My name is Leah and I am a 23 year old student from Scotland . I have a strong passion for education, cultural exchange, and working with children. While I currently work In a bar (parents I can and will make good cocktails)
, I have previously worked as a children’s entertainer and have plenty experience with children, as my mum is a single portent I have helped raise my brother, now 15. I bring both professional experience and a caring personality to every home and learning environment I join. I'm fluent in English, however I m currently trying to learn both Spanish and German!, I love exploring new cultures, cuisines, and perspectives.
I have previous experience of volunteering to tutor kids 8-13, mainly helping them with homework as well as maths and English- please note my maths skills are a bit rusty.
I am currently doing criminology and criminal justice at the university of the west of Scotland and plan to specialise in human right after this.
I want to become an Au Pair and Live-in Tutor because I see it as a unique opportunity to combine my love for teaching with meaningful cultural exchange. I enjoy being a positive role model and helping children grow in a supportive, educational, and fun environment. Living with a host family also allows for a more authentic cultural experience, and I look forward to learning from your family as much as I hope to contribute.


As a reliable, respectful, and adaptable person, I will bring not only my tutoring skills but also a warm presence to your household. I understand the balance of being part of a family while also maintaining professional boundaries. Your children will benefit from both academic support and an engaging, friendly companion who’s genuinely invested in their well-being and development. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks, contribute to family routines, and make your life a little easier. My flatmate and I have 2 cats and I have plenty of experience with dogs as well so I am also happy to help out with pet care!

I have 4 years of experience working with children of various age groups, however I also volunteered with VTO, a Scottish charity which helps underprivileged children with tutoring and have previously done work experience working with children aged 4-7.
I am patient, organized, and have a basic understanding of educational techniques tailored to each child's learning style. Whether it's helping with homework, language skills, or creative activities, I am dedicated to creating a fun and educational atmosphere. Additionally, my cultural sensitivity and international mindset make me a great fit for a global family environment.

While I would like to Au Pair for the summer, if the right family came along I would be happy to take a gap year at university meaning I can do may 2025-September 2026!
