Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear family. My name is Jayde G, I am a 23 year-old third year BA Law student. I reside in Silver Lakes Golf and Wildlife Estate in Pretoria East. In the year of 2017 I started studying Bcom fashion and marketing at Lisof (a fashion and design college). I did not finish the degree because I did not foresee a future career in the fashion and marketing industry. Amid studying, I aupaired part time to gain experience. In 2018 I took a gap year and worked as a fulltime aupair for the Horn family. In 2019 I began studying BA Law at Tuks and began tutoring Qhawe Thwala. To date, I have approximately 5 years of driving experience and approximately 4 years of childcare experience (due to Covid-19).

Why I would make the perfect au pair

Due to my mother's working hours and line of business, I was assisted by a tutor/aupair for majority of my primary and high school career. My mom always searched for someone who was trustworthy, reliable, intelligent & patient enough to help me get through all of my homework and project and exam preparation without getting irritable. Therefore, I am knowledgeable on the whole process and would love to be this person for your child (ren). Alongside a homework assistant, I would also love to become a part of your family and a big sister to your child (ren). I have an immense passion for children, their well-being and their cognitive ability and functioning. P. S. I take third year psychology as an elective.

Hobbies and other interests

My hobbies include: cooking, baking, reading, shopping and occasionally gardening. I am passionate about the South African legal system and aspire to become a public prosecutor.
