Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

My name is Pearl K born and raised in Pretoria. I come from a disciplined loving family with principles. I a mature young lady who hopes to be of benefit to your family. I'm currently doing my 3rd year, Studying Early Childhood Development with Richfield College, I'm a part time student so that I can be a full time Au-Pair. I started babysitting when I was in grade 11 in 2015, during holidays and weekends. I am particularly interested in experiencing how other people's family life is. I love children and watching them learn and grow is a precious gift, being part of their forming years will be a privilege. I like organize learning activities: Both, indoor and outdoor activities - playing games, role play, painting, and storytelling is my most favorite activity. I appreciate the simple things in life. I enjoy being outdoors, being with my friends & family, going for walks/hiking, & visiting places I have not been to. I'm very family orientated. II recently worked in the USA as a Au pair. Got the chance to work with a family in New Jersey & in Maryland. I would also prefer looking after infants to 18years. I’ve worked with a child under the spectrum, took a lot of learning but I can honestly say it was a great experience being in the US. I would be happy to have the opportunity to speak with you: to answer whatever questions you may have about me or my childcare experiences; to learn more about your family; your interests and to know more about what you expect from the au pair arrangement. Thank you very much for your interest in my application! I look forward to hearing from you

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I'm very patient with children and I love them. I have worked with kids before and have an understanding of them. I enjoy helping them stimulate their brain and enjoy playing with them.

Hobbies and other interests

cooking and baking, playing board games and doing outdoor activities.
