For nine of those months, I worked as an au pair, caring for a three-year-old boy and a five-year-old girl.

I became very confident managing daily routines and creating a structured but loving environment. I truly love spending time with children. I enjoy being outdoors with them — going to playgrounds, exploring nature, playing soccer, or simply going for walks. I also love doing creative activities like painting, crafting, and building things together. For me, it’s important that children feel safe, understood, and happy, while also having fun and learning through play. I would describe myself as warm, patient, responsible, and reliable. I build strong bonds with children and genuinely care about their wellbeing and development. I am also flexible and always happy to support families where needed. I would absolutely love the opportunity to meet you and your children and see if we are a good fit. Looking forward to hearing from you! Kind regards, Cynthia
