| Dear Family,
I am a 21 years of age and I have finished school and received a degree in Early Childhood Education, in hopes to open my own daycare or preschool one day. I love all types of kids, and currently baby sit on a regular basis for over 6 families with a wide rage of children (6mo-11 years). I also have taken courses in first aid, child psychology, children’s literature and behavior management. I love being around kids and playing with them.
A mature college graduate with passion for being around and teaching young children. The curiosity that children hold is an exciting opportunity to introduce them to the world. I am very mature, reliable, happy, loving young woman (who loves to laugh and smile) who absolutely loves working with young children because of their courage and excitement about the little things that many forget to be excited about. I have worked closely with children oling and would like to continue doing so.
What appeals to me about being an au pair (besides working with kids) is the ability to meet new people, see new places and experience as many different things that I can!
Also my references are available once we have talked so as to protect the families I have worked with before. My resume is posited below.
I look forward to hearing from you!
Jennifer
