Introduction to families
"Dear Family" message
Good Day! I am extremely excited to be meeting you soon! I would like to start off by telling you a little bit about myself! My name is Laylaa Raeesah N. I am a 23 year old female, currently in my final year of my psychology degree Honours. I consider myself to be an enthusiastic, optimistic, patient and compassionate woman. I was born in the Northen Cape but have been living in Cape Town for almost four years now. I have two siblings, one older and one younger. my youngest sibling is 16 years old and we have an amazing relationship. I have three pets who I love! my Labrador dog (Rambo), my boy cat (Leo), and my little kitten (Liyah). Liyah is such a busy body and loves a lot of attention!
Why I would make the perfect au pair
I believe that I would make the perfect au pair, because you can rely on me. I am helpful, punctual as well as patient. I am a person who loves working with children. I am currently in the process of completing my psychology degree, hoping to major in child psychology. With regards to experience, I have looked after children in informal and formal contexts on many occasions. Having a younger brother as well as being the oldest female cousin, has left me caring for younger cousins whenever need be. I attended a school which caters for all grades (0-12). I was head girl throughout my school career, and was often left caring for the younger students. I have also volunteered at orphanages during school holidays, which gave me a lot of experience dealing with babies. From these experiences, I have realised that I have been conditioned to handle different kinds of children characters. I do realise the importance of providing children with individual attention and I am more than happy to spend that time with them. I am also a psychology honours student and have done my practical in psychology at Rylands Primary School focusing on the mental health and well-being of primary school students.
Hobbies and other interests
During my weekends, I always try and get in a good hike, usually with my friends. I am a very artistic being! I enjoy painting and sketching - always getting my hands dirty! On occasion, I spend my weekend afternoons either at the beach, parks or having a picnic at Kirstenbosch Gardens. I enjoy watching movies/series but can always appreciate a good book! I am a very active person. I play a lot video games. I love playing sports, soccer, hockey, tennis and spend a good amount of time at the gym!
