Personal introduction

Hello! My name is Teresa Scognamiglio, a 26 years old fashion designer originally from Italy. I will be moving to Santa Cruz, California, in July to join my partner,who is a staff astronomer at UCSC, where I hope to work as an au pair for your family. My patience, friendly demeanor, creative flair and passionate approach to work make me an ideal au pair. I have previously worked in London as an au pair for 7 months where I took care of a beautiful 8 months old girl. During my stay I cooked lovely traditional Italian meals, maintained tidy communal and play areas, educated her on basic numbers, colours and words and took her out on excursion to public nurseries where she could play and socialise with other children. In addition to fashion and dress making, I love to paint, play guitar and especially enjoy going on adventures outdoors. I find cooking for others very rewarding, and I am always eager to learn and experience different cultures while also sharing my own culture and language. I look forward to the opportunity to get to know you and your family and hopefully work with you all. Your sincerely, Teresa Scognamiglio
