Luiza (27 / female ), Brazilian, Student - Art / Commerce / Management living in Spain looking for Au Pair, Nanny & Caregiver for elderly job in Denmark, Norway & Sweden for >1 year

Today, I am an Au Pair from two lovely families. A family consisting of a father and a couple of children aged 6 and 8 years. And another, consisting of a father and a mother and two girls aged 5 and 8 years. Both families are related. Every week, I change families and we live in the same yard.

My experience with children is related to relating in English with children, with the objective of carrying out entertainment activities, assisting in personal development, school education and learning a new language. In general, my tasks are: preparing breakfast, and getting them ready for school or for online classes because of COVID19. Perform homework and develop some educational learning exercises such as math and reading, accompanying them in extracurricular activities that include swimming and music lessons. Leisure activities according to the family plan. Bath, assist during dinner and clean the kitchen after meals. Always leaving the children's living rooms organized and clean. Including my room and private bath. Carry out manual activities for children of different ages, face painting, practice sports, play with the dolls, create games and play table games, emphasize their playful imagination with the fictional animation characters they prefer, dress up in cartoons to amuse them and make them happy.

I highlight here some experiences of interpersonal relationship with the family that I will never forget that they were: the walk to see the snow in Sierra Navacerrada, accompanied by the German shepherd dog. The Cinema, the weekend together with both the family and the grandparents on an incredible trip to the other state of the country. The birthdays of each family member celebrated together. The birthday, Christmas and Kings Day gifts and all the countless letters and drawings of the children that I received with much love and care. And accept an invitation from the parents to go to the children's school to give a lecture in a children's language to two classes of approximately 25 students each, about the traditions and culture of Brazil.

Since I was little with 12 years old I started taking care of my cousin because her mother worked, and as always I was responsible, her mother trusted me. And for a long time I took care of her. I love is always in contact with people and in search of learning. And I know that children are the way for that.

During the International Mobility in Spain, I was Au pair of two children, one was 7 years old and the other was 10 years old for 6 months. I continued in Portugal as a tourist for 3 months, I helped one mother took care of two children, one of 4 years and another of 6 years, for some hours per day and take along and pick up them at the school but not contractual.

When I was in Brazil, I lived and helped take care of my grandmother with 83-year-old, she has Alzheimer's and her care is equivalent to that of a child, in many cases the attention dedicated to her is more menial than the child, since an idiotic with this disease requires attention more than special.

And I was youth sociocultural animator at the Church in Brazil. There, I did cultural production of dance, theater, audiovisual and music with teenagers; capturing resources; group dynamics and play with them.
