Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, I am interested in au pair work and taking care of your children in your busy life. I am an open-minded, hard-working, easy going, dedicated and responsible person. I want to establish warm and good relationships with your family. a very patient person. I naturally love children. My passion to work with young children is not motivated by anything, but the joy every child brings. Children easily bond with me because I am consistent. I am very flexible and I cope well working under pressure. Safety comes 1st. I am a 1st hand parent and I am experienced in that every child is different. I have worked with children from infant to 16yrs old. I enjoy working with babies and toddlers too. I have worked with a sensory child and a Down syndrome child.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I am able to articulate responsibilities of a Tutor in assessing student learning needs and weakness areas, referring to library sources, explaining theory, answering to student inquiries, helping with assignments, and recommending learning methods. I work closely and individually with children take note of different children need different ways to improve their knowledge hence taking note of different abilities to work at a certain speed.

Hobbies and other interests

Watching movies. Reading Novels and trying out new cooking methods. I am an outdoor person.
