ROWENA, 36 YEARS

Dear potential host family,

About me, well my name is Rowena. I am from the Philippines. I am Single and never been married. I am High School graduate. I came from a large family. I am the second child of 12 :) I am independent and caring woman. I am someone who really love children and enjoy the company of children and I believe this is what is the most important to you as a parents. I know my way around a house and can do general household tasks without having to get me pointed out repeatedly :) I have experienced with larger families or handling many children.

MY FIRST WORK EXPERIENCE

I worked in the Philippines. I served a family containing 5 members. Both parents work full time, and the children attend school. My duties are; taking care with 3 boys, bring them to school and pick up them after school. While they are doing their own homework’s from school, I prepare their snacks and accompanying them again if they have activities. The main tasks is cleaning the house, washing clothes, ironing, & taking care of the dog. I worked with them for many years then I decided to work overseas.

MY SECOND WORK EXPERIENCE

I worked as a Helper is in Hong Kong. I served a family containing 4 members. 1 child, ages 4 years old a girl and her parents, and a Grandmother. Every day, I woke up 5:30 am because the kid has school and I send her in the school bus station around 7:00 am while she’s in school. I go to market to buy for food for our dinner. When I finished marketing, I clean the house, water the plants, ironing and cook lunch for the kid before I pick up her again from her school bus. She comes back around 11:30 am and I bring to her in the activities class for one hour. When she finished we go home together then doing with her assignment from school. When she finished her homework’s, I start prepare for dinner while she’s watching educational / good movies. It’s also my responsibilities to bath her and read her some story telling then I sleep beside her. I finished all my duties around 11:00 pm

MY THIRD WORK EXPERIENCE

I am currently working as a helper in Macau, I am serving a family consists of mum, dad and 1 child a 2 years old boy and his name is Lei Kuan Long. I sleep beside this kid. In the middle of the night, I wake up 3 times because I need to make him some milk. My job here includes, I clean the house, watering the plants, washing clothes, ironing. Every night, we always eat dinners in Grandma´s house then go back home to my employer´s house. But now, the boy goes to school I bring him around 8:30 and pick him up around 11:30 feed his lunch then make him sleep, when he wake up around 5:00 pm I bring to the park to play for a while then go back to Grandma´s house and gave him for his dinner and bathing him.

Soon my employment contract with this family is ending that is why I am now looking for a new family in Europe.

I am genuinely interested in learning your language and culture, and in return share some of my own if you are interested. I would be grateful to lend a helping hand to your family.
