Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Hi families, my name is Jenna-Mai and I have been au pairing going on 8 years, 2.5 of those years was in America. I am a responsible, patient and reliable person, I never shy away from a challenge and always love learning new things. I am a hard worker who strive towards excellence in all that I do. I have great communication skills and speak up when a problem arises. I am also studying bachelor of education in foundation phase teaching.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I would make the perfect au pair because I am a very outgoing, fun-loving and caring individual. I love being around children and teaching them new skills and helping them grow as individuals as well as learning from them as I think children can teach you a lot of things. I like to provide a steady and loving environment for your children and make sure we are on the same page as to what is happening in your kids day to day lives.

Hobbies and other interests

My hobbies include playing volleyball, going on bike rides, spending time in nature and spending time with my friends and loved ones. I like a good balance of physical activity as well using my mind for creative projects.

Employer comments

Jenna-Mai is a dynamic, cheerful, sweet, fun girl. My kids loved her so much and we were so sad when Jen's time in the US had to come to an end. She is excellent at taking direction and will do literally anything to make her host family happy. She is an excellent driver and we trusted implicitly with our kids. Excellent at keeping to the family's routines. Can't say enough good things about sweet Jen!!
