I was an Au Pair in America (2021-2023) I have alredy completed my 2 years with two amazing Host families. I have experience in caring children from six months to fourteen years, girls and boys too. In my first experience, was with Dante, who was five years, and his old sister Milagros, of 10 years old. I do this work from 2018 to 2020. The experience was really great. I organized recreational activities, such as games, crafts and watch some movies. My other experience is when I worked in a kindergarten, being the assistant of the teacher for three months. In that place I took care of children from six months to three years. In the morning, I prepared the baby's bottle, then I changed them the nappy and put them to sleep. And about the bigger children of the kindergarten, what I did was prepared them breakfast, then, we usually went out to play in the garden and I had to organized recreative activities, such a game, paint and crafts. Also, recently I started another expereince with Zoe who is 11 years old and Lucila who is 14 year old, in weekends. This is a occasionally job but made me learn how to treat with bigger children. I love working with children because they know how to get the best out of myself and I try to teach them to do their best. They learn a lot of us, but we learn more from them than we think. To me, it's wonderful see them growing up with us and learning.
In Usa, I take care to 3 girls (2), (4) and (9). My schedule changes weekly but I usually work from 8 am to 5 pm. In the morning, I prepare the breaksfast and drive them to their activities (dance, gymnastic and swimming classes) or school. Then, I pick them up and we have lunch together. The younger girl takes a nap at 2 pm. Meanwhile,I clean up the playroom. At 3.30 pm, I wait for my older host girl at the bus stop. Back home, I prepare some snacks and help them getting ready for their extra activities (dance class, karate, etc). Sometimes my schedule changes because they need me to work at night. I help them to take a bath and put them to sleep. The girls have a very busy schedule during weekdays.
In Virginia with my second host family, I took care 4 Kids. (Girl 9) (Girl 7) (Girl 2) and a born baby boy.
