Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear family, I understand how hard it can be to entrust the well being of your child to a stranger - especially in the current country we live in but I can assure you, I have been raised with the best morals and respect. I am a go - getter with a nurturing temperament who would put the needs of the family I work for first. I am energetic and someone who has no trouble relating to and trying to help others thanks to my background in psychology. I hope to make this process as easy and stress free for you as possible.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

Simply put, being an au pair isn't just a job taking care of someone else's family members - that makes it sound so cold. I understand how my influence and being will effect the child I take care of, I would love to be a role model that aids parents in raising a child that has all the tools he/she needs to conquer the world. I am of sober habits, have plenty of respect and does not judge nor discriminate. I'm academic forward and have experience in handling situations with different age groups (Head Prefect of both primary and high school)

Hobbies and other interests

I do very much enjoy watching classic movies from princess diaries to die hard (the genre is wide) - I call these classics compared to what is produced now. Also hiking, writing short stories and gaming is something I enjoy.
