VALERIA, 24 YEARS

I'm very excited about getting to know you, here is me....... I am Valeria or Vaal. I am 24 years old, and I live in Nairobi Kenya with my stepdad, mother and two younger brothers. i have actually never met my dad. last year December I was supposed to graduate with my bachelor's in agriculture and biotechnology but due to financial problems it didn't happen. but hopefully this December. I have always dreamt on travelling to different parts of the world, learn new cultures languages and I thought it was impossible until I came across various Au pairs sharing their experiences and my dreams came alive once more. I'm happy that my mom is in support of my wild dreams, and I can't wait to have another family in another continent. I would describe myself as caring, loving, friendly, trustworthy, helpful and positive girl. I'm a person with a strong-willed and determined. in my spare time I'm currently learning German, I also love listening to music and I love watching movies. I'm also a professional singer when doing house choirs and bathing. the reason why I want to be an au pair is to gather valuable memories living with a new family in a foreign country, to see your children grow and learn, meeting new people and probably make some friends and to experience your culture. not forgetting I'd like to join a language course if that's okay with you. my experience working with children. when I was in form 3 that is grade 11 in your education system i got a chance to take care of an amazing girl. she was a few months old then and I was thought how to change diapers and bottle feed her. I got to take care of her from 6 am to around 10am when her grandmother would come and pick her up. I completed my high school back in 2018 December in our system when usually have to wait up to august to join our respective institution. during that stay-at-home period, I got the chance to be a teacher and a private tutor. I was hired in a certain organization which was an NGO here in Kibera to help children during the long holidays I would teach a full class consisting of both boys and girls ranging from ages 13- 18 years and I would teach various subject that is math, English, chemistry and biology. chemistry was my favorite subject. that went on for a couple of months. right now, I am taking care of a 3-month-old Declan, and he doesn't require much attention from me so long as I feed him and change the nappies, he will either be playing or taking a nap. it's a full day with him and between his naps I get the change to study German and do various house choirs. in the evenings before the sun sets, we usually take a stroll before I take him back. from 6 pm after I have taken Declan home, I have private lessons with a grade 8 and a grade 11 student. well, that's me for now and can't wait to meet you. i hope we can develop a good relationship and work and live together as a family. I'm looking forward to great couple of months or year with your family. yours valeria.
