Letter to the family

Dear Future Family,

Hello! My name is Allissa and I was born and raised in Toronto, Ontario. I've done some traveling throughout my life, but would love to experience so much more. Given the chance to work while exploring beyond where I've grownup would be a dream!

In my recent past, I had the amazing opportunity to work as a special needs assistant teacher with students ages 13-21. During that time is when I discovered I love working with kids, and people with special needs.
Initially I was worried to work in the class room. I heard how difficult the work can be, and with no experience I didn't know what to expect. But, from the first day in the class room I built such a beautiful bond with the kids and young adults. I kept hearing from my higher-ups how adaptable I was to the environment. I was consistently praised for my outstanding work.

The experience I got as a student teacher and Au pair allowed me to build traits that make me the perfect caregiver. I can be very adaptable, calm, nurturing, loving, and also firm. which are all great when working with kids.

A recommendation from the family I worked with is below:
“Allissa worked with us for three months from February - May 2022 while we were waiting on the arrival of another Au Pair who was having visa issues. We were impressed with her calm maturity and sense of fun during the interview process. Our experience with her was true to our first impression! She was amazing with our son and they quickly bonded. He adores her. Allissa was responsible and always kept us informed about if she was taking him on a walk, to the park, etc. She took great care of him and was diligent about completing the chores we’d requested as a part of her Au Pair responsibilities. Allissa became a part of our family, and we wholeheartedly recommend her as an Au Pair to any family considering her.”

Experience

My most recent experience was as an Au Pair in Montreal, Quebec, has been life changing. I spent 3 months caring for an 18 month old 6 days out of the week and created a great bond with him and the family.

My duties consisted of daycare drop-offs and pick-ups every weekday. Mornings would typically go like, breakfast and some books/ playing, before we would head out to daycare. A typical day after pick-ups would be a day in the park or a nice long walk around the beautiful neighbours of Montreal. Following that would be dinner than some more playing and reading before bedtime. I would prep meals and snacks, along with daily house duties during my other hours of work. Some of those duties included dishes, sweeping, baby's laundry, organizing.

My experience as an Au Pair was a huge success and I would love to gain more with any future families interested in working with me!
