Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, I am a mature, caring and down to earth 39 year old woman. I am currently taking a break from full-time employment in order to do some freelance writing and consultation. I come from an NGO background having worked and volunteered at NGOs for many years. I am an internationally qualified Life coach and NLP Practitioner specialising with little humans and blended families. This is a skill that helps me to help little humans work through crippling fears, challenge them to think bigger, help them to overcome obstacles, low confidence and insecurities. I am also a mother to two lovely little girls ages 9 and 3 years old. Nothing makes me more happier than being a Mummy and spending time with kids. I am a warm, friendly, patient and softly spoken person, I love kids and I value the importance of family. I am specifically looking for long term placements however I would be very open to discussing any opportunities. If you feel like I would be a good match for your family please do get in contact. Warm regards, Nandi 😊

Why I would make the perfect au pair

My love for kids and making a difference in their lives motivating them to do great and be awesome beings.

I was very happy with Nandi, how she handled my child, and everything she helped us with. There was a lot of improvement in her levels, she just became a happy child. Pity I had to leave haarties, her dedication to her work was amazing.
