Peru
Peru, third largest country in South America, is made up of a variety of landscapes, from mountains and beaches to deserts and rain forests. Most people live along the coast of the Pacific Ocean, where the capital, Lima, is located.

Peru, third largest country in South America, is made up of a variety of landscapes, from mountains and beaches to deserts and rain forests. Most people live along the coast of the Pacific Ocean, where the capital, Lima, is located. Peruvians are, in many aspects of their lives, rather reserved, and will warm up to your family and children with a little bit of time. Typically, your Peruvian au pair will succeed when provided a set schedule and tasks.
On average there are five people per household in Peru. Parents have two to three children and, with strong family values and a high sense of unity, a household may extend from the nuclear family. Peruvians are very proud of their food and cuisine so you can expect your au pair to happily share Peruvian dishes with you.
Peruvian children tend to live with their parents until getting married and starting their own household. But while living with their parents they participate in all chores and help around the house.
Many Peruvian au pairs will have gained child care experience by working/volunteering at a school or day care. They will most likely also have experience babysitting their younger siblings or young relatives, such as their nephews/nieces or cousins.
In Peru, one can obtain a driver’s license at 18 years old, although it’s quite rare for families to have a car available for the children so practicing driving may be somewhat limited. There is a written and driving exam required to obtain a driver’s license. It is always recommended that you discuss your driving needs with your au pair.
Most Peruvians au pairs will start learning English in high school, although many will seek private lessons in order to improve their English skills. Reading and writing will typically be easier than listening and speaking, although the latter should improve rather quickly.

I want to participate in the au pair exchange program because it will help me mature when I go to another country by myself and learn to deal without knowing that my mother will be around to help me. I am very brave and I want to allow myself to grow. I graduated in nursing technique and I am currently working with the elderly. I have a lot of patience, I am very affectionate, I have done theater classes, and I really like dance, music, and art.

I also babysat Mery (1) and Sophia (3) during this time for 12 hours a week. I would prepare snacks for them, play with them, change them, and help them with their homework when they were older.

Comments
I'd like to be an au pair because I think it is a very good experience that not only gives me the opportunity to be better in the English language but also gives me the opportunity to learn a new culture, meet new people, and live with a family outside of mine where I'll learn their customs and taste how they are as a family. I decided to choose the United States as my destination country because I think that the English language is a very important language since it is a universal language with which I can communicate anywhere in the world with.

When I started to study with my current English teacher, he taught me how important English is and showed me the au pair program because he had done one once. Since then, I have had dreams of studying, meeting new people, and learning new cultures. My biggest dream after the au pair program is to get into a university in Brazil to get a degree in literature and teach English to children. With the au pair program, I can have amazing experiences and bring new ideas to teach her in Brazil. I can do this program because I love children, I have a lot of patience with them, and because I would like to work with them in the future. This is the most perfect exchange program for me to do that.

I want to become an au pair in the USA because I feel like I've missed something big because I don't have younger siblings. I missed the opportunity for an exchange year in the USA and for many years I've felt like it's a huge bummer that I wasn't born and raised in America. I love kids and I would love to be a part of a family where I could be the big sister and spend time daily with the children to see them learn and grow. I feel like my strengths would be my caring attitude and my enthusiasm for new things--in this case, the au pair life and its adventures. Now, after 6 weeks with the little ones in kindergarten, I can say I go to work every day with the biggest smile on my face and leave with a sad face because the day is over with them.
Child Care Experience
I worked at a primary school with children ages 7 to 9 years old for 25 hours a week and children ages 8 and 9 for 6 hours a week from April to June 2018. I would help the teachers with their curriculum, help out at fundraising events, supervise the students, coach netball, supervise their games, and learn from the teachers. From July to September 2018, I worked at an all girls school with children ages 6 to 9 years old for about 26 hours a week where I would help the girls learn the curriculum, supervise them, help out at carnival day, and help teach them tennis. I also worked at Creative Academy for the month of January 2016 for 30 hours per week. The children here were 4 to 6 years old and I helped plan and present the lessons, supervised them, and played with them. Currently, I babysit Gaby (10) and Tiago (5) a few times a month, as need, and have done so since 2015. When babysitting them, I supervise their homework, entertain them, and drive them to and from their various activities. Finally, since November 2018, I have babysat Itamar (15), Evitiar (12), and Omar (7) for 3 hours a week. I take them to and from school, provide general child care, and help them with their homework.
Sports, Interests and Hobbies
Reading, being in nature, shopping, watching movies and TV series, being with loved ones, baking, reading, teaching, swimming, netball, and softball.
Comments
I want to become part of an American family because I absolutely love young children which is why I have studied a degree in childhood development. As a 4th year student, I just completed 20 hours of practical teaching and I have thoroughly enjoyed guiding them, bonding with them, and seeing them develop and this is what I would like to do more of as an au pair. I want to be able to travel as well as learn from different people in a brand new setting. I feel like my biggest strength is patience as I believe that children need to develop at their own pace.
Child Care Experience
I worked at a daycare center from April to October 2015 and again from July to December 2016 taking care of children ages 0 to 7 years old. I helped the teacher with education, recreation, meal times and bathing the children. I babysat Laura (3) from January 2017 to January 2018. I played with her and helped with homework. I took care of Francisco (3) and Maria (7) from July to December 2016. I drove the children to parks and movies, helped with bathing, prepared meals, played with the children and helped with homework.

Therefore, I want to give them all my love, I really want to make the difference in your kids life!

The reasons why I want to be an Au pair because I also want to experience the culture of other countries, it will help me in becoming the better me because it will really test how strong I am as a person because I will be away from my loved ones.Explore more places during time off and meeting new sets of friends. I will be able to learn the more complex in and outs of life and how to handle it . I believe being an Au pair will help me being an independent and responsible person. Taking good care of my host family gives me more responsibility. Lending a hand counts even in my own little ways.Throughout this experience I know I can learn a lot from the family and really looking forward to have a harmonious relationship with them. Learning more about life in another perspective which is beyond my comfort zone. And these memories will be treasured forever.
