Maria (20 / Ms. ), Brazilian, Student living in Brazil looking for Au Pair job in USA for >1 year

My name is Maria, I’m a 20 years old Brazilian and future Au Pair. I’m a warm and nurturing nanny with experience working with toddlers, children, and teens. I have a first aid training that would help in any occasional accident. I love to help families ease their day-to-day stresses by making sure their little ones are taken care of with lots of love and patience. Also, I love to help children learn and explore in a safe, warm, and joyful environment. Arts and crafts, singing, and storytelling are some of my favorite activities. I can also cook well so I’m very happy to offer high-quality meals for your children!

I have been a nanny for a few years now and I have greatly enjoyed my time working with kids, I truly think that it is a gift to see the world through their eyes. I would help with their laundry, cooking their meals, giving them baths and everything co-related to them. We had a wonderful time together, and they truly became my family as well!

I decided to become an Au Pair because I’m a trustful person with some experiences with all aged children, besides it has always been my dream to get to know the world better, immerse myself in a new culture and of course to learn a new language.

Currently, I live with my dad, Marcelo, and two of my six brothers, Marcelo and Octavio. I took care of them since they were born. I also have an older brother who’s engaged, another who’s living in Sao Paulo and the other lives in Sydney. They support my Au Pair dream!

I’m a very creative person! I worked as a photographer for a very long time in Brazil, but currently, I’m studying to finish College.

Finally, I would describe myself as an open-minded, patient and outgoing person, my family and friends say that I’m very funny too. I also enjoy cooking, traveling and I’m a very energetic and easy-going person! I love to enjoy a day at the park reading a book, or spending the time painting. It all depends on the mood. Spending time with my family is also very important to me!

I’m excited to make my Au Pair dream come true and I look forward to helping your children grow and learn in a happy, healthy environment!

Thank you for reading my letter!
