HOLLY, 21 ÅR

I am half Danish and English, but I have never lived in Denmark. I understand spoken Danish, but do not speak it myself, so I would love to learn it, while experiencing Danish culture and living in the country. I have just completed an Art Foundation course at university, and wish to go to Denmark for 9-11 months from September 2022, before starting a university degree in September 2023. I am the oldest of 4 children, and I am used to babysitting my and siblings and other children in our village. One of my brothers has special needs, with severe speech and language disorder. I currently work shifts at a local nursing home, where I provide care to older residents, some of whom have physical needs and/or dementia. While working there I have received extensive training on how to provide person-centred care to my residents, food safety and nutrition, basic life support, and health and safety, as well as much more. I have a licence to drive a car in England and the EU, however I won't have a car in Denmark. I would prefer to look after younger children and to get the chance to speak Danish regularly, to hopefully improve my spoken Danish quicker. I’m looking for a loving family, preferably in/near to Copenhagen, since I have family/friends there, and I have identified a language school there, where I will take Danish lessons in my free time.
