Lettera alla Famiglia
~I have Goethe A1 certificate~ Hello, I'm an aupair currently in the Netherlands . I'm looking for my next aupair journey. I have years of experience at babysitting and taking care of children from age 0 to 15 years old. I can provide references from my Dutch host family and other people I worked for.
What do I bring? I bring a lot of warmth, patience, kindness and fun. I guarantee that your children will grow a soft spot for me in no time!
I'm a responsible and caring 25 years old girl. I'm very gentle and loving towards children, I'm a little shy at first but once I get comfortable I become very funny and enthusiastic. I have a good sense of humor and I'm creative. I excell at problem solving and my experience with children makes it easy for me to handle all type of situations. I'm very trustworthy and reliable. I will treat your children like my family and give them all the care and attention they need!
You will see! you will never have to worry about your precious ones when I'm there with them.
No one is perfect though and my weakness is that I struggle with waking up early by myself. Unfortunately I have insomnia, and even with multiple alarms it's still difficult for me to wake up before 8:30 every day. I can wake up early sometimes but i mostly wake up after 8. I'm not happy about it and I keep trying my best but it's still beyond my control. If needed, i wouldn't mind my host mother or children to wake me up earlier.
But if my schedule starts later in the day it would be great!
I want to be an aupair in Germany to learn German and I will take my German lessons very seriously. So I need my free time and days off, to be respected. I'm flexible, and i really don't mind occasional change of plans/routine if I'm needed during my days off or free time but it mustn't happen every week. Unless you would compensate for the extra time I babysit by giving me time off whenever it's possible.
I can cook and would love to make some Tunisian dishes for you and learn some of your recipes, especially your children's favorite meals!
I like to read, draw, play LEGO with children or go outside with them. As i mentioned before, I'm creative and once i get to know your child well, their interests and their personalities, i can always come up with fun games and activities to do together!
I like pets, and plants and wouldn't mind help take care of them if you have.
Oh and I'm vegetarian btw, but you can always eat whatever you want, I don't mind sitting on a table where you're eating meat/chicken or fish etc.. if you prefer eating together.
Let me know if you have any questions.
I'm looking forward to meeting my next host family and creating lots of good memories with them <3
