Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

I am a dedicated and caring person with Christian values. I am an Afrikaans au pair with experience providing compassionate and reliable childcare. Over the last few years, I often cared for my niece and nephew. I am adept at creating a nurturing and safe environment for children while also assisting with their household needs. I am seeking an au pair position to contribute my skills in childcare and cultural exchange.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I have strong interpersonal and communication skills. I have a healthy sense of responsibility while caring for kids. I am patient and adaptable in various childcare situations. I can create a structured and engaging environment for children. Multilingual proficiency: English and Afrikaans.

Hobbies and other interests

I enjoy reading fiction, writing fiction and poetry, swimming and spending time with friends.
