Personal introduction

Dear host family, I am Isla - your hopefully soon to be au pair! I currently live in the north east of Scotland and I am looking for a job as an au pair over the winter, during a year of travel. I work as a primary school swimming teacher, as well as babysitting/looking after kids - both my brothers (aged 13 and 15) and others (aged 4 and 6). I am very patient and creative, ensuring the kids have fun, whether we might be jumping through space on the trampoline or swimming with deep sea creatures and submarines in the bath before bed. In my free time I love baking, art and music as well as sports such as swimming, running and dance. I happily do any of these activities with children I am looking after - especially if they are interested in them! I am a very positive and responsible person in general, and have a PVG (protection of vulnerable groups) due to my line of work as a swimming teacher. In my time as an au pair I would love to develop my language skills, as well as experiencing (and embracing) a new culture with my new au pair family.
