Bio
Hallo! I'm Anna from Germany. People describe me as calm, organised and reliable, and those qualities help me a lot with children, who like to know what's going to happen next. I enjoy structure, but I also know when to put the schedule aside and play.
I like helping with homework, reading together and explaining things in a simple way. I'm also good at keeping a household running smoothly, from tidying up after dinner to planning the week ahead, so I can be a real help to busy parents.
I'm looking to spend a few months abroad to improve my English and see how families live in another country. I'm easy to live with, I respect other people's space and I value clear communication with the host parents.
Childcare experience
I have three years of babysitting experience with children aged 2 to 12, and I'm certified in first aid, including child and infant resuscitation. I'm calm in emergencies and know how to keep children safe without scaring them.
I often supervise homework for two younger neighbours and I've organised small birthday parties, with games, crafts and a lot of patience. I like working with school-age children but am equally comfortable with younger ones.
Health, allergies, special diets or other information
I'm in good health and have no allergies. I smoke occasionally, but never around children or inside the home, and I respect a host family's wishes about it. I don't have a driving licence.
