Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear family I am a mature woman, wife and mother of an Amazing 21year old daughter. My background is a qualified kindergarten teacher. I au paired in The Netherlands for a family with 3 little ones. I have cared for children ranging from newborns to teenagers and have experience with all ages. I have also assisted in managing 3 Hotels in London and have travelled and worked in over 5 countries. I was the Front Office Manager and Banqueting at The Cullinan Hotel near the Waterfront.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I have vast experience in life and am able to handle difficult situations in a calm and effective manner. I am a responsible and reliable person who is patient and caring and have a natural ability to connect with children and adapt to any situation. I am very comfortable with pets and have experience with cats, dogs, fish and hamsters.

Hobbies and other interests

My hobbies include arts and crafts, cooking easy meals, swimming and reading. I have a keen interest in the different massage techniques especially Reflexology and Reiki. In a busy world, taking time out to meditate for a few minutes brings balance.
