MARINA, 21 YEARS

Hi, my name's Marina and I'm Brazilian. Currently, I'm living in Italy but in a few months I'll be moving to Germany. Right now I'm leaving with my parents, my older brother, sister-in-law and my two-year-old niece. So with that I can say that I've had some experiences taking care of children. Not only with my nieces (My sister has two daughters, one is 4 years old and the other 10) but also with other children I took care of over time (usually, neighbors' children), although I've never done it "professionally".



I consider myself a really funny (even though I'm shy haha) and easygoing person. I love children and animals in general, it's great to spend time with them. I'm great at making up games to entertain kids, just as I consider myself good at teaching what I know (especially, new languages. I have some experience with that).

I'm also a tidy person, I have zero problems with cleaning and tidying up.
Even though I'm not a chef, I can cook very well (my mom's international food cook) and I'm a quick learner.

In my free time I love to go outside, ride a bike or to just stay cozy and read a book. I love reading books! all genres, so I would definitely encourage the child to read (obviously if the family agreed).

The reason why I'm doing this is very simple: I want to learn more about the world, I want to help people whit what I can. It's not really about the money, I'm not deeply into it. Even though I'm young, I'm willing to make things by myself and au pair is a way that I found not just to help others, but also to help myself while I'm doing something that I love: taking care of children.
