Letter to the family
Originally translated from Deutsch
My name is Juan Sebastian Cárdenas and I am a Colombian native. I am 25 years old and I live in Duitama with my parents, two brothers, a sister and a French bulldog, which makes every day an adventure. At 25, I consider myself a passionate psychologist committed to emotional well-being and personal development. I love making music, reading a good book, visiting new places, trying new flavors, going to the gym every day and making short films. I strongly believe in the importance of a balance between work and enjoyment of life and I am committed to finding that harmony in everything I do.
In recent years I have had the privilege of caring for three wonderful children: Andrés, 6 years old; Majo, 4 years old; and Emma, 2 years old. My time with them has been an enriching
experience full of laughter, play and mutual learning. With Andres, we enjoy outdoor activities such as playing soccer, running in the park, building sandcastles, exploring storybooks, and doing science experiments. With Majo, we delve into the world of imagination by painting, drawing, and crafting, as well as cooking together. With Emma, we play with building blocks, play dough, sing children's songs, and do water games in the garden.
I want to become an Au Pair because I see this experience as a unique opportunity to achieve several important goals in my life. First, I want to immerse myself in a new culture and open my horizons to new perspectives and traditions. In addition, the program will offer me the opportunity to improve my German language skills, which is crucial for my long-term academic and professional goals.
Working with children is something that deeply excites me; I love their energy, their ability to surprise, and their infectious joy. This experience will not only allow me to develop my childcare skills, but also to build meaningful connections with a family and contribute positively to their daily lives. Finally, in the medium term, I aspire to take advantage of the study opportunities offered by Germany to broaden my academic horizons and advance my educational and professional goals
As an Au Pair, I not only strive to provide care and support to your children, but also to build an emotional bond that transcends cultural differences. My goal is not only to be a caregiver, but also to be a role model and to encourage curiosity, respect and openness to the world around me. I am determined to make the most of this opportunity and contribute positively to your family's life. I sincerely thank you for your consideration and look forward to becoming part of your home.
