Introduction to families

"Dear Family" message

Hi family! I am a motivated, conscientious, and helpful individual. I have always been a student of life and because of that, I have a growth mindset with my main attributes being patience, organisation, adaptability, and time management.

Why I would make the perfect au pair

I aspire to become a Dramatherapist who mainly works with children, thus, I passionately advocate for work that emphasises curiosity, creativity, and community-building. My educational background in Theatre and Performance sharpened my interpersonal skills. More specifically, my Theatre in Eduction coursework equipped me with diverse knowledge and skills in communicating with children through the use of storytelling techniques that are fun and engaging. Our supervised facilitation fieldwork taught me to find a balance between being assertive and easy-going, especially when discussing sensitive topics like bullying.

Hobbies and other interests

My hobbies and interests include reading books and exercising my creativity through research and writing for passion projects. I have also developed a keen interest in graphic design and editing videos for social media.
