MARIE, 34 YEARS

Dear Family,

Hi! I hope you are still looking for an aupair. Please consider me. I look forward to experience being an Aupair in Denmark or Norway.

Let me introduce myself. My name is Marie. I am 28 years old, single, speaks very good English and presently residing in Manila. I am a warm, caring, very jolly person, who loves to cook, one who is loving and patient to children and one who enjoys doing housekeeping like cleaning, laundry, tidying and some grocery shopping. I’m fond being around with kids and helping with their needs.

I had gained an education in Nursing and had undergone OJT Trainings is difference government and private hospitals, where mostly assigned at the Nursery and children's ward. However, not being to pursue my Licensure Examination, I had not been working as a nurse. Becoming an Aupair would give me the chance to again make use of my nursing skills especially to babies, toddlers and kids.

I pursued my interest in cooking by taking up Basic International Cookery course which I enjoyed greatly. It gave me the chance to work as Line Chef in a restaurant in Dubai for 6 months. My responsibility includes preparing, cooking, and developing new dishes and menus, monitoring portion and waste control to maintain profit margin and ensuring the high standard of food hygiene and following the rules of health and safety. It was an enriching experience.

Being trained and prepared to become a Nurse, I am very particular to cleanliness and sanitation. I make sure that everything is well cleaned and sanitized. My cleaning was even more improved when I took up Basic Cooking because it is mandatory that the area is well cleaned when I prepare food. I am sure that my course, training and experience will be an advantage to your family.

I am a great cook. I know varieties of dishes, I cooked Asian dishes with a twist of Western. I can prepare many delicious menus such as pasta, different meat dishes such as pork, beef, chicken and fish. I am a good in baking too!

While in Dubai, I worked part time taking care of Ace (age 3 months until he is 6 months).

I am a jolly person and loves children and taking care of them is one of my passions. I took care of my nephews and nieces:

- Kharlo, since birth up to 6 years old,
- Joseph, Beth and Jeffrey from 1 year old to 7 years old,
- Jarrelle and Jiro since 2 years old up to now during every visits,
- Nana, Fidji and Bong since 2 years up to now, and;
- Dwayne since birth up to the present.

I enjoy taking care of them, feeding them, bathing and dressing them and putting them to sleep. I enjoy accompanying them to kinder and school and doing different activities with them, I’m very hands on with children and making sure the environment is safe for them. I can say that I have very long patience with children and sincerely enjoys spending time with them. Recently, I am focusing on my youngest nephew whose been living with us since birth, and he is now 1 year and 6 months, his parents are busy with their business.

I'm kind, honest, positive, flexible, dependable and adaptable person. I am excited to learn new things in life. I am excellent in housekeeping, works with initiative and independently. I consider myself very organized and detailed person. I will be your helping hands to do the general works inside the house. I can help with the cleaning, keeping neat and tidy, laundry, some ironing, shopping and bringing/picking the kids from kinder/school. I can also babysit when you go out some evenings. And I can cook different dishes as well. I have put some pictures on my profile. I love to cook and feels at home in the kitchen. I will be glad to share my cooking menus with your family.

I really hope to know you closer, support your everyday family life. I can swim and with good First Aid training. I love reading books, plays flute, plays badminton and sometimes basketball. I love walking my Pomeranian dog and having bonding time with my family.

I come from a family of 8: My parents, Edith and Luis, are retired; My Mom is retired teacher while my Dad is a chief cook way back. I have 4 sisters and one brother. My family and friends describe me as a responsible, sweet and jolly daughter. They find me as one who takes pleasure in helping with housekeeping tasks and one who has natural eye for what needs to be done. I think my personality is a nice blend of extrovert but at the same time domesticated. Other times I love just staying at home fixing my own things, doing some decorations, arranging things and some readings.

To become an aupair will be a nice avenue for me to share my knowledge and capabilities. I have always dreamed of becoming an Aupair abroad.

I hope you will give me the chance to join your family and be your able support. I will be the loving big sister to your kids who will always be thoughtful of their health, comfort and safety.

I look forward to talk with you soon. My best regards to all!

Marie
