LISA, 28 ÅR

Dear host family,
My name is Lisa Watoya. I am 25yrs old. I come from Mombasa, Kenya. I am normally a easy going, easy to relate to and gentle person. I love having a good laugh with people who love smiling. I love learning new things and researching. I love going on short peaceful walks because it gives me a chance to meditate and think deeply, I also love playing board games and watching movies. I like participating in sports occasionally to get my heart beating fast. If you care about personality types then I am an infp.
I can speak English, Swahili,basic French and open to learning a new language.
I come from a family of four my mother, my father, my brother and I, I am the last born. At the moment I am staying with my aunt and her four children and I'm helping her to take care of them.
Being an au pair is the best option for me because I get to be a part of a loving family that is willing to hold my hand and to really see how the people live and how they get along with their everyday lives as I help to make their lives a bit simpler. I want to form a special bond with them, and possibly make life time friends with them.
I want to be your au pair because I have almost 2 years experience in taking care of children and making sure that their needs are met on time. Spending time with my four cousins; Marcus-10yrs, Asenath - 7 yrs, Lemuel- 5yrs, Jordan-2 yrs has taught me how to be patient and to understand children's behaviours at different stages.
As I am staying with them, I am the one who helps them with their homework, prepares them for school as well as takes them to school (when needed). I help them to organise their clothes, I read books to the youngest ones and explain to them in Swahili what is written in the story book. I serve them their food and feed the youngest one if he wants to be fed. We also do fun stuff together like watch movies and I answer the questions they may have while the movie is playing, we also go shopping together and go for walks together. We play games like hide and seek, ludo, draught.
If you take me in as your au pair I will be taking care of the kids, picking them up and dropping them off to school, helping them to clean their room, helping them to get ready in the morning, preparing them for school according to how you teach me, play games with them and take them to the park.
I can also take care of some house cleaning, I can load the dishwasher and empty it, help with other things that you may need help with. I am quite pro-active because I am curious and I do love gaining knowledge about how things work.
I have the experience required to take care of your child and some house chores because I have been doing this for almost two years. And I am also patient and kind towards children because I understand that they are growing and they need to be taught with patience, love and understanding. I understand that they don't have all the knowledge that we have and they need a chance to learn. I am willing to communicate with you to let you see that I am real . I hope that this outline about who I am fits your requirements for an au pair because it would be amazing to be a part of your family after Coronavirus and the borders have been opened. Have an amazing day.

Thanks
