Erika (21 / Sra. ), Italiana, Turismo atualmente em Itália procura trabalho como Au Pair em Australia, Canadá & Estados Unidos 12-17 meses

Ever since I was a child, I’ve dreamed of America. I have cultivated a love of the English language over time and this has led me to participate in summer study holidays in Scotland and England. It was precisely these experiences that inspired this even stronger desire to cultivate my dream.
I always wanted to do a year abroad to improve my English skills, but I never succeeded for the high cost they required.
Thanks to a dear friend of mine, I learned of this fantastic opportunity that allows you to live a unique experience taking care of children. At first, I didn’t believe it, it was impossible that such a thing existed. But I started to search it and decided to try to be part of this world.
My experience with children began a few years ago. A friend of my mother worked all day, so she asked me to keep the little girl both morning and afternoon. Initially, I was a little scared, because it required a very big responsibility. But from the first day, I realized that it is something unique, I loved to spend the afternoons walking with her and teaching her new things. I had grown a big connection with her and this made me grow mentally and sentimentally.
I wanted to continue to babysit during the school period, but I decided not to because I couldn’t devote much time to it, so I did it in my spare time. I still take care of my friends' children (or family friends) when they need it, and it is the most beautiful thing in the world.
I would like to become an Au Pair abroad because I love to travel and learn about new cultures, explore new worlds, get to know traditions, and meet new people. I know it will be an experience that I will carry forever in my heart. Having a second family can be the beginning of something magnificent, even a personal growth.
