From the age of 6 to 18, I was a competitive swimmer and achieved a high ranking. Because of this, from the age of 16, I often helped my coach with training younger children. Sometimes I even led the training sessions myself. In 2022, when I turned 18, I started taking courses to become a certified children's swimming coach while also teaching kids swimming. Thanks to the practical experience and the help of my coach friends, I quickly learned how to connect with children and find the right approach for each of them. Sometimes, I had to work with very young kids, but through games, we always achieved results. In the year and a half that I worked as a coach, my students overcame their fear of water and began participating in competitions, where they won prizes and earned swimming ranks. You can see photos from competitions and training sessions on my profile. At the end of 2023, I moved to Moscow and started working as a personal assistant. Sometimes, I helped my employers with their children: babysitting (while the parents were busy), taking them to activities, going for walks, and playing at home. Through all of these experiences, I've realized that I love spending time with children and teaching them new things. I haven't worked as an au pair yet, but I'm sure I'm well suited for this position and could handle it. I ready to be useful and help the host family.

I learned about the Au Pair program from an English textbook while reading a passage with my teacher. The program seemed very interesting to me, and I began researching it extensively. I was incredibly inspired by the idea of traveling to a new country, getting to know a family, their culture, and their daily life, as well as having the opportunity to contribute something positive. I believe this experience will be valuable not only for me but also for the members of the host family. I am willing to help and teach new things, and also to learn from others. That is why I decided to try myself as an Au Pair.

My goal is to improve my English and begin learning other languages so that, in the future, I can share my knowledge with both children and adults. (I am particularly drawn to teaching languages to both foreigners and native speakers.) Furthermore, I would like to write articles about foreign culture, landmarks, and values. Therefore, I will be happy to both learn from your experiences and share my own.
