Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family Thank you for taking the time to view my profile, I truly hope I am what you are looking for. I'm Lesedi D, a 21 year old woman residing in Springs. I'm fun, outgoing and truly love putting a smile on other people's faces whether I'm in the mood to smile or not. I am passionate and once I set my mind on something I go for it. I believe in letting children express themselves however they would like to but in a respectful manner. I'm very big when it comes to respect and manners. I adapt very easily to situations and welcome change easily as well. I'm flexible to any given situation so you don't have to worry about me panicking under any given situation

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I believe I would make a perfect au pair because of my experience with children. I worked as a child minor which allowed me to deal with different children from different backgrounds. It taught me how to deal with kids who express themselves in different ways without loosing my temper or snapping towards them. I'm also the first born of three children (ages 12 and 6) and that gave me the experience to raise them (whether it be changing diapers, feeding them, babysitting or bathing them). The word perfect may be far fetched but I will strive to be the best au pair you have ever had.
