Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, My name is Michaela R, and I am currently studying online while seeking a job to further my career. I am a qualified Foundation Phase teacher with a strong academic background, having been a top performer at Varsity College throughout my four years of study. I also have a background in Early Childhood Psychology, which has deepened my understanding of child development. I have a genuine passion for teaching and working with children, and I strive to create a positive, engaging, and supportive environment for them to learn and grow. My dedication to both my personal growth and the development of young minds makes me excited to contribute to their educational journey. Please note that I'm currently living close to lady slipper but will be moving back to PE in less than a month. I'm looking for jobs so that I can help pay rent with my partner well I still study and work online.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I believe I would make the perfect au pair because I am caring, responsible, and adaptable. I have a natural ability to connect with children, offering them patience and understanding while creating a fun and educational environment. I am organized, dependable, and enjoy finding creative ways to engage kids in activities that help them learn and grow. My positive attitude and eagerness to embrace new cultures make me excited to be a supportive and trusted part of your family, while also learning from the experience.

Hobbies and other interests

I have a wide range of hobbies, including painting, pottery, quilling, drawing, reading, and playing games. I enjoy exploring all kinds of art and love learning about new interests from others. I believe that hobbies are not only a great way to express creativity but also a powerful educational tool for young children. By encouraging children to explore their own hobbies and interests, they can grow, learn, and develop new skills in a fun and engaging way. I am excited to share my passion for art and learning with children and help them discover their own creative potential.
