PAULA, 28 YEARS

Dear Family, Hello! My name is Paula Marie, I am 25 years old, living with my mother and two dogs in a small city in the southernmost of the Philippines. I am a happy, friendly, positive, trustworthy and adventurous person. I am a very caring, sweet, and independent person who works with initiative and attention to detail. In terms of work, I can multitask and am very flexible. I finished my education in Hotel and Restaurant Management. I took this degree because I want to learn how to cook and because I love cooking. It would be my pleasure also to prepare meals and snacks for the whole family. I am trained and experienced in Housekeeping; Food and Beverage - trained in both Kitchen and Restaurant departments. My Housekeeping On-job training is at a Top Classy, 3 Star Hotel. I would be very happy to be your next au pair and share my knowledge and skills with your family. I am prepared to take over tasks in general housekeeping like keeping the house neat and tidy, organized and well cleaned, changing beddings, laundry, ironing, toilet, and bathroom cleaning, and shopping. I can handle children ages 0 & 12 years old. I had the experience of taking care of Harley (9 mos.) and Harshi (1 yr. old). They are my close friend's children. Since she is working, she would leave her children with me and sometimes sleeps with me for 2 days when she is away. In my spare time I go walking, biking, play with my pet dogs, go for a swim on the beach and go driving to new places. I also play badminton. I have spent a month in Japan and I really appreciate knowing new culture that is why I would like to be an Aupair to experience more of other country's cultures and share everyday life with a local family, speak a foreign language, meet new people, take care of children, and handle important responsibilities. Being an Aupair, I understand well that my first priority is my responsibility to my host family. As your future Aupair, I will respect you like my own family and will care for the children as my own siblings, a big sister, and follow your house rules. Living with me is easy and you can expect that I will value loyalty, honesty, and open communication so we will understand and support each other well. I would be happy to have an opportunity to speak with you and answer any questions that you may have about my experiences. I am looking forward to hearing from you! Paula
