Great Britain, sometimes used interchangeably with the United Kingdom, is a group of countries made up of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Great Britain is a network of islands located to the north of continental Europe.

Last year I was Au pair in another country. The experience was wonderful and I can only say beautiful things and family memories. They opened their house to me and I will always be grateful. We could not be together as much as we wanted due to the current situation, so now I want to live this experience again, and I cannot think of a better place than the US. It is an opportunity to expand knowledge and culture, to get to know another country better and also learn the language that, in my case, I need it a lot for my future job. Not only do I need a bilingual English, but also I really enjoy spending time with children. So, those things have made this a good way to do it.

The main motivation why I want to be an Au pair is because I really like working with children, spending time with them taking good care of them and having the experience to do it. I enjoy sharing with children. I am very responsible, charming, caring, friendly, cheerful, I have childcare experience because I have been working with children and adolescents for years. I can't wait to be a part of a host family and have the most wonderful experience while taking care of children. I will give them all my love and tenderness, I want that they can see me as their "older sister" be an unconditional person in their life with you can trust and feel happy, and I would love to be part of the family. And to continue learning about the culture, and to improve my English to perfection and to be a more responsible and independent woman, and to grow on a personal level.
