Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear family, I would love to become your next au pair. I'm outgoing, I love children and enjoy spending time with them. I have been assisting families with childcare for over 6 years, ranging from ages 2 to 16. I approach my role with the utmost dedication and care. My #1 priority will be the safety and well-being of your child.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

From past experience, I can say with certainty that I will be able to strike the perfect balance between friend and authority figure. I believe in a holistic approach to childcare and that growth comes through having healthy rhythms and boundaries. I would love to have a strong line of communication with parents so that we are all clear on expectations and boundaries. I am trustworthy, reliable and will fully commit to your family.

Hobbies and other interests

I enjoy painting, drawing, cooking, baking, reading, music, and the occasional TV show or movie. I also enjoy outdoor activities such as walking, hiking and cycling.
