Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family my name is Danielle and I am looking for a family to assist and to help with their children in a fun and caring way. I am studying teaching so I would also be able to help with homework and tutoring if needed. I am also a good help in the kitchen and dont mind helping where it is needed. I am very attentive, patient, creative, easily adaptable and responsible. More detailed information including references, letter of recommendation, etc. will be given at the interview or through email.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I am a fun and caring person that wants to bring as much joy and love into children's lives as they do mine. I enjoy my time with children and looking after them. I believe in safety first above all as well as fulfilling the needs of your child (ren). I am energetic, organized, compassionate, helpful, friendly, dedicated, honest, trustworthy, responsible and reliable. I have several experiences working with from infants to 15 years of age. I also have experience working with special needs. I can adjust very quickly to new routines, rules and tasks. I dont mind being flexible and I also don't mind doing more than what is expected from me.

Hobbies and other interests

Reading, hiking, swimming, arts and photography.
