Introduction to families
"Dear Family" message
I am vibrant, energetic & motivated, and am currently residing in Seychelles working in the Kids Club at Club Med, & have been for about 1,5years, however my contract is ending soon and I'm hoping to return back to South Africa. Because I’m returning home from another country, a live in option would be ideal for me, however it is not a deal breaker. An ideal position would be running a household/admin for a family who would also need an au pair. I am open to anything though. I would be happy to forward my CV and to have a video call should you be keen to chat & “meet”.
Why I would make the perfect au pair
The emotional well being of a child is my main focus and priority. I consider myself - especially with children - gentle, nurturing, patient and compassionate. Working with children is not just a job for me, it is a lifelong investment for me, them and for you as the parents. Watching them grow into their own people is something I absolutely love witnessing, especially when I am part of that process.
Hobbies and other interests
My hobbies include hiking, exercising, music/playing piano, socializing, travelling, exploring and trying out new places and things.

Employer comments
Meg was a breath of fresh air. She came into our home in a time of our lives that was so stressful and confusing and she brought with her the greatest sense of calm, confidence, positivity and love. She was always reliable and dependable. She went above and beyond her set duties and loved our children like her own. She is responsible and committed, she gives of her best. She is enthusiastic and down right amazing. My children had the absolute best time of their lives with her and were so safe, happy and loved! Meg is really incredible.
