Maria (25 / Ms. ), Polish, Childminder living in Poland looking for Au Pair & Nanny job in Spain, Netherlands, Italy & Portugal for 6-12 Months

Hi! My name is Maria, I am 25 years old, and I graduated last year with a Master’s degree in Preschool and Early Childhood Education from the University of Wrocław in Poland.

I am an energetic, warm, and open person who quickly builds strong connections with children. I value a relationship based on closeness and partnership rather than authority. I don't see myself simply as "the lady who makes sure the child behaves" — I prefer to actively engage with children through play, creativity, and meaningful time spent together. I enjoy sports and outdoor activities, and I also have a deep appreciation for art and creative expression. What I love most about working with children is their creativity and open-mindedness. I don’t like to impose or give orders to children, but I know how to be firm and patient when encouraging them to do something they’re not particularly want to do.
In every relationship I consider listening, patience, and empathy to be the foundation. This is exactly how I would like to build a relationship with your family.
My desired location for the near future is Barcelona. My close friend lives there, and I’ve visited the city twice already this year. It’s a place that has captured my heart, and I’d love to get to know it more deeply:) However, I’m also open to considering job opportunities in other cities;)
