Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Dear family I am Julia M, otherwise known as MJ by friends, I have been passionate about art and literature for all my life. I am an agreeable person, the mediator in most situations and I really just love working with children of various ages. I have worked a few jobs which have contributed to my skills in patience, punctuality, and professionalism. I love meeting new people and just picking their brains about random everyday things of life.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I would make the perfect au pair because I have experience in the filed, I interact well with people, I believe in good manners, and showing people I'm around kindness and empathy. I am not stingy with my smile and being pleasant to others is something I think is just necessary and children learn the most from a happy environment. ultimately I would make the perfect au pair because I have just loved working with children all these years as a tutor and babysitter in my community.

Hobbies and other interests

I am a big art fanatic, I love making art in the form of paintings, sketches, etc. and I am not afraid to try new mediums every now and again. I do portraits of people and I customize shoes and clothes as well with my fabric paint. I have always loved reading and to this day Charlie and the chocolate factory is still one of my favorites. I love writing as well and uploading my poetry to Instagram whenever I get the chance to.
