In my family I am the firstborn child and growing up as the first child I was taught to be responsible and patient with children as I had to take care of my siblings when my parents were working. Taking care of my siblings taught me a whole lot of patience. The smiles and the cuddles was something that made my heart melt and fall in love with children. During my visit in the Netherlands I also took care of my 3 year old niece and it was an amazing experience as we would go to the park and play on the swings and taking her to kindergarten and picking her up was so much fun. I would like to become an au pair in other countries because I want to learn different languages and cultures as well as teach my own culture and language. I also believe this will blend with the course I am studying which is Tourism and hospitality management as I will be able to communicate with different people from all walks of life.
