I have always loved children and want to make a difference in their lives. I have always wondered what it would be like to spend a year abroad in an American home. I believe it would be amazing to experience and learn more about the US customs and traditions. I would also like to travel and see parts of the country. Being an au pair would allow me to do all the things that I love, whilst learning as well. I would love to be a trusted mentor in your childrenâs lives and to be their best friend that supports them in any way possible. Not only would I like to be a positive addition to the household, but I would like to be a positive addition at that moment to your childâs life. I want to teach them about the beautiful and fun things in life.

I am First Aid Certified. I want to become an Au pair to learn more about the American Culture and doing it while I share my passion and joy of working with children and being like an older sister that I always wanted to be. It is a great way for improving my inner strength and getting to know myself out of my comfort zone. I believe that I am qualified and that I have mother like instincts, patience and love while working with children. I have enough strength and determination to fully embrace this opportunity.

**I have experience in caring with children with special needs.** Oscar-Lee, who I helped take care of, suffers from epilepsy, so I am experienced in working with children with chronic illness. I have a cousin who was born with cerebral palsy and I often help look after her. I am a very good singer, I love to be creative and I am very kind and nurturing. I truly love working with children, as it brings me a lot of joy. I want to travel, learn about new cultures and experience living in the USA. I want to learn more about who I am as a person, and I want to challenge myself and grow emotionally. I want to expand my world by making friends with people from all over the world, and I want to form very strong bonds with my host children and parents. I think that I am very kind, nurturing and giving, and all of these things will make me a good au pair.

Comments
I had a volunteer jobs at the kindergartens and at the day cares. I love traveling and I love children even more that is why I decided to au pair because I can do both at the same time in the beautiful country that is the USA. I consider myself qualified, because I have experience in childcare and am independent, responsible, caring, dependable and hardworking. Babies and children crawl so deep into my heart, I can not imagine a life without kids running around, laughing and making you forget about your problems even if itÍs just for a while. I am hoping to gain much more independence from my au pair experience and also gain a second family from it. It would be great to spend a year in America taking care of children, more importantly spending a year taking care of your children and being a big sister for them.

During my free time, I have also taken care of JP (2), I fed him, dressed him, played with him and put him to bed. I had to pick Zakary (7) up from school and helped him with homework. From time to time I was also responsible for Blake (10) and Heath (8). I prepared meals for them, supervised them and helped them with homework. Between 2015-2018, as part of a weekly school outreach, I worked with children aged 2 â 8 years old, I played with them and taught them the alphabet and how to count.

I worked weekly as an Interact community service volunteer with children. From a young age I have always been passionate about children and taking care of them and I knew I wanted to explore the world one day. I have decided to take part in the cultural exchange program in the USA, as I can combine both passions. I believe my strengths are my loving and caring nature, and the fact that I am responsible and mature. These are attributes that will help me to be a suitable candidate for the program. I am super excited to meet Americans and experience them on their home turf. I am putting my heart and soul into this Au Pair journey and I plan to make a success out of it as well as to enjoy and treasure every moment of it as there are not many girls who are as fortunate to have such an amazing opportunity and I am extremely grateful.

My biggest strength is to be disciplined in any projects I attempt and completion of tasks etc.By becoming an au pair I want to help the children grow and evolve in a safe and secure space, by providing loads of fun activities that also help them with skills. Make food with them to help them understand all sorts of nutrition's and benefits that some food can have and keep them save and well cared for. I want to create lasting memories not only for myself but also for the children too. Have them come to me with anything they need or have a problem with. Helping and entreating children is so much fun to me. I love seeing their faces light up when I play with them or help them learn a new skill. They truly light up my day and will always.

Firstly, as you can probably tell, I truly love being around children! It brings me a lot of joy and calmness. I think that I qualify for this program because of my abundance of experience, my love for children, and my trustworthy personality. I want to be an au pair because I have always loved getting to know people from different cultures and backgrounds and I want to get to know as many people as possible from all around the world. I want to travel America, get to know the many different cultures and experience life in one of the most wonderful countries. I want to form a strong bond with my host family and I want them to become my friends for life! Finally, I want to mention that I have experience taking care of children with special needs.

I am very artistic, I am trained in drama and music and I truly believe this is a massive asset when working with children as I can stimulate them and entertain them through the arts. I am very compassionate, empathetic and understanding. I am a very good athlete and I love being active and being outdoors. I am older, which means I am very mature and experienced. I know myself very well, and I know how to handle situations calmly and rationally. I want to become close to my host family and build lifelong relationships with them. I want the kids to trust me and learn from me, and I want to learn from them! I think I am qualified for this role because of my extensive childcare experience, my rational and calm way of handling situations, my zest for life, my empathy and my creativity. I think all of these aspects will make me an asset to a host family and an au pair environment.

I love travelling and experiencing new traditions, cultures, languages and ways of life. The USA is a country filled with many groups of people and I can't wait to experience this diversity and learn about many new cultures. I also want to travel around the country and experience as much as possible while I am there. I am very good with children, they love me and I truly love them! I think my experience and my love for children makes me a good candidate for this program. I have babysat for many years, and I believe that being a camp counselor shows how capable I am looking after children of most age groups. I want to become close to my host family and I want to make many new friends while I am living in the USA.
