I have always had an interest in the USA; its people and the culture. This cultural exchange program gives me the opportunity to combine my two passions; children and learning about a new culture.

I want to become an au pair because the au pair system offers uniquely immersive experience and one gets realistic insight in what life is like in another country. I also love kids and I figured the two combination go hand in hand, its all about the learning experience for me and the time I will spent with the kids. I qualify to be an au pair because of my past interaction with children, I understand children better. Over the years, I have equipped myself with a lot of child care experience to be the perfect match once the opportunity arises.

I always had a big love for kids and enjoyed every moment spend with them. I want to become an au pair not just because of the love I have for kids but also for the lifetimes experience spend abroad.

It would be a great joy helping parents in raising their children and being a part of their lives. I have a lot of experience taking care of children of different ages.

I want to become an Au Pair in the USA because I love children and I have always been passionate about childcare and working with children. I would love to do this in the USA so that I may travel and see a different part of the world, learn about different cultures and lifestyles and develop new skills and find myself in the process. I think I am qualified to do this because I have a lot of experience with children from years of babysitting for friends and family, I am very good with children as I am patient, kind, fun and caring and I am a very reliable and motivated person. I am good at arts and crafts, previous tutoring experience, can teach swimming lessons, first aid certified and I have experience with special needs - my brother had torrets and ADHD growing up and one child I babysat - Josh, had epilepsy. I also have experience catering for special diet needs such as gluten or lactose intolerance and peanut allergies.

I am passionate about children and their personalities. I can calm children down in a respectful manner and my biggest reward is to see them develop into a person. I have a passion to work with children and by being an Au Pair it will give me the opportunity to work with them and learn more about children. I want to go to the USA because I want to experience life from an American point of view. I would like to learn more about the American culture and embrace myself in it.

I am prepared for a challenge and ready to excel in a practical role that will keep me on my toes. By interacting with children throughout the day, I want to be part in helping a child gain their confidence and in the growth of their identity. I want to be there for them whenever they need a caring ear to listen, someone who they trust to confide in with secrets and problems they may be experiencing. I am a people person and would love to be part of an American family for a while.

I have been babysitting since I was a teenager. I am well equipped with knowledge on how to take care of children. I have experience on helping out with homework and school work. I am a fast learner and a good listener, I am 100% hands on when a task is given to me, I will walk an extra mile to help out where I can. I am also very good with arts and crafts and I am able to teach the kids how to play soccer. Ever since I can remember, I loved being around children and helping them in any way I could. I enjoyed every second when I was babysitting children. Being able to be there for them while watching them grow into kind, responsible, and successful people is so rewarding. I am a very open-minded person who likes to learn about other people's cultures. I am responsible, trustworthy, independent, and soft spoken. Every time people is in need of help, I will always be there to walk the extra mile and help in every way possible. This is why I believe that I have what it takes to be a successful au pair in the USA.
