Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, I am a recently retired social worker with 3 wonderful children and 5 amazing grandkids. Two weeks into retirement I feel that I could be of much more use to a family who could benefit from my expertise. I love kids and in my younger days, I wanted to be an au pair. It never worked out, though. Now that I have time I would like to pursue this dream again.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I am an experienced social worker and this includes a time when I worked at an orphanage. I successfully raised 3 well-adapted children and love spending time with my adorable grandkids.

Hobbies and other interests

I love reading, watching movies, and most importantly spending time with my family. I also really enjoy traveling.
