I enjoy working with children - I would like to become an Au Pair, because I want to travel the world and learn new things while doing something that I love. I consider myself qualified for this job as the time I spend working at the daycare, I from time to time was left alone to look and provide for the kids. I am a very patient person and take full responsibility for each task assigned to me. I want to go to the USA because then I can learn more about the American culture, traditions and customs.

I have a deep desire and passion to not only serve families but to also contribute to the success of their children. I love to see children reach their full potential, not only academically but in all spheres of life. I am a hard worker and believe in doing everything in life with excellence. Becoming an Au Pair in the USA would mean that I am taking a step towards not only life experiences but evolving as a human being. Through this experience I know that I will look back and be grateful for the families I got to share my time with and the life changing mark that will be imprinted on my heart forever. I am looking forward to learn more about the American culture and traditions from my host family.

I love working with children and would like to perhaps open a pre-school in future. I am a loving and caring person and I also go out of my way to help not only people, but animals as well. Visiting new places is also an interest and taking part in the au pair exchange program would be a dream come true. Doing the two things I am passionate about, working with kids and travelling. If my future host family loves animals as much as I do, I shall be in heaven. Engaging kids in arts and crafts is a great joy to me. If I can teach them new concepts in a fun way, I believe it is a day well spent. Baking with the kids is also huge fun.

For the last four years I have been pursuing a career that doesn't full me with satisfaction. The only time I feel as if I'm making a difference, is when I work with children. I connect easily with with all ages of people, but I enjoy spending time with children, I believe that the influence we have on children are everlasting and therefore I know the importance of our influence on children. I aspire to give my best to each child in which ever way they need it. I'm a tenacious person and won't let setbacks or obstacles slow me down. I am a caring and competent childcare provider, experienced in keeping kids safe while nurturing development with age appropriate activities. I have strong verbal and written communication skills, organized nature and pro-active approach to solving problems and managing conflict.
