Luka (21), studentka, mieszka w Niemcy, szuka pracy jako Au Pair & Niania na okres 11-11 miesiące w Irlandia, Stany Zjednoczone Ameryki & Japonia

Hello there!
My name is Luka and I was raised in a small village in the south of Germany. I’m very much looking forward to working with, learning from and growing close to possibly your family!

My single mother raised me to be independent and hard-working. It has always been normal for me to care for my two little siblings when she is still at her full-time job. I now look after them during weekends and tutor them in mathematics or other subjects during the week.
I know what it is like to manage a busy household when you're a single parent and what it entails (shopping etc) so I'm optimistic that I can live up to your expectations in that regard.

Since I looked after my newborn sister regularly (feeding, changing diapers or getting ready for bed for example) I adore working with children from ages 1-5. I’d love to draw, sing with, read to and of course play with your child. In short: do all the great things our nine previous au pairs did with my siblings and me!

I am very outgoing and motivated to research and learn about pretty much any topic. So if there’s something new you would like me to learn, I’d be very happy to!
I would also make me very pleased to tutor your child/children in the subjects you like. My strengths lie in Music, Mathematics (Sciences) and Languages.

My mother taught me English and French alongside German while I was growing up. In doing so she kindled my interest to explore and live in different parts of the world. It has only been growing stronger the more experiences I’ve had abroad so I can’t wait to meet all of you!

I have wanted to take on a job like this ever since our family hosted our first au pair when I was 9. We have had nine since then from Britain, Canada, France, Madagaskar and the USA (see pictures below). The memories I have from those times, for example listening to pop music for the first time or being taught guitar, are amongst the fondest of my childhood. Therefore I feel like I want to give something back as an au pair that I learnt from the young adults that stayed with us.

I can think of few things as instructive and rewarding for life than connecting with and learning from a foreign family. This is why I stayed with a host family for the first time when I was 13 and lived with an American family for a year as a foreign exchange student at the age of 15. I learned many lessons about adapting to a new family’s rules by trying to get close to every family member. I believe that this has prepared me immensely for working in a different family dynamic and showing true responsibility.
