Hello, my future host family. I’m really waiting for meeting with you! And I hope that me and my page are interesting for you!
My name is Eliza, I’m 25 years old. I am very active and adventurous person. I like different activities, for example walking, hiking, riding bycicle, going to the exhibitions of art. I spent a lot of time with my family, they are very important for me and always give me support. I live in a full family, I have elder brother and elder sister. They have their own families, children. We have very nice relationship. I have 6 nephews and nieces. I have got my first nephew when I was 8 years old. Since that time I spent a lot of time taking care of children. I do love that time.
My last nephew was born when I was 18 and I helped to my cousin take care of her son. During my student life 2014-2018 I worked as a German tutor. My pupils were 7-10 years old. After graduation I continued working as a German and English tutor for children. My youngest pupil was 5 years old and the oldest was15 years old.
In 2020-2021 I worked at school as a German and English teacher. I really loved remembering that time. I still keep touch with my student. 2021-2022 I worked as an Au Pair in Germany. I lived in a beautiful single-mother family with two amazing children. A boy, Michael, was 9 years old and a girl, Alexandra, was 3 years old. It was amazing year of gathering international childcare experience.
Since Oktober 2022 I have been living in Luxembourg as an Au pair as well. I take care of 3 beautiful and joyful girls. They are 3, 5, 6 years old. Their names are Claire, Julie, Zoé. I have great time in my host family. I learn from my host parents how to bring the children up. I love spending time with the girls. In my host family we speak mostly German, but sometimes we speak English as well. Also I attend the Luxembourgish and German languages classes. In my host family I get cultural exchange as well. My host family helps me explore this amazing and beautiful country.
I spent summer 2017 in the USA as a participant of an International student exchange programm «Work and Travel». Already being in the USA I noticed the diffreance in children`s upbringing between russian and american families. And I`m still interested in getting this life experience of parenting in american family.
For me as a for future parent and a teacher it is really important to have international childcare experience and it is very interesting how people from other contries with different culture care about their children, I think we have a lot of differences between us and we can share this for each other. Spending almost two years abroad caring about children with other mentality, culture I became more mature. In my first host family the children are bilinguals, they speak German and Russian. In my host family in Luxembourg the children are multilinguals. They speak Luxembourgish, German, French. It is amazing experience for me as a for teacher and tutor. I love it. I have pleasure from working with children, they give me goals for future and give me good mood and I think this is mutually.
So I can say that I have spent my whole life taking care of children. I received amazing experience being teacher, Au Pair. I feel comfortable among the children.
In conclusion I want to say, that I promise you care about your children, I’m very attentive person and I always do my best anytime for you! I’m very creative person, so I think that your children will be so happy next to me!
I’m waiting for your message. Hope, see you soon, Eliza.
