Personal introduction

My name is Agnes Baidoo, I am 25 years old, and I come from a big family of seven children. As the firstborn, I have always had the responsibility of caring for my younger siblings whenever my mother is not around. This experience has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to provide love and support to children of different ages. I truly enjoy being around children — helping them learn, play, and feel safe brings me joy. Over the years, I have gained natural childcare skills through looking after my brothers and sisters, and this has made me confident in my ability to care for children in a host family. Apart from childcare, I love to cook and enjoy learning different recipes from other cultures. I also love singing, even though I don’t have a strong singing voice, and I really enjoy listening to music in my free time. These hobbies make me creative and open to sharing fun activities with children. Becoming an au pair is more than travel for me — it is a chance to share my culture, improve my English, and grow personally while being part of a loving host family. I believe my childcare experience, caring personality, and interests will allow me to create a safe, happy, and supportive environment for the children I look after.
