Hello Dear host family!! I'm Lau Villegas, I'm very excited to live this wonderful experience. Something that distinguishes me is my good mood and sense of humor, that I am very smiling and also the main thing for me is
respect and gratitude. I love taking care of children,traveling and seeing new places, I am from Mexico, a beautiful country. I am ready to meet your family and start this wonderful adventure. One thing that it is important to me to share with you is that I am a vegetarian. I love taking care of others. I am good at solving problems, very attentive and hard-working, and always ready
to learn! I love watching movies, listening to music, and spending quality time with my family and friends.
I would define myself as a smiling, friendly, respectful person who cares about others. I am a very patient, responsible, sweet and warm person. I love fashion and design. I'm very studious, and perfectionist in some things.
My dad's name is José Luis Villegas and my mom's name is Erika Toledo. I have 2 older sisters that I love very much, their names are Abril and Hanna. I love playing board games with them, going to the movies, I really have a very good family relationship (: we respect and love each other. My father is a school supervisor and my mother a fashion designer. I live in the city of Tlaxcala, it is very small and quiet, quite nice, I really like going to the fairs
here,also Tlaxcalan food and Mexican food in general is delicious!
I like to take pictures of the landscapes, play a little piano, because my family is very musical so I have that influence, although I have lost a bit of practice. I still like to sing.
I want to tell you all about my experience caring for children.
I have cared for children from 6 months - 11+ years old.
I like to do many activities with them and that the little ones always have a good time. I am quite respectful with them, I seek their happiness. I really enjoy being in the company of little ones.
I started taking care of my little cousins, playing with them, among other things, then I formally started working as a babysitter at 16 years old, that'show I gradually acquired experience, I always loved doing it and I have always been aware of the responsibility that comes with it.
I have Worked with 4 lovely families!
Firstly I worked with Mrs. Daney who is very sweet and attentive, she 3 beautiful children that I had the opportunity to take care of, Annie, Isa, and Emi, with them I have spent many moments, we have played a lot, seen movies, we have done crafts, cooked, danced, many things!! I feed them dinner, watch them brush their teeth, and take them to bed to sleep. They were part of my first formal experience babysitting, so I'm very fond of them.
I still work with them whenever they need me!
Later, Mrs. María Clara, owner of a restaurant here in Tlaxcala, the city where I live, contacted me so that I could take care of her 8-year-old daughter Mia
in the afternoons while she took care of her restaurant, with Mia the main thing I did. It was playing, giving her dinner, helping her with her homework and also giving her exercises to help to reduce her rotacism. I was with her for a short time.
Later, Gaby, a friend of my mother, contacted me so that I could take care of her little André, 4 years old, at night/early morning, this job is quite occasional, basically what I have to do is take care of and watch over the little one, put him to sleep, be there in case he wakes up prepare milk if he can't
go back to sleep and be there while his parents arrive.
My most recent babysitting experience is with the Jasso family! They are a very nice family. The parents are called Dalia and Limhi, they have 4 precious children, their names and ages are: Dario 1 year old, Octavio 3 years old,
Leonardo 6 years old, and Mateo 9 years old. In this case I do activities with them, crafts, change Dario´s diapers, I help them practice a little English, I
help them with their homework, to resolve conflicts, and just spend quality time with them. i learned a lot of this family.
I have also had the opportunity to be an English teacher on a voluntary basis, in the church I attend with children from 3-10 years old.
I want to be an aupair because I would love to have unforgettable experiences, my main goal is to be able to improve my English, and grow as a person, to get to know another country, and make many friends. as well as being able to form a beautiful connection with my host family, and just feel happy, comfortable and be part of the family. <3
Thank you for reading my letter, I hope we can get along very well and have an unforgettable and amazing year (:
