My name is María and I am excited about possibly becoming an au pair in your wonderful family. I believe my skills, experiences, and enthusiasm make me an excellent fit for this role.

I have always enjoyed working with children and have had various opportunities to do so over the years. I have experience teaching English to children, an activity that has strengthened my patience, creativity, and ability to communicate effectively in a fun and engaging way. Additionally, as the older sibling and cousin in my family, I often take care of my younger brothers and cousins, which has taught me to be responsible, empathetic, and proactive when it comes to their well-being.

Moreover, my role as a Program Leader at the Robertson Center for Intercultural Leadership and Programs at International House, Berkeley, has helped me develop valuable soft skills such as leadership, adaptability, cultural sensitivity, and conflict resolution. Working with individuals from diverse backgrounds has deepened my ability to approach situations with empathy and a collaborative mindset.
