Dear Host Family,

My name is Fernanda, I am 26 years old, I am an agricultural technician and currently studying gastronomy. I am a caring and attentive person, working with children, teenagers and the elderly. I love helping families relieve the stress of everyday life, ensuring that their little ones are cared for with lots of love and patience. In addition, I love helping children learn and explore in a safe, welcoming and happy environment. Arts and crafts, age-appropriate cooking, singing and storytelling are some of my favorite activities. I am a great cook, so I am excited to provide high-quality care for your children and the elderly. I worked as a caregiver for the elderly for 2 years and as a maid for 1 and a half years. The activities performed in these two jobs were respectively: Assisting with the hygiene and appearance of the elderly, encouraging eating, assisting with locomotion and physical activities, administering medications, keeping the environment clean and organized, restoring self-esteem and self-care, accompanying the elderly in social, cultural, leisure and religious activities. Prepare meals, menus and snacks, handle food, such as cutting, cleaning, weighing and separating meat, poultry and fish, cook vegetables, greens and cereals, create personalized menus, buy ingredients, control stock and organize the kitchen, clean and organize utensils and kitchen, check items in the pantry and do weekly shopping, prepare special recipes for special occasions. I speak basic English and Spanish, Portuguese. I intend to use the exchange to study English. I currently live in Minas Gerais with my parents, Anete and Antônio, in a rural area. I am willing to contribute positively to whatever is needed.
