Dear Family,
My name is Clare and I am 54yrs old. I am a married mother of 2 wonderful now very independent teenagers who are now at University in the UK. I now find myself with quite a lot of time on my hands and would love to offer my services of caring for other peoples children. We have lived in France for 16yrs and have seen my children through Primary to Lycée level and know the areas of Gex, Cessy, Segny and Divonne area very well. The schools, parks, doctors, dentists etc. I also know the surrounding areas of Switzerland very well including Nyon, Coppet, Commugny, Versoix and Founex. I have a valid UK passport and driving licence and have my own car, which I am more than happy to use if the family I am working for are living in the villages mentioned above.
If I were to describe myself as a person I would say I am kind, happy, patient, empathetic and positive. I have 5yrs paid Childcare experience behind me, looking after children between the ages of 2 and 8 years old. One family in Commugny for 2years and another family in Nyon for 3 years. Both families are more than happy to provide excellent references. This has been a wonderful experience and given me clarity on the career path I would like to continue on.
It would be a privilege to be offered a position with another lovely family, and may I thank you in advance for considering me.
