Hello! My name's Oliwia, I'm 23 years old and I came from Poland. I have a year of experience as an Au Pair! I worked in Norway for a wonderful family of 5, with 3 amazing, loud and energetic girls aged 3, 5 and 7. My tasks, apart from creating happy memories for my girls, also included light housekeeping and cooking dinner/preparing food for the whole family. Before that, I had the opportunity to work as an Educator in Spain, where I'd conduct classes of Polish to groups of kids aged 2-3 and 4-6 yo in a fun way :) I adore kids, their curiosity, and the ease they have in finding beauty in the simplest things! I am very patient and non-judgmental. I know how important it is for the kid to have space to express themselves and their feelings, so I make sure they have it when I'm around. And, what's even more important for them, is that we have fun :)
