Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear Family, I am currently in my final year of my bachelors degree, and am looking for temporary work whilst I look for a more permanent position. I have been working as an aftercare and afternoon assistant at a preschool in Constantia, but am now looking to work more closely and to gain more experience with younger children.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I would make the perfect au pair because I am a patient person and I am able to stay calm in times of trouble. I have a passion for working with children, and am always looking for new and fun ways of developing children holistically. Additionally, I think that I would be the perfect au pair because I would always put the children's needs first and make sure they are happy and safe at all times.

Hobbies and other interests

I am hard working and always up for a challenge, I'm creative and like to work in an orderly fashion. My favourite things to do are arts and crafts. I love to cook and bake, I get along well with children and enjoy helping others in times of trouble. I always enjoy a laugh and new experiences.

Employer comments

Sarah it's a very responsible and patient individual. She is not put off by the amount of work it takes to entertain 3 kids. She asks questions and validates anything she is unsure of. My kids are comfortable with Sarah and respect her authority. Sarah has also house-sat for us on ad hoc occasions and is very thorough (from pets to plants). I would highly recommend her.
