Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Hello Dear Family. My name is Ledean and I’m currently staying in Glen Marais Kempton Park. I have been an Au Pair part time for the last 2 years. I am a caring and loving person with strong norms and values. I am a great time-keeper and know how to bring the best out of children. I understand what a family expectations are from an au-pair due to experience in the field. I absolutely love children and would love to make a difference in your life and be an asset for your family.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I have a huge passion for children, I’m always helping where I can from homework to being a friend. I’ve tutored while I were in school and helped pupils among me with emotional trauma. I have experience with special needs children as I worked for a school for Autistic children, with that said am I also a Reflex Coach that assist and help with child development from infant up to teens. I love spending time with children and I get along with them easily. I am loyal, hardworking and I always give 100% in what even I do. I enjoy every minute of it and seeing the children reach their milestones, and growing into well groomed teens. I believe in planning to make sure your children arrive on time at school and after school activities. I am mature and responsible to make sure your children is safe and accounted for at all times. I have the skill to communicate and understand children on their level and for that reason they feel safe and comfortable with me. I am creative and will come up with new games and craft projects. I have patience and flexible when needed.

Hobbies and other interests

My hobbies and interest includes paining, listening to music, anything to do with drama and acting, fishing or just be outside taking walks. I love singing and laughing, but can also be serious. I love numbers, problem solving and baking.

Job description

I’m taking the children to school in the morning and also pick them up after school. I then need to make sure they are doing their homework properly, help them study, question them on their work, help with tasks or projects and I make sure all their stuff is handed in and signed. I also then plan their days for them for a month in advance and work accordingly. All their work were on a laptop so I needed to make sure that they weren't distracted with other stuff on their computers.

My duties included; preparing breakfast and lunch from scratch for school and after school activities. Picking up and dropping off from school and take them to their outdoor activities. I helped them with their homework, speeches, tasks and projects. I also tutored them when they were writing tests and exams. I made sure their books are well looked after and that their bags are clean. I stayed in sometimes to assist further with more duties like making sure they eat dinner, bath and be ready for the next day. I became their friend and they trusted me with their personal experience and what they had done for the day. I attended sports events and school evenings when the parents could not make it. I have a license so I drove with a car provided by the family.

Job description

When I started helping my aunt the girls were 9 and 14 and the boys were 7 and 2. I helped my aunt by babysitting and tutoring the children since I were still in school. I helped with extra math classes and helping them practice math to learn the skills. I tutored them before tests and helped by writing speeches, projects and tasks. One thing that stood out was learning them how to manage their time to get everything done. I babysit the little boy, while he were with me I helped him with his fine motor skills, helped speech development and learning him walk. We did fun stimulating games and crafts to keep him busy. I fed him and made sure that he takes his afternoon nap. I bathed him and just watched him grow up.
