I want to become an Au Pair in the USA because I enjoy working with children and have a real passion for doing activities with them. I also want to experience what it's like to live with an American family and see if America is the same as shown in movies. I chose the USA specifically as I believe it will be easier to adapt to their way of living and get to experience all of their holidays and be part of the American culture. I consider myself qualified as I am not going for the wrong reasons. I want to be part of a cultural exchange and I'm open and willing to learn more about children's development and being a big sister to younger children.

In my hometown, we were taught that raising a child is a collective responsibility of the community. I strongly believe in this value and would like to impart the same to the children I will be taking care of as an Au Pair. The United States is a diverse country with various communities and landscapes, which makes it an exciting place for personal growth and exploration. Being an Au Pair will not only enhance my childcare skills but also broaden my global perspective and improve my proficiency in English. I possess several strengths that are essential for an Au Pair, such as patience, nurturing qualities, adaptability, organization, and reliability. I am infant care qualified and a good and confident driver.
