Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

My personality, education and experience makes me the perfect choice for your family. I have numerous au pair references as well as teaching experience. I was the stage two teacher at Reddam House in Durbanville as well as other early learning schools. For the past five years I have been working for an international non profit where I gained lots of experience with children of all ages and worked as part of a core team among university students on campus. I would like to pursue further education part time in my spare time in the future. Hoping for a separate from the main house live in position.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I am truly a warm and caring person with a genuine passion for children and young people. My personality along with my education and work experience has equipped me with the skills and drive to be a top Au pair for your family. I love having the opportunity to form part of the team that is structured around kids to provide the best environment for them to grow, learn and flourish in. If you choose me you will invest in a person who is loyal, educated, caring and hard working. From me they will receive re enforcement, support and encouragement in everything positive they choose to do, whether school work, sport or life in general.

Hobbies and other interests

I always have a creative project going. I paint, draw and do acrylic paint pouring. I do sewing and macrame. I love doing crafts, making clay bowls, decoupage glass est. I walk and do hikes. I love to collect tropical house plants, propagate and repot them, its become a whole science 😋. I love seeing them grow and multiply.

Lisa was an amazing addition to our family. My daughters took to her like an elderly sister. She was amazing in managing time, offering to take the girls out for outing adventures, working together on homework and making both our daughters focused on their work. We highly recommend Lisa for an Au Pair job, and truly think that she will add an amazing energy to the family who will engage her.

She is diligent and reliable to an exceptional degree. Conduct and character exemplary as one would expect from a dedicated and committed Christian. As far as morals, work ethic and integrity, beyond reproach.
