Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, My name is Thobane Thapelo S, and I was previously a au pair in the United States. I am looking forward to meeting you. I hold a Higher Certificate in Early Childhood Development and a CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) certificate, along with CPR and First Aid training. My experience in both early childhood care and healthcare has helped me become confident, calm under pressure, and deeply attentive to children’s needs. Being an au pair abroad has allowed me to grow not only as a caregiver but also as a person. I’ve learned the importance of consistency, empathy, and creativity in helping children thrive. I love spending time outdoors, reading stories, doing crafts, and creating a safe, positive space where children can feel secure and supported. I would be honored to be part of your family, helping your little ones grow, learn, and have fun while supporting you in your day-to-day routines. Thank you so much for considering me, and I’m truly looking forward to the opportunity to connect with your family when I return home. Warm regards, Thobane Thapelo S

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I believe I’d make a great au pair because I’m caring, responsible, and genuinely enjoy working with children. With my background in Early Childhood Development and experience as an au pair in the U. S., I’ve learned how to create a safe, fun, and structured environment for kids to thrive in. I’m patient, dependable, and easy to get along with. I enjoy helping with daily routines, playtime, and learning activities. I’m also committed to building a strong, respectful relationship with your family and becoming a positive part of your child’s life. As your au pair, I’d be happy to help with your children's daily routine including getting them ready for school, drop-offs and pick-ups, preparing meals or snacks, assisting with homework, and taking them to his extracurricular activities. I’d also keep things organized at home related to their care (like tidying play areas, packing lunches, etc.) and plan fun, age-appropriate activities when they're not in school.

Hobbies and other interests

In my free time, I enjoy reading, listening to music, going for walks, and exploring new places. I love cooking simple meals and trying out healthy recipes. I also enjoy spending time with children, doing creative activities like arts and crafts or storytelling. I’m passionate about self-improvement and enjoy learning new things, especially about different cultures and people.
