Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

I have a natural love for children and animals. I am caring, helpful and puts the kids needs first. I am dedicated to what I do. I am a hard worker and pays close attention to detail. I get to know each child on a individual level and therefore understand the needs of each child.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I have 7 years pre school experience with ages babies to 4 year olds. I did workshops on autism, teaching and raising a left-handed child, development of gross and fine motor skills, sensory profiling and child abuse. I gave extra literature lessons at a primary school for 1 year. I also did aftercare for 4 and a half years at a private primary school with Gr R to Gr 3's. I was a supervisor at a pre school....

Hobbies and other interests

I enjoy watching a good movie. I love gardening and enjoy playing with my pets.
