Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, my name is Nikita, I am currently 22 years old. I live in Simons Town in the South Peninsula of Cape Town. I am a kind, reliable and caring person and therefore you can rest assured knowing I will take care of your child and their needs to the best of my ability, while always treating them with respect and kindness. I will be able to stay with your children while your out or away, lift them to school or wherever they need to go, cook and help them with homework or school tasks. I can also provide additional tutoring for subjects they may need extra help with.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I have always loved children and interacting with them. I'm a caring person so looking after and taking responsibility for children comes naturally to me. I'm reliable and so you and your children will be able to count on me. I also have years experience with various different types of children and know how to interact with them and make them feel comfortable.

Hobbies and other interests

My hobbies and interests include volunteering at animal shelters (TEARS), petsitting, hiking, art, reading and going to the beach.

Job description

I was a nanny for a family who was on holiday in Simonstown for December of 2023. I looked after their son while they went out and went with the family on outings to help take care of their son and keep him entertained. Other job tasks included cooking and feeding the child meals, playing with him and nappy changes.
