Dear Family Letter:
Hello there,
I'm Sofia and I'm 21 years old. I currently live in Paris, but I used to live in Marrakech, the sunniest and most magical city in Morocco, and am originally from La Rioja, Argentina. This would be my very first experience as an au pair, but I got a great experience with children, since I have two brothers and a sister, plus many little cousins, which I always cared for. I love spending time with children ! I've been babysitting for 6years, and I've also worked as a live in nanny in France and worked in a kindergarten for a few months. I've indeed got references of all the jobs I've done.
Basically, I think I'm good with children. I love them, I love spending time with them, and I'm kind of skilled to amuse them. I'm very motivated about taking care of them and sharing moments with them. I am an outgoing person, very easy to live with. I have lots of patience and I'm very smily ! My friends often tell me it's difficult to get on my nerves. I'm sociable and willing to share my mixed cultures with you ( My father is moroccan, while my mum is argentinan ), and to learn yours. Teaching you french, spanish or arabic would not be a problem too !
I'm very well-raised and I treat people as I want to be treated. I'm respectful, mature and trustworthy, and I take the children's responsibility very seriously. I come from a very large but extremely close family where I was taught some basic values, like honesty, respect, hard working and positivity !
I have a lot of hobbies - reading, watching movies ( especially funny comedies, thrillers and anime movies ), listening to music ( all styles, except for electronic ones ), travelling, learning new languages, drawing and painting, dancing...
I'm usually not shy at all, and I think I can say I'm very well mannered, responsible and mature. I'm used to responsibilities since I was the oldest child of my family, I'm used to take care of my siblings, also to do a lot of housework.
I'm a student in architecture, second year, and I'm also studying 3D animation at the same time. I also adore mathematics and chemistry, so I can help the children with homework. I used to do a lot of tutoring in high school and used to love it ! In case you live by the sea, I'm a quite good swimmer.
I can speak french, english, spanish, and arabic. I learned french since kindergarten so I could say it's one of my native languages as well.
I love cooking, especially latin-american, north african, chinese and italian meals. I'd also not mind doing some housework, cleaning, iron or whatever else.
I really would like to go au pair, because I like travelling, but don't have the opportunity to do often. I would really like to discover another country than those which I already know, a new culture, new places, and being in a family is a plus since I'll feel safer and more comfortable. I hope I'll find a family which will pick me and give me this opportunity to meet them and to know each other.
Best regards,
Sofia
