Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Hello families! I am Tanita A, 29 years old and I currently live in Pretoria. Originally I am from Cape Town but made the move to be closer to my fiancés family. I am passionate about working with children and my goal is to be a teacher in the near future.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I have been au pairing for 7 years now and have experience working with children of all different ages. I au paired in New York for 2 years and since my return in 2016 I have been au pairing here in South Africa. I am passionate about working with children. I am hard working, loyal, trustworthy and I am a quick learner when it comes to fitting into a routine of a new family.
