Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

I have always loved working with children. I believe that I can contribute positively to your household by providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for your children.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I am a responsible, patient, caring and loving person and love engaging with children, be it through playing, educating activities or general caretaking. In the past 5 years, I have worked with children from the age of a couple of weeks old to 12 years old as a babysitter, au pair and at our church's Sunday school and babysitting service.

Hobbies and other interests

In my free time, I enjoy reading, dancing (informally), making music and spending time with my friends and family. I love board and card games and being creative with other people.
