I used to babysit family children of ages 2,4 and 8 during holidays and sometimes during the school year. During school year I basically look after them, got them ready before school, take them to school and again when they come from aftercare.

Introduction to families
My name is Michaela R. I grew up in Atlantis my whole life, but I moved after school to get a better education and greater future. I started my studies directly after school and this is my final year. I decided during this year that I want to gain childcare experience in this field, before I enter the basic education system. We had practical's during the course of study, but personally I do not feel equipped for the education system right now. I want to use my skills and knowledge to help to build experience that can only be a benefit for future course.
I think I would make a perfect au pair because my passion is with children. Since I can remember I wanted to be a teacher. During high school I wanted to do au pair, but education was a must according to my parents after school. This is my chance now to do something that my heart really desire and aspire to do. With the knowledge I gained I can be the best home teacher in the making au pair, I want to teach them lifelong lessons in spectacular ways, connect with them on professional ways. Build lifelong connections. This sounds like I am applying for teacher job, but I feel like every au pair worker in the world takes on the most roles that teachers sometimes take on. With this being said I believe I can be the best future au pair to your children.
During my course of study, I was still developing as a teenager into adulthood and discovered a variety of things that I like. Long walks on the beach, preferably alone is my favourite thing to do. Hiking also became a thing to do, but always planned ahead. Cleaning (doing chores in or outside the house, without anyone telling me to do it) is also one of my strongest coping mechanisms during stressful times.
