Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

My name is Marelie and I am an energetic and passionate individual. Currently I am in my third year of studying Speech-, Language and Hearing Therapy at Stellenbosch University. I am very passionate about my degree and being able to help children and adults with various communicative needs. I am incredibly excited about the chance to serve as an Au Pair and my specialized childcare experience to your family.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I would make the perfect au pair because I have a passion for working with children. With a deep passion for nurturing and fostering the growth of young minds, I am eager to create a safe, supportive, and stimulating environment where children can thrive. My 3 years of experience, gained from my work at an esteemed childcare agency, Holiday nannies, as well theoretical knowledge gained from my studies as a Speech Therapy student, have equipped me with a diverse skill set, from crafting engaging educational activities to adeptly managing any situation with care and composure.
