potential.

Hobbies and other interests

I am currently a netball provincial player, I play for Central Gauteng. I also enjoy a variety of sports including: - Cross Country - Volleyball - Soccer - Swimming I also enjoy traveling and reading.
