Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Hi My name is Nicole. I am 19 years old and have recently graduated High school. I Aupaired in Hamburg, Germany for 6 months, so do have a little experience ;) My main dream/goal in life is to become a Doctor in psychology. That has been my dream since I can remember. I am going to university in 2025 to make my dream a reality. In the meantime I want to make use of my time in a meaningful way. What better way than helping families out? I am a very adventurous person. I like to go out and see new things, experience new things and meet new people. I have traveled before on my own and with my best friends. I have recently been to Plettenberg Bay in South Africa where I have learned so many new things and met so many people from across the world. So far the best travel vacation I experienced. There’s a couple of things that I like to do for fun. I do these activities on a weekly basis. I love to bake. I have been baking for fun since covid came around and I couldn’t stop ever since. I like reading books. I have so many books that I have started a mini library in my room. Sometimes when I have nothing new to read, I will read the old ones again. I like to learn new languages for fun. My mother tongue is Afrikaans but I can speak English perfectly and fluently. I have learned dutch to a level to where I can speak it a bit, spell and understand what others are saying. Dutch and Afrikaans is almost the same so it was not difficult. I learned a bit of korean to a level where I can write simple sentences and greet others in the language. I have played field hockey for almost 12 years now. Hockey is my passion and the thing I love most in the world (other than my mom). I have played hockey for the u/18’s when I was only 10 years old. I have played for my Schools first team for 3 years in a row. I have played provincial hockey and went on Dutch hockey tours. Like I said I absolutely love hockey! If friends and family had to describe me as a person they would probably tell you that I am a fun, funny and organised person. I would say that my personality is balanced. I like to have fun to a certain level. The reason I say this is because my mother always tells me from having to much fun comes too much crying meaning you can hurt yourself eventually along the way while having fun. I like to make jokes. My jokes are simple but funny. I have a bit of OCD where I like to be organised with everything in my life. I live by schedules and routines. Thats my way of keeping track with everything that is going on. I’m an adventurous person, I observe everything around me, I think before I make choices, I am hard working, I am a perfectionist so I do everything thoroughly, I am a people’s pleaser but also stubborn, I rarely get angry or upset and I am a kind person overall. My parents divorced when I was 10 years old. Both moved on and remarried. I have two younger brothers. One is 13 years old and the other one is now 3 years old. I have babysat them a lot. When my parents would go to work or on dates I would look after them. I would make them meals often depending on what time of the day it was when my parents weren’t home. I always make sure that they are dressed, teeth are brushed and that they have sunscreen on. At night I would usually let them wind down where they can watch TV for only an our or be on their tablets for an hour while I prepare dinner. After dinner the go bath, brush teeth and be in bed at 20:00. I will help wherever I can. With school projects, homework to doing light housework in the house. I recently took a first responders course and graduated from this course to ensure better care in case anything would happen. I hope I have told you everything you wanted to hear. If there is anything else that you want to know about me, please contact me. I will answer you as quick as possible. Thank you for taking the time to know me better. Hopefully I will see you soon! Nicole :)
