Personal introduction

I want to be an au pair because I genuinely enjoy working with children and supporting families. I have experience caring for children in Kenya through being an aupair,volunteering, working in a daycare, and babysitting my cousins’ and neighbours’ children. These experiences have helped me become patient, responsible, and attentive to children’s needs. I enjoy engaging children in creative and educational play. I like doing arts and crafts such as drawing, colouring, painting, paper cutting, simple DIY projects, and using recycled materials to make creative items. I also enjoy reading stories, singing songs, playing indoor and outdoor games, and helping children express themselves through creativity. These activities help children build confidence, imagination, and fine motor skills while having fun. I am comfortable supporting children with their daily routines, preparing simple meals, keeping play areas tidy, and creating a safe and caring environment. Being around children brings me joy, and I always aim to make them feel happy, secure, and understood. I would like to become an au pair abroad to experience a new culture, improve my language skills, and learn from a host family while sharing my own culture. I am open-minded, respectful, and willing to help with childcare and light housework related to the children. I believe I can be a positive, trustworthy, and caring addition to a host family.
