Dear Host Family, My name is Maria Jose. I'm 24 and was born in Lima, Perú. Some families already want au pairs in the EU, but I want to try and maybe have a chance. Thank you! I am a graduate in Communication from Universidad Femenina del Sagrado Corazón University. I consider myself a responsible, nice, really patient, and empathetic person. In my daily routine, I'm a dynamic and organized person. I enjoy having quality time with my family and love pets in general. I just love animals so much. I have a cat in my house, his name is Tom and he is 10 years old. I love to play and relax with him; he is so calm.
I have experience working with children. Last year, I was a teacher at the school where I studied when I was 10, with children from 6 to 11 years old. I love working with children because they know how to get the best out of me, and I try to teach them to do their best.

Besides childcare experience, I also love listening to music, dancing, watching movies, travelling, learning about new cultures and ways of life, and meeting new people. I like cooking and practising new recipes. My dream is to live a period outside of my country, to know new places, new people, and new cultures, and improve my English and maybe learn new languages.

I hope that my host family makes me feel welcome from day one and helps and guides me in the first days so that I can gain confidence and create a positive relationship at home over time together with respect and empathy. I look forward to hearing from you! Best wishes, Maria Jose.
