Work abroad in Adebukola's family for 10-12 Months starting from Jan 2024 as an Au Pair to take care of 1 children of 1 - 5 years old in Oakville, Ontario Canada

Greetings! We are a family of three, dad, mom and a one year old toddler in Canada! We are a missionary family seeking a missionary au pair who can share in our daily routine. We are Seventh-day Adventist Christians. We are currently stay at home parents since bringing home our little one from the nicu. An au pair would allow us to have time to work on our mission focused not-for-profit work to spread bread and the Word locally. While we have one son and hope to grow we wish to invite an au pair into our home to have more interaction and helping hands.

For fun we like to watch YouTube vlogs, children’s educational programs, church programs and general topics of interest to us. We watch limited cable tv programs such as reality tv hgtv home shows. We don’t really watch cartoons in this house!

For recreation we like to have games nights with friends, go to parks or local waterfronts here in Canada. We are purposefully social and like to do Bible studies with our friends and at home, which is also related to the mission work we do.

As practicing Seventh-day adventists our routine is to rest weekly on the Sabbath from Friday sunset to Saturday sunset. We currently live in a home in the city but are planning to relocate to a country home and have a self-sustaining lifestyle with gardening, milling and bakery.

We are looking for an au pair who is mission-minded to role model to our son, and travel with us when our work takes us on day-trips to attend local markets. Our ideal au pair is trust-worthy, open communicator, patient, attentive and playful to be able to do lots of play activities with our child. We love to help others, and desire an au pair with the same attitude of selflessness. We are looking for a cultural exchange with an au pair and to learn from him or her too. Any unique homemaking skills that our au pair has in sewing, gardening, carpentry or working with animals on a farm are skills that we would love to learn from.

After spending many months with our child in the NICU when he was born prematurely we are recovering as a family and are looking for a missionary au pair who is not just au pairing for the money. We are looking for a cultural exchange with an au pair and to learn any unique skills from our au pair such as sewing, gardening or working with animals on a farm are skills that we would love to learn from.

Besides pocket money, the things we have to offer an au pair is a comfortable space, respect, rest on weekends and evenings and teaching skills to our au pair as interested: such as bread making, plant-based meals, mentorship in career and life planning as former working engineers and in doing self-supporting mission work.

The difference in our lives that we expect from having au pair: is more activity for our son and motivation for our family to have more vacations to take more driving trips through Canada and USA that we would include our au pair as they wish and are permitted to travel (for USA).

The difference we hope to make in an au pair’s life: preparing to reach life goals through our mentorship, meeting new people in Canada as we are active in local churches, travelling to sites in our province of Ontario and nearby province of Quebec, such as Montreal/Quebec City/Ottawa/Niagara Falls/Blue Mountains. If we are fortunate we hope to travel to further sites by driving outside province and USA.
