Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear family, My name is Penelope. I am a Chef and part time Psychology residing in Pretoria. I am fluent in 6 languages and currently learning more. I am a hard working, loyal and punctual person currently work from home which provides me with a flexible schedule. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have about me and as well as learn more about your expectations from me.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I have experience from volunteering at child and youth care centers. I have a very bubbly personality and find interacting with children and the youth in general easy and interesting. I am also quite punctual and have a knack for taking initiative and take pride in my work. I am trained as an advanced first responder (level 3) and currently work from home, therefore have a flexible schedule to work around your needs.

Hobbies and other interests

My interests involve art; music and painting. Whilst other people partake in sports, I prefer cooking and organising things in order to de-stress.
