Introduction to families
"Dear Family" message
I would love to add my creative and positive energy to your family. I am extremely open-minded and accepting because I have such an affinity for people. But more relevantly, I find value in connecting with children.
Why I would make the perfect au pair
I am naturally attentive and caring, especially towards children. I have experience as a teacher's assistant for 2-3 year old kids, as well as babysitting experience. I understand the importance and impact a caregiver could have on a child's development and I will always go the extra mile.
Hobbies and other interests
Anything to do with the arts: music & fine art. Because of my creative nature and endless interest for learning new skills, I am quite handy, seeing as I can weld, do woodwork, sew, cook, etc.
