IRUPE, 30 YEARS

My name is Irupe Gomez and I’m 27 years old. I’m from Córdoba, Argentina. My city is almost in the middle of my country.I get my degree in P.E in 2018. I also study to become a safeguard in 2019. I love what I do and I really enjoy working with kids. I have had experience not only working with children of all ages but also with disabled kids. I’m currently working in a disability center. My first job was as a babysitter. I was 19. I took care of 4 children. After that, I also babysit for twins. This happened before I got my degree. Then I worked in a small soccer school. I also used to be a volunteer helping people who lived in the street. I visited them with a group of people from a Christian church. The program’s name is “Rescate Nocturno” which means nightly rescue. We used to give them food, clothes, blankets and we talked to them about God’s love. Nowadays, I also work in a small soccer school and during summer I work as a safeguard and in a vacation colony. I have had the experience of taking care of children. I also have learned to deal with a group of children so I’m pretty sure that my jobs have given me the skills that I need to take care of kids. I feel confident with my role as an Au Pair because I have experience taking care of children and I really love spending time with them. I guess that they can learn a lot of interesting things with me because I can teach them about my culture and my language, I can prepare them games, teach them how to swim or enjoy sports and what is more important to have a great time together.
