Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family My name Is Karien H and I'm from a small town called Fort Beaufort. I am currently an au pair in the US until February 2024. Before coming to the US I was a holiday au pair and a preschool teacher, along with being a full time student. I am currently interested into going back to SA, since I want to complete my Bed in Foundation Phase teaching. I have a strong passion for children and I have also been a regular (weekly) babysitter in my hometown since 2016. I don't see myself in any other profession that does not involve kids. If you are looking for a creative, hardworking and committed au pair, I will be there!

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I would make a perfect au pair since I have a strong passion for working with children!

Hobbies and other interests

Fishing, going to the beach, hiking, being with my friends and traveling.
