Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear family, I am a qualified foundation phase educator with a strong desire to help young people. My nine years of experience and education in childhood development have fueled my passion for shaping the minds of children. I consider myself to be a well rounded individual.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I believe my strong interpersonal skills, gregarious nature and commitment to making a difference in children’s lives make me a valuable au pair. I am able to form unique relationships with children and can therefore assimilate into a household easily. I am well aware of the pressures parents face so it is my goal to ensure that I make it easier for you. When it comes to discipline, I am fair but able to assert appropriate boundaries.
