In 2017 I graduated in Information Technology and decided that I want to follow my dream in cooking. I opened a small catering business where I would receive many orders for work functions, parties etc. I prepared delicious meals, platters and baked goods. I decided I also want to follow my dream of becoming an au pair and experience your lifestyle and I feel that my time to do that is now. I love children and would love the opportunity to work with them, become a part of the family and really make a difference. I want to experience a new country and culture. I have childcare experience, I am responsible and always willing to learn. I am loyal and respectful and always willing to go the extra mile.

I want to become an au pair because it provides me with the opportunity to have a hand in the daily lives of a host family's children while leaning from them as much as they are learning from me. Au pairing provides me with the chance to learn about the American culture from a realistic point of view, and it would also be a learning experience for myself.

I babysat Jenna-May (7) and Kayden-John (2) from September 2012 to August 2018 on weekends and other occasions. This included feeding them, caring for them, putting them to sleep, playing with them, and teaching them. From June 2015 to December 2016, I watched Mikailah (8), Dimitri (8), and Georgios (6) for 20 hours a week. I helped them with homework, making them meals, and taking them to and from their activities. Since January 2017, I have watched Xander (9mths) over weekends, holidays, and sometimes weekdays. I feed him, play with him, change his diaper, put him to bed, take him to swimming classes, and drive him to and from his activities. From August 2017 to February 2018, I watched Ellen (4) and Elizabeth (6) for four hours a week. I would first pick them up from home, drive them to dance and swimming lessons, and help them change after their lessons. Lastly, since August 2016, I have watched Calvin (9) three times a week. This included transporting him to and from school, preparing meals for him, and helping him with his homework and speeches.

I want to be an au pair because everything I do in life should make a difference. I would like to impact these children's life for the greater good, so they can make a difference in return. I also think it's important to understand different viewpoints and cultures in life in order to make better, well thought out decisions, and the host family can learn from me and I can learn from them. I would ensure that the children I encounter are treated with respect and surrounded with love and positivity.

Comments
I want to become an au pair mainly because I have a passion for working with children. I love being able to learn new things and with children you can never learn enough. I have a lot of patience which I believe is crucial when working with kids. I enjoy being active with children and showing them that playing outside can be just as fun as a game on a smartphone or tablet. I believe that I am qualified due to my experience in working with children on an educational and "fun" level.

I am a positive, sensitive, and caring person that loves children. I am very patient with any age child and this would give me a great opportunity to spread my wings in the direction I need to reach my goals.

I would like to become an au pair because I would eventually like to become a teacher, so it can only benefit me to spend time with kids. I have a passion for kids and I am a very warmhearted person. I am very calm and friendly and love children. Also, I was a scout for 12 years and they teach you a lot of skills like, water safety and field first aid, how to survive in nature.
