Introduction to families
"Dear Family" message
Dear Family, My name is Bella, I have been involved in teaching and tutoring children since I was 16 at a Montessori school. I myself went to a Montessori school which has allowed me to understand the importance of individuality in children, as well as encouraging children to be creative and curious. I am passionate about science nature, art and hand work (crochet and knitting). I am studying online and would love to share all my passions with children. I am very responsible and have very good time management skills. I would look forward to enriching your children's lives
Why I would make the perfect au pair
I've been involved with teaching and tutoring at a Montessori school since I was 16. I myself went to a Montessori school since I was 2 until I graduated. I therefore have a deep understanding of children's individual needs. I am adaptable responsible and caring. I love doing art and nature projects. I have had my drivers license for 3 years.
Hobbies and other interests
Collecting stickers, knitting, crocheting, painting, drawing, beading, reading, science experiment, exercise, clay work and crafts.

I can confirm that Isabella C did Science lessons with the Senior Primary children at C House Paarl. She was always on time for these lessons and well prepared. She made these lessons fun by bringing in a lot of practical experiments. The children always looked forward to her lessons each week. She is soft spoken and a lovely lady. We enjoyed the time that she did her practical here.
