Hello my dear possible future host-family :),

My name is Sara, 24 years old. My mom is from Spain and my dad from the Netherlands. I was raised in the north of the Netherlands, Leeuwarden.

For two years I have been interested in the Au Pair programme, but never really acted on that curiousity since now.
This year I started university to become an international primary-school teacher. Because of the corona regulations I quit. I couldn't and didn't want to be taught to become a teacher in an online-manner. This has to do with some principals of mine which is important for you to know. I do not have a smartphone, I don't want one. Children (people in general if you ask me) should move around and discover the world by seeing it with their own eyes, not on a screen! The reason I want to be an Au Pair is because I love to play with children and explore their fantasy with them. I also have the certain amount of patience that is needed when working with kids. Most importantly, I would love to help them become self-reliant and caring people. Even if it is just a very tiny part in which I could help. Over the last two years I have had multiple kids to babysit from different ages. Most of them were under 10 years old. Most of them around 2 years old.

Being caregiver for elderly is something I have lots of experience with. My student job was housekeeping for elderly or retarted or disabled people that are not able to do certain chores themselves. I really love this job! Besides the feeling of being purposeful, I think it is an admirable job if you can help your fellow humans. And the stories that come out of people just keeps amazing me. It is a living life biography, wauw!
More experience I have with retarted and disabled people. My father got in an accident (over 13 years ago) and became to a large extend retarted and disabled. My sister and I share his custody and since than we have been taking care of him. He is emotionally very unstable, so I can handle with hectic and unpredictable people very well.

I would really love for you contact me. I'm very excited, have lots of energy, I am adaptable and always willing to learn, to help, to see and experience new things!
Hopefully I will hear from you :)

Warm regards,
Sara
