Personal introduction

To all Genuine families, yes we as au pairs also do get lured in by fraudulent profiles with pictures of real people (parents and their children) making the profile seem authentic. But isn't the case. I think I speak for all au pairs when I say this. When a host family contacts an au pair whom they feel is a good match to them they will not hesitate to have a chat with the potential au pair. But these scammer profiles will come up with the most unthinkable excuses not to have a chat because I personally feel a host family will try anything to get to know the person better whom they want be a part of their family. This is really scary that these scammers have access to open profiles on the au pair sites. And it's not only on this site they have their little operations running on all different au pair websites. Which is really sad because these websites are actually very specific and professional. But this scamming profiles are now really becoming of concern. Also my apologies to genuine host families whom have been in a situation where au pair scammers lured them into an unpleasant trap. I hope all au pair websites do something about this soon. Or take better precautions. Dear Family. I have one year and seven months experience as au pair, I completed my first au pair year in Germany from January twenty eighteen to the end of January in twenty nineteen. I moved back to my home country and I'm now currently seven months into my second au pair quest here in Namibia, which will end by the near of this year :) Main reason why I wish to become an au pair. Is so I can have international and professional experience in the caretaking of children. For I am considering the occupational option of studying to become a child phycologist in future. My personal motivations and objectives to become an au pair. Because children are the most engaging and most intriguing audience you can work with. They have the same right to culture as adults, but their circumstances create challenges that can only be met with by being determine or creative and through integrity. The joy I feel by working interacting with youngsters is that it is always different. Each youngster is unique in their own way. I truly believe that before we even begin to work with children, we need to take a look at our own starting point and where we are coming from. Living in a childhood without a sense of home, I found myself a place of sanctuary. Through caring for other youngsters and feeling compassionate towards their needs. In honest regard. When I ask my self the question. Why I want to work with children. I find my answer to be rooted in Love and compassion. With out a doubt, I really want to work with children because I genuinely care about their overall well-being. Whether it is regarding self-awareness, self-development, identify safety, academic support or meeting basic needs. My passion for working with youngsters will and has always come from a place of love. I hope my profile was of satisfactory and matched all the requirements your family whised in your au pair to become.
