Child Care Experience
From February 2016 until September 2019, I have been an au pair for Christopher (12) and Chloe (7) for about 20 hours a week. This included fetching them from school, feeding them lunch, helping them with their homework, taking them to after school activities, and bathing them. From July 2017 to 2018, I babysat Karen (12) and Jackie (9) for about 3 hours a week. I kept them busy, entertained them, and fed them snacks and drinks. Additionally, during this time I also watched Reighardt (11) and Jani (8) and Anright (8) and Dreiden (6). Finally, I worked at a congregation with children ages 3 to 10 years old for about 2 to 3 days a month. Here, I prepared their lessons for the week, presented it to them, taught them creative activities, assisted the presenter, and communicated with the parents.

It has been a dream of mine for a long time to au pair abroad and has always been something I have been working towards and I finally now have the opportunity. I believe I am qualified for the program because of my many years of experience, but not just that, I have always know that I will be working with children, and by au pairing I have received a glimpse into my future. I am a well situated and mature young woman who believes that she has the skill set to adjust in the new environment and also to give myself fully in order to invest in the lives of the children I am working with. I am a good planner and organizer, and time investment is very important to me. I know that the impact that I will have on the children will be small compared to the large impact that they will have on my life. Finally, I want to mention that I am first aid certified.

Between June 2017 and July 2019 I attended a missionary project taking care of children ages 4 to 6 years old. It included entertaining them, playing with them, preparing meals, teaching them songs and keeping them safe. I have worked at church as a childminder since October 2019. I supervise and entertain children, sing and dance with them. In 2019 I did an internship at church taking care of children ages 2 to 9 years old. I kept children busy, played with them, read them and gave them meals. I used to babysit Jonathan (3), Ariella (6) and Miguel (3 months) from October to December 2019. I prepared their meals, supervised them, put them down for naps.

I have a natural instinct to care for other people and I also enjoy taking care of children. Cooking was part of my studies and because of that, I like taking on new challenges and adventures. I would like to do something that I have a passion for and being an Au Pair is the perfect opportunity. I want to Au Pair in the USA because I would like to learn more about American culture, customs, and traditions. It would be great to travel through the USA as well.

I really want to make a difference in childrens lives, I love taking care of children. Seeing the world is also something I have always wanted to do. By being an au pair I get the privilege of doing both at the same time. I absolutely love taking care of children and I am very patient when it comes to children. I'm someone who likes to make jokes and who loves making memories with friends and family. I'm very loyal and trustworthy and a hard worker.

I am first aid certified. I love working in childcare and find it rewarding to see a smile on a child's face. I would love to au pair in America because I always wanted to work abroad and experience different cultures and meet people from all over the world. What better way than with the cultural exchange program, I can do what I love doing and explore the USA simultaneously. I want to broaden my horizon and get out of my comfort zone

I choose the au pair program as a cultural exchange opportunity. I would like to be part of celebrations such as Thanksgiving, the 4th of July, Halloween, etc. It will give me the opportunity to build my self-confidence and to gain more independence. It is a mile stone for me to pursue my ambition to become a teacher because I love working with young children and teach and mentor them. I am friendly, fun, warm, thoughtful and polite. I am mature and responsible as well. I am a family-orientated person. I am quiet by nature and tend to be reserved, but I do enjoy the company of people. I enjoy being outdoors and do hikes and traveling.

I took care of him during the day and made sure that he attended all his classes and extra-murals. I kept him safe, helped him with homework, potty trained him, did arts and crafts activities.

I have experience in caring for children with special needs. I am first aid certified. I love watching children grow and develop and would love to make a positive impact on their lives. I would also love to experience the different American lifestyles. I am responsible, caring and very friendly. I have a lot of childcare experience and I truly love being around children. I think I would be a good au pair in another country because I adapt easily, I am fun and I make human connections easily. I can't wait to bond with my host family.

**Still working on her Driver's License** I can teach piano, I can teach voice control and give singing lessons. I am a strong swimmer. I am very interested in arts and crafts and I see myself as a creative person. I have always been someone who likes to test my limits and I really love the idea of seeing and experiencing a new way of life and new perspectives of life. I am a very optimistic person and have a strong personality. I see myself as a go getter and someone who sees the upside in all situations. I use previous experiences to help with problem solving.

I am first-aid certified. I have always been interested in other cultures and I always wanted to get more involved. I think Au Pairing is the best opportunity for that. It will not only give me the platform to grow but also to learn more about other cultures and to be part of a family. I have always enjoyed working with kids. So this will be a good way to work with kids and combine my passion for other cultures.
